Since I just poster the original Vox Distortion Booster, I figured I’d post the second version while i was at it. Just like the V8161 the V2 is also a Fuzz Face variant. The Vox Distortion Booster V2 is similarly as rare as the V8161, but being a Fuzz Face variant I’m sure we all … Read more
First layout of the new year!! Figured we’d start off right with another classic fuzz. The original Vox Distortion Booster is a Fuzz Face variant unlike the reissue, which there’s a layout posted.

Original info: “The Palisades is something we said we would never do… an overdrive based on the legendary TS808! Gasp! The horror! Another tubes creamer?? In 2014?? Really?? After loads of requests we finally buckled. We ran tests with every popular clone on the market as well as several vintage originals, compared, contrasted and took … Read more
