Title: aristocrat-ish
Post by: cjkbug on July 01, 2011, 03:40:31 AM
here is a new build of an aristocrat. I did this one similar to the ver. 2 kot I used to own. I traded it for something else and regretted it ever since. it is still a 2 channel pedal but it operates with a bypass switch and a channel select switch. it has a global drive and tone control each done with a dual gang pot. and each channel has it's own volume. I stuffed everything snuggly into a 125b enclosure. of all the kot versions this format is my favorite I set the yellow channel for clean boost and the red channel for overdrive with a slight volume increase.

Thats awesome! You really packed it all in there. I had no idea you could use a dual ganged pot to control two both sides, but it makes a lot of sense! Very creative.
