That looks cool, and very beautifully symmetrically balanced too - any sound clips? how does it sound?

Sorry, not enough tech to do clips yet.  CMOS in general has a different "Texture" than other distortions and that is retained, but the LED's take it back in a more conventional direction. (LED's or SI diodes in a Red Llama work.)  This has a nice OD tone at low gain, but at high gain, it sounds like a Red Beast.  Sounds cool without the LED's as well.  Probably needs more treble reduction for most folks.  ;) :icon_cool:
