Plastic guitar pedal casings contain phytoestrogen and it's seriously impacting your testostertone.

Only for that specific Gloom kinda sounding tone. I'm mostly a bassist. I've got a custom built Amp with built in custom fuzz for bass. It sounds like building falling down if I want it to. I have a big muff pi bass version that I'll use with a tuner if I need the killswitch for the fuzz, usually for your slow clean style stenchcore intros. I'm friends with an electrical engineer who makes pedals and amps as a hobby

Also for a more crust guitar tone I've got a really crappy distortion pedal and it's fucking perfect. It doesn't sound heavy, it sounds dirty, the Modtone Speedbox. It makes a guitar sound like a basement demo recording but loud. Black metal bands would also love it. By any normal measure it sucks but for playing crust or bm it's perfect because it sucks so much. Another edit: I looked at reviews and it turns out it's a very well liked pedal

Oh right yeah! We talked about the bass head! Would love to get in touch with whoever built it some time!

He put together the speaker as well. It's all one unit. The head can be separated but is liable to blow most speakers if turned up real high.
