I can tell you that you will hate it and immediately want to sell it to me.
Actually I've never played one, though I've heard it described as a more-modern-sounding HBE with more low end. Considering that the HBE is among my all-time faves, it sounds like a pretty awesome concept.
(And seriously, if it's not for you, I'll be happy to take it off your hands.)

Holy crap! Maybe it's the honeymoon but this module sounds really good! Punchy and clear and more gain than I'll ever need. Friedmans work is hilarious though; looks like the mods were done from the top and it wasn't disassembled, resisters soldered together in series because he didn't have the value he needed at hand, jumpers and exposed legs without any shrink wrap. Overall just not very clean compared to other modders or even my own mods. But... it sound fucking amazing.

This is actually 100% correct in every evaluation of both tone and how the work was done. I've had a few in here for repairs or tweaks through the years. If you like it then it's good right?

Friedman's work in the Marshall side of MTS is amazing?.Certainly not at all neat nor extensive?.
He proves that the stock mods were a great start and just need some tweaks toward taste for each serious player?Scary, Brahma, Judge, SL, Plexi, JTM, etc. all are good starts and Dave totally "gets" them?

Ok, this is just me noodling over my looper. The gain is at about 1:00 on the module but I have the volume rolled back on the guitar and I'm ridding it the whole time. It's all the Scary, even the intro loop. Sorry about all the clams... Enjoy or not.

Very nice indeed. Reminded me a bit of Gary Hoey.
In Dave's defense, I think the "cleanliness" of the module work varied greatly depending on whether he or one of his employees performed it. My HBE, for example, is perfectly tidy inside.

Very nice of you to say! I'm a little embarrassed I posted it
The clip really doesn't represent what the module excels at but I thought it showed it's versatility and softer side.davetheslave

That sounded sweet man.
I'm always jealous of players like yourself who have the gift of fluency on the fast runs while keeping it full of feel and taste

No, I just got it off eBay. I was wondering what to expect while it was in transit.

I'm using the Pigtronics Infinity looper. I love it and it really doesn't colour what you're playing live.

Thanks for the heads-up: I just snagged that one.
Marco, does yours have the "V1-V2" selector in place of the Bright switch, and, if so, what does it do?
