From the vendor
Sometimes the simplest set-ups yield the most sought-after tone, and it doesn't get much simpler than Tony Iommi's early Black Sabbath sound. A bunch of Laney Supergroup amps cranked to the max, fed by an always-on treble booster and his genre-defining riffs. Well here's a little box of magic that'll give you a pretty good shove in the right direction to capture that tone through your own kit at any volume. Hit your clean or slightly dirty channel with the War Pig and tune to perfection. The circuit features a booster based around a Rangemaster, but adjustable to go from treble to full-range boost, followed by circuitry modelled on preamps of those classic Laneys. Tweak the Precense and Gain to get just where you want and adjust the volume until the neighbours stop banging. The kit is supplied with vertical-mount pots which have round shafts, so you'll need set-screw fitting knobs. If you want the PCB without parts there's a link for that at the bottom of the page. Partial kit: PCB, all board-mounted components, pots. Full kit: As above, plus footswitch and appropriate daughterboard/components for your selected bypass type (see Downloads section for details of those), jack sockets, DC socket, battery snap, hook-up wire, LED. Enclosure (pre-drilled) is available as an option with full kits, and will not take a battery. Knobs are not included. Builds are only available with full kits including enclosure and vertical-mount pots. Please choose appropriate knobs.
