Oh yeah, well when is your next "sentence" gonna be?
Not sure...SCARF? I'll conjure up something out there that requires a little special "attention". The way things have been lately that won't be too hard...I'm convinced US heavy industry is run by beavis and butthead.

Can I still join (from Europe)? I guess I can have some other Dutch RRF members interested for this as well.

Sure, we will set up a European tour after the US Canada one!

I should have the pedal after the next weekend!

Well... after the OZBass forums Sydney get together, I now have the demo cave Grunt/B-Drive sitting on my desk. You can see how small it is, but don't let the size fool you.
This one is labeled B-Drive MKII, all future ones have reverted to the aptly named "Grunt"
The controls work in reverse! For two reasons. One is that the taper of the pots gave a better response in reverse and the other reason is "why not"...

This one is the basic $69 version with a plain linished finish, other more deluxe finishes are available at extra cost. Note also that Cave Passive are getting into molding their own cases and hope that the price will be able to come down because of that...

I will do a demo video of this pedal in my next break and then we can get the tour started.
Now who is in Canada and the furtherst north? (I going to need a hand the the geography of this tour)

Heres a little teaser of the deluxe cave pedal the "T.V.T.R" Thermionic Valve Tone Replicator.
I will get a demo of the Grunt pedal that will be touring up soon...



You can try to guess the bass if you want...
