Serial No. 178

The Analogman Sunlion is a Sunface Fuzz and Beano Boost in one pedal housing. This specific pedal has all White Dot NKT-275 transistors.
These are based on two classic circuits (Fuzz Face and Rangemaster Treble Booster) that are excellent as individual stand alone pedals. Combined as in the Analogman Sunlion, they provide a 3rd entity that is similar in gain character to the classic 3-transistor Vox Tone Bender circuit.
Having the Analogman Sunlion is like having a Rangemaster Treble Booster (Beano Boost) an expertly-tuned Arbiter Fuzz Face (Sunface) and a 3-transistor Vox Tone Bender (Sunlion).
The Beano Boost compliments the Sunface very well. It functions as a boost and an adjustable tone filter that helps concentrate the fuzzed signal into a more focused and cutting tone.
The gain code letters on the NKT-275 in the sunface are 'J' and 'Q'.

Mike does great work, I enjoyed the detailed pics of this pedal.
hi guit30, i agree with you along with the many happy users of his pedals and of his services. I am surely biased, but would say it anyway; the Sunlion is one of his top work, beautiful, enigmatic graphics and paintwork and very nice top-jack pedal layout. Sounds awesome too!
Thanks for dropping by! romy
