The Demolator

December 16th, 2009

For a couple of years now I’ve been searching for the single distortion unit that can embody the spirit of Indefinite Pitch: “over the top”. Today I give you the Demolator, a kind of Distortus Maximus with a dash of Nigel Tufnel. It can go from a light crunch to scare-your-neighbour’s-kids saturation but if anything, this thing is loud! In fact you could plug it straight into a cab, since it’s based on the LM386 Low Voltage Audio Power Amplifier, two of them actually. This also means it will probably start to feed back before the volume pot hits 12:00, but hey—that’s what it’s for. So in a nutshell:

  • high-gain distortion (theoretically capable of 72dB)
  • Gain and Volume controls
  • 9V operation
  • virtually guaranteed to destroy your amp
