The DGTM is one of the smoothest overdrives you'll ever hear or play. This was originally designed for guitar wiz Greg Koch. By popular demand it has been reissued. I've kept the original circuit completely intact. I've revised the original PCB layout to accomodate board mounted pots, but the signal path is completely the same, no revisions.
The Gristle King has been updated per the request of Greg Koch, for whom the DGTM and Gristle King were originally created. This new version now has more gain on tap than the previous versions, yet still cleans up incredibly well with your guitar volume control. The original version was geared towards single coil pickups, but Rev. 3 works equally well with single coils or humbuckers, which makes it a more universal and versatile pedal than ever before. The tone control now has an increased range. The Phat control is Phatter than before. There is more output, or as we like to say "Gravy" that can be applied with this new version as well. The boost circuit and pre/post switch of the previous versions also remain intact. You say you want the boost before the overdrive, no problem. But wait, there are times when post may be the choice because you want a bump in volume for a lead, but not any more gain. No problem! As always, the boost and overdrive can be used together, or seperate, allowing for a range of tones unmatched by other overdrive pedals.
The finish of the pedals has been upgraded to powder coat as standard, instead of the baked enamel of the previous versions. These pedals can take a beating on a pedal board, so I upgraded the finish.
As always, the Gristle King is true bypass, and completely handmade. No off shore production here.
And still for the same price of $229!
Sweet Poi
The NEW Sweet Poi! That's what I'm talking about!
The Sweet POI Overdrive is a variation on the Gristle King V3 Overdrive circuit. The Sweet POI is an overdrive that can be very smooth, or at the flick of a switch more crunchy. There is also a low end boost switch the substantially increases the bass for those of you who like it FAT! Sweet POI is $149 including shipping.
Luxury Drive
Luxury Drive
The Luxury Drive is a clean boost designed specifically to be used along with your dirt boxes. Put the Luxury Drive before or after your favorite OD, for some extra tone. The Luxury Drive is also one of the finest stand alone boosts you'll ever hear. Step on it to add some fat, and just the right amount of treble. It's "treble-licious". Price $119 including shipping.
Parallel Dementia
The Parallel Dementia. This is a unique pedal that offers you the opportunity to blend two effects together in parallel. Say you have an old chorus pedal that does not have a mix control. Problem solved. Plug it into the loop of the Parallel Dementia and mix in just the right amount from dry to 100% wet. Do you want to mix two overdrives together, not a problem with the Parallel Dementia. Price $139 including shipping.
1-800-GAIN (NEW)
1-800-GAIN. Thank You to Tony Pasko for the name. This pedal is my take on what the best of the JCM800's would sound like in a pedal form. The 1-800-Gain does that Brit thing with authority. From "woman tone" to flat out making your hair grow! Price $149 including shipping.
D'Luxury Twin Tremolo
The D'Luxury Twin Tremolo. This pedal is a updated version of the Luxury Twin Rate Tremolo I made previously. It's the same analog tremolo circuit, and the same silky smooth sin wave as before. But, now there are individual rate and depth controls, and individual rate indicators. The depth controls now also get so shallow that there's hardly any audible trem effect. (If you like it that way) The volume control enables you to actually boost the effect level if you so choose.
The revisions to the Twin Rate Trem, were asked for by Josh Smith. (This guy can play!) So, I gave Josh what he wanted. This circuit is also available as a Rockett Pedal product as the "Josh Smith signature Tremolo" www.rockettpedals.com.
The D'Luxury Twin Tremolo is completely handmade, and comes in a hammered green powder coated enclosure. Price $159 including shipping.
Atomic FET-Boy
The Atomic FET-Boy is a clean boost that has a bit more thump than the Luxury Drive. Where the Luxury Drive is more about "treble" boosting, the Atomic FET-Boy is about the "FAT". Add some low end punch to your tone, without getting muddy. Just tight and full of authority. Controls are Volume, Tone, and "Shift", which canges the range of the tone control.

NEW "F" Bomb Fuzz
The F Bomb is an exiciting new Fuzz Pedal designed for the Gristle Man himself Greg Koch. Based on the original FF circuit, the F-Bomb is a NPN based circuit that has incorporated many improvements. RF noise is no longer a problem, you can run it from your pedal power supply. It has plenty of output. Most of all, it's got tone! Turn the fuzz control up all the way and use your guitar volume to regulate the sound. You will be surprised, all the way from an overdriven sound to full on fuzz.
The NPN transistors are hand selected and matched so you get the best tone. This also helps to keep the pedals sounding consistent from one pedal to the next.

Quote from customer Bryan Iverson:
"This is the hardest working fuzzbox in the business. Talk about versatility. I have a vintage Soviet Big Muff and an Austone Fuzznutz, and they're great pedals. They pretty much limit themselves to single note stuff and just get inarticulate and muddy when chording. The F-Bomb, gets all blown out and lusciously filthed up when the fuzz knob is pegged, but you can still chord in this setting and hear individual notes. Then, if you roll the volume back a bit, or even better, back off on your guitar volume it turns into one of the best sounding overdrive pedals you have ever heard. Another cool feature is that when you roll off the guitar volume, the sound even brightens up a bit. How's about a side order of shimmer with your fuzz? It's also a bit of a sonic chameleon of goodness. It paints entirely different soundscapes dependent on what type of amp you're running it into, or even where in your signal chain you put it. I know, I know, gain effects first, but I'll be hornswoggled if it doesn't sound altogether different and at the same time, totally macho and awesome sauce, AFTER my tremolo pedal...I know, weird right? The features keep right on coming...there's an adjustable bias trim pot hidden under the hood for the second silicon transistor in the circuit...tweak that and BOOM, game changer. Totally different voices. I have a couple of Tim's pedals (DGTM, Sweet Poi, 1-800-GAIN, Atomic FET Boy) and this is my new favorite. If you're a fan of filthy fuzz, and a collector of unique dirt boxes, you should get your mitts on one of these foul mouthed vixens, and just watch your tone start cussing like a truck driver..."
