or claptout boost, for a more contemporary feel.
Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

Claptown.....
Was that Portsmouth in the early 19th century?

I’ve started doing a mock-up for engraving plates.
I’m kinda liking just the straight Fuzz Bender at this stage, to the point!

I'm not sure what Reg uses, but I'm a big fan of Inkscape for vector graphic work. Free and powerful. Used it recently to design a bunch of dials for amp faceplate.

The pic is just the design program that comes with my hobbiest Cricut maker machine. I did use Inkscape for the original tone bender logos though, I’m a complete novice though so still
Figuring it out.
