I have heard that the Fulltone Ultimate Octaves are really good. Been tempted to buy one once or twice for the Hendrix thing.

...And i've read/heard that the fuel tank is a trustworthy piece of power supply!

T-Rex are some of the finest make products around. Fell in love with them 3 years ago. I purchased a T-Rex Tremster and T-Rex Dr Swamp. Grab it.

If you like the sag in a dying 9v battery check out the Voodoo Lab Pedal Power 2+ Power Supply. I presently use one and am very happy with it. Two outputs are adjustable for your voltage tweaking pleasure. Just my .02

Well....I bought the fuel tank JR and a HomeBrew Electronics UFO Fuzz instead of the fulltone ult. octave.8)

Reviews when they get here.:D

I think this one could be a winner!:|:|

Tyler,
Lots of noise(not good noise;)) complaints for the fuzz side of the fulltone and the opposite for the HB(silent but deadly[:p]). It also seems as if most peeps(reviewers) prefer the fuzz on the HB also...more muff..less face.

Heres a video too....

I'm sure I've mentioned it before but Joel from Homebrew used to be my amp tech before he started his company. My guitar teacher and I were some of the guinea pigs for many of his projects, including the germanium. Great guy- awesome pedals.
