ARC Effects MKII Tone Bender Fuzz
So, I did a demo of the ARC Effects MKII. It's made by Aaron SS (Used666). He let me borrow it for a little, just to see how it compared to the other MKII's i've owned in the past (DAM w/ac125's, Hudson stroll on w/oc75's).
Not exaggerating when i say it's my favorite MKII that i've played. It also uses ac125's, and i honestly prefer it to the DAM. i LOVE DAM stuff, so that is a pretty big compliment from me. basically tonewise--it's got the ultra high gain that i like MKII's to have, it cleans up while retaining low end (something missing from the other mkii's), and most importantly--it has OUTPUT! all the mkii's i've played including the DAM and Hudson didn't have a sufficient amount of output for me, which is the primary reason i sold them. this one has a "q3 bias" knob on the side that adds a ton of output. After about 5 mins with the thing, i knew i wasn't sending it back. Not sure if he's making big production runs of these yet, but definitely worth considering if you're looking for a mkii. ![]()

Excellent...I just bought a ARC Hotcake clone secondhand. This thread is making me even more excited for its arrival. I love the guts in all his pedals. Super clean and professional.

Soldered Sound is for cables only and has no formal connection to the ARC stuff I'm going to be putting out. Really love the demo btw
