Guitar World review is out...
From the advance copy sent to me:
Miller’s Time Lizard Leg Effects Flying Dragon boost pedal Scores of designers have tried their hand at creating a clean boost pedal. Computer specialist Steve Miller built his unique solution into a pedal called the Flying Dragon. A generous dollop of epoxy conceals the Dragon’s core components, but the circuit’s massive capacitors hint at the pedal’s huge dynamic capacity. Ultra-neat wiring and outstanding craftsmanship demonstrate Miller’s talent and passion for perfection. There’s no battery option; the current of a Boss-style nine-volt power supply is required to light this lizard’s fire. The Flying Dragon’s performance is dictated largely by the strength and style of the incoming signal. With passive single-coils and moderately powered humbuckers, the Dragon boosts the signal with the clarity of a forensic microscope. Active pickups and hot humbuckers can excite the Dragon into boutique-quality overdrive that’s on par with the super-defined gain found in some of the world’s most expensive amplifiers. All types of stringed instrument players are flocking to this new pedal, because whether you dial in a transparent volume increase or use it to accelerate the front-end distortion, the Flying Dragon leaves your instrument’s base tone, and its feel, unchanged. —Eric Kirkland Last edited by Lizard Leg; 06-25-2008 at 10:00 PM. |

Now that's a great vid review! Impressed with the transparency of it, and it put some hair on that Mira while keeping that clean bucker growl intact, nice!

Steve,
Good to see a Louisiana boy doing good. We haven't meet but Tommy with Steel String Services let me demo your pedal before he left to go on tour with Madona. It is an extremely nice boost pedal!

Hamer,
If your friend wanted to try one out, I could add him to the tour that is currently going. It would be a while before it got to him though. Steve |
