Transcript of the electronic communication that was relayed to the customer...
The objective: gain, gain and more gain. So much damn gain that it'll split atoms. To achieve this disgusting amount of saturation, the DF-75 circuit is hybridized. But I stress, you will not hear it. The two critical stages, Q1 and Q3 are germanium, Q2 and, the thing that should not be, Q4, are silicon. I had three tag words for the sonic objective of this project. Brutal. Savage. Precision. This equation makes it happen. The fourth gain stage is obviously not present in a vintage Professional MKII, nor in any previous Flesh themed devices. It adds a whole new layer of what the fuck to the experience and gives this Fleshy creation God like volume levels.
With all that said, it should be noted that control for gain, AKA Sustain, is completely different in form and function to that of a traditional voltage feedback circuit (MKII. MKI.5, Fuzz Face, etc.)
In a nutshell, it functions in a more practical and uniform manner, with a very even spread of control right across the rotation of the dial. It's kicking ass even at 9 o'clock.
The overall feel is powerful, the ambience is complex, but the vintage MKII origins can be felt and heard. The low end is heavy but pretty tight. It will not become sticky or lack dynamic response even at its maximum bass setting. It's certainly the Dark Flesh, the next level. Visually and sonically, the evolution is present.
