When your referring to the last batch run that has the bigger sound what serial numbers are you talking?

Well, judging from this thread: viewtopic.php?f=13&t=7575
It's looks as though the circuit rebuild happened at number 236, but I couldn't tell you how many we're made after that. They all have the different graphic style and the reverse 66-superbee switch so that's an easy way to tell Em apart. They had various different transistor combos but the one I had was fucking killer...still trying to get the guy I sold it to to sell it back to me...lol.

I never really cared for those particular graphics, instead preferring the clean look that Dave designs. The circuits on the other hand, wheeee! Love 'em all!

The last batch was beefier sounding for sure, but I liked older dual SFT version much better.

I got my 66 Lime yesterday. Amazing fuzz box... :freakout:
I was pretty surprised by the lack of low end in the 66 mod. Did the Vox fuzz was as thin sounding as that ?
