The Inducer is a Limited Edition tube distortion pedal kit designed around a New-Old-Stock 6189W JAN (Joint Army/Navy) Philips vacuum tube.
This 6189 is a premium grade 12AU7 that was ruggedized for reliable operation in military mobile, shipboard, and aviation communications equipment, making it ideal for use in an effects pedal.
This tube is characterized by reduced microphonics, excellent linearity, and long life. When driven hard, as it is in this Limited Edition pedal, it produces beefy distortion. The Inducer uses the same classic circuit as the MODâ„¢ Persuader Kit, but the 6189 gives the Inducer rich distorted fuzz.
There will only be 30 of these Limited Edition kits made and they are sure to go fast. Each has a hand designed box, which will be sure to make you the envy of all your fellow musicians.
Product Reviews
I got one of these kits for my birthday and its a good sounding pedal and very simple even if it wasnt mounted on a PCB. The person who got it for me me chose it because im known to be a tube amp building freak. You could get a good layout and buy all of the parts, probably 70% of which are available right here at this site, for probably 50 bucks.Maybe less if you went with treally cheap-o parts. Even though ive been building amps for several years ive never bought a kit and probably never will. You can do better with less money by sourcing your own parts,and you learn more about the circuits that way. I dont spend less money but i have more to show for it.
