The idea was to make a full size recreation of the legendary B** M***f \"Ram's Head”. Knowing that there are actually four different versions of the circuit within the enclosures from the 70's, I decided to make a \"best of” combination of those circuits to capture what I felt was special about each one. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the original, I used a recreation of the original \"3003\" one layer PCB, carbon comp resistors, big tropical fish capacitors, and of course the mega big original style muff box. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter many, many, requests, 5 years later we have finally made a \"Small Foot\" version of this fat monster tone machine. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor practical reasons, we of course had to sacrifice some of the neat features of the first Caprid, in order to fit the circuit into the pedal-board friendly 125-style box of the Small Foot. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo does it sound exactly the same? No, it does not. If it did, what would be special about the original? However, it does sound pretty damn close. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the small foot we used quieter, metal film resistors, standard size metal film and ceramic capacitors, as well as a smaller (duh) PCB in order to fit into the box. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat does it sound like?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy favorite way to describe the sound is buttered nails. Can be violin smooth and sustaining, but can be raunchy and drivey when you roll the distortion knob back. Med-heavy mid-scoop, heavy saturation on tap.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wren and Cuff","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":6167701389350,"sku":"20WRE011","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2433\/products\/small_ft_caprid_front.jpg?v=1683367201","url":"https:\/\/www.truetonemusic.mom\/products\/wren-and-cuff-the-caprid-small-foot-distortion-guitar-effect-pedal","provider":"Truetone Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
