The Tone control altered treble response while the Volume control regulated the total output of the overdriven signal. The Gain control adjusted the overall gain of the pedal from bluesy and mellow to fat and saturated. MSRP was $249.99.īig Ben Overdrive - With just three controls, (Gain, Volume and Tone) the Big Ben Overdrive offered the simplest panel layout of all the CoolTron pedals. Also included were a channel (Gain 1/2) foot switch and a true bypass effect foot switch. The Bulldog Distortion had seven controls: Gain 1, Gain 2, Gain 2 Voice, Volume 1, Volume 2, Bass and Treble. Channel two had a more aggressive "shredder" fuzz tone with scooped mids. The first channel had a traditional, vintage fuzz tone. CoolTron pedals were designed to operate for a minimum of fifteen hours on a set of four alkaline AA cells.īulldog Distortion - Released in 2005, the Bulldog Distortion had two distortion channels, each with it's own gain and volume controls. While all seven pedals shared the same servo-bias tube circuit, each pedal was equipped with a unique solid-state front-end circuit tailored to the pedal function. Utilizing a single 12AU7 preamp tube, Grindrod's refined servo-bias design was featured in all seven CoolTron pedals. Mieda's servo-bias circuit was further developed by former Vox lead engineer Steve Grindrod. His servo-bias design allowed a vacuum tube to function with a fraction of the voltage and current required for normal operation. The CoolTron concept evolved from a "servo-bias" circuit developed by Fumio Mieda, an engineer at Korg in Japan. A vacuum tube normally required more voltage and current than could be supplied by traditional AA or 9 volt cells.

I HAVE NO MATCHING LEFT HAND FOR THIS ONE.The Vox CoolTron Pedal Series provided a solution to the difficult engineering problem of how to incorporate a vacuum tube into a battery powered guitar effects pedal. I DO HAVE OTHER STYLES LISTED THAT MIGHT BE. THROW IS THE DISTANCE FROM THE CENTER OF THE TUMBLER HOLE TO THE CENTER OF THE HAMMER HEAD. I ESTIMATE THE THROW AT ABOUT 1 3/8 INCH MORE OR LESS.
THIS HAMMER COULD POSSIBLY BE USED FOR A NUMBER OF OLD GUN LOCKS. ALSO THE SPUR HAS NO CHECKERING OR CROSS HATCHING WHICH WAS ALMOST ALWAYS DONE ON HAMMERS TO HELP KEEP THE THUMB FROM SLIPPING. THE REASON I DO NOT THINK IT WAS EVER USED IS BECAUSE IT HAS A ROUND HOLE FOR THE TUMBLER SHANK& THIS WOULD HAVE TO BE ENLARGED& FILED SQUARE TO WORK. I DO NOT THINK THIS HAMMER WAS EVER USED& DO NOT KNOW IF IT IS AN OLD ONE OR A MODERN REPRO FOR REPAIR WORK. RIGHT HAND BREECHLOADING SHOTGUN HAMMER BLANK GUNSMITHING GUN 1 3/8" THROW HERE IS A RIGHT HAND HAMMER FOR REPAIR WORK ON VINTAGE BREECHLOADING DOUBLE BARREL SHOTGUNS WITH EXPOSED HAMMERS. IN THE BOOK A NEW PLATE WAS USED& THE TUMBLER WAS FITTED WITH A PERCUSSION RIFLE HAMMER. more RIFLES THAT SHOWS HOW PARTS FROM A BREECHLOADING DOUBLE CAN BE ADAPTED FOR MAKING AN ENTIRE LOCK USING INTERNALS FROM A LOCK LIKE THIS ONE. IT IS POSSIBLE THOUGH POSSIBLY NOT PRACTICLE TO USE PARTS FROM THIS TYPE OF LOCK FOR BLACK POWDER MUZZLELOADER GUNS SINCE MANY OF THE INTERNAL PARTS ARE VERY SIMILAR. IT DOES HAVE SOME PARTS SUCH AS SPRINGS& TUMBLERS THAT MIGHT BE USEFUL TO REPAIR ANOTHER LOCK. WHILE THERE WERE MANY DIFFERENT SHAPES TO THE OLD SIDELOCKS& IT MIGHT BE DIFFICULT TO FIND AN EXACT GUN THAT WOULD NEED THIS ONE. I AM HOPING SOME GUN SMITH WHO WORKS ON A LOT OF THE OLD DOUBLE GUNS WILL WANT TO HAVE THIS LOCK AVAILABLE FOR REPAIR WORK ON SHOTGUNS.
