Designer's book of interest

Mark Hammer	Designer's book of interest In the current issue of Vintage Guitar magazine, I came across an ad for a book called "The Stomp Box Cookbook", by a Nicholas Boscareli (or something like that; the print is too damn small for my eyes). It purports to have 38 FX designs including: " Soft-knee compressor w/auto-variable attack & decay, stereo vibrato, spring reverb, six 'designer' tremolos, six unique fuzzes, quad parametric EQ", and "a wealth of ingredients to cook up entirely new pedal effects", and over 500 photos & schematics. It's published by Guitar Project Books in Colorado, and is apparently in the Second Edition, which implies there was a first. Anybody ever heard of this or better yet, seen it? Opinions?

Designer's book of interest

In the current issue of Vintage Guitar magazine, I came across an ad for a book called "The Stomp Box Cookbook", by a Nicholas Boscareli (or something like that; the print is too damn small for my eyes).

It's published by Guitar Project Books in Colorado, and is apparently in the Second Edition, which implies there was a first.

Anybody ever heard of this or better yet, seen it?

Opinions?
