Re: The sound of NOFX with THE RAT?

Holger	Re: The sound of NOFX with THE RAT? Well I've allready build the MXR-Distortion + (not the same circuit as the MXR Hot-Tubes-Distortion), but this unit, in my opinion, has a worse tone, you need to put an EQ after it. But when I look at the circuit of the MXR-Hot-Tubes, this looks better(maybe because it's bigger). I think I will try it one time. Do you know how the Ibanez Tube Screamer is sounding? I promiss that it has nearly the same sound,but I don't know. There are so many effects... But thanks a lot for your help. Ah, I forgot something: Do you know on which page I can find the Colorsound Overdrive? Because I like the song smile from Lagwagon. It's one of my favourite songs. But the best sounding guitar in a song, is the one in Linoleum from NOFX. Do you know how I can get this sound without a tube-amp? Thanks for your help! Holger
