Base pedal: Snake Oil Marvellous Engine Distortion
Snake Oil Fine Instruments is a small Australian boutique maker, and the Marvellous Engine is one of their well-regarded distortion designs — but beyond that niche reputation, detailed information is scarce. Compared to the original, this build makes the circuit accessible, though confident description of its specific character would be speculation.
