Title: Big Muff Pi Ram's Head 'extra creepy'
Post by: sonarchotic on May 30, 2013, 02:02:19 AM
This is a GGG Big Muff Pi Ram's Head. Great sounding circuit and I found this great pic of a Jacob's ram skull. Hidden LED for extra creep!

Totally jealous! Enviro on the top? That is one smooth pedal,if you never even play it, it is just awesome.

That high gloss makes it look sooooo creepy.

Great pedal! I was wondering the same thing Jimi was. Is that coated with Envirotex?

Looks great. I have a huge soft spot for BMP's.. I think I have built more than any other pedal since I started.

Cleggy, a challenger has appeared!

The only way it could be creepier would be to have half a sheep's head. We have a machine at work that splits skinned sheeps heads in half (for the brain), and they look creepier than just a skull.

Extremely impressed at how shiiiiiny it is! I think I need to build another BMP.

Thanks! It is an Enviro type bar top lacquer on top. The brand is Famowood-Glaze Coat High Gloss Finish.
I go wild with the extra every time I finish a pedal with it. Running around the house looking for stuff to lacquer to stuff. Speaking of lacquer my wife just showed me this.
Apparently this is an old Japanese art form. Pretty amazing.
Thanks to the rest of you too! I need to figure out a better way to do water slide decals on dark background. I have to mask off the face, paint it white then apply the decal which gives me an awkward border. Would the white background decals fix this issue?

That dude has a serious goldfish fetish and Hell yeah lowes carries that glaze. I'm going to use it on all of my next builds.  ;D

Yep, Lowe's. Maybe he can't paint anything else that well. Just gold fish. I'd like to see a big tub full of drowning cats. Painted in lacquer of course not for real.

There is a way to get white. Rather than hijack your build report I started a new thread that I hope will be helpful.

Maybe a happily swimming clown. I'm told clowns are funny. This has strayed a long way. Cheers Jimilee!
