Title: Dirtbag Delays, Current Lover, Low Rider
Post by: varfalex on October 04, 2012, 06:16:23 AM
Hello, brothers! I'd like to show you my builds. Actually I made them quite a long time ago but i was travelling in India several months and I just came home. One DMM was made using MN3005 chips, another was made using V3205. Electric mistress built using MN3007 chips. I used acrilyc colors for all my builds. In my pedalmaking phylosophy it's not really a guitar pedal, it's more a small piece of art, just like a pattern. That;s why I don't write anything near controls. thanks!

I really, REALLY like the artwork on your Electric Mistress. It's sensual, but NOT slutty.

Good stuff dude!

I'd love to see India. My GF went with her mate years ago and loved it.

There was a good documentary on real life 'Slum Dogs' last night on the BBC. One of the guys was super enterprising; he was sivving dust from the street where all the jewellry workers wash to get the specs of gold that have fallen of them!

Wow! Holy smokes, the painting on these is great, and they're difficult projects, too.

I love how non-chalant that sounds.

"Oh here's a bunch of stuff I did a while back.  But I was travelling through the mystical land of the Indians Sub-continent, so I couldn't post them until now."

Thanks for sharing them.  I love hand painted stuff.  Whenever I try to hand paint things, especially little metal boxes, it always turns out like crap.

Thanks, guys! I have question to those members who built dirtbag. I can't find 2,7nF caps, I only have 2,2nF. Is it critical part? I'm building third dirtbag for myself (one MN3005 DMM was a gift for my friend, another V3205 I sold). I have two real MN3005 for this build.
