Title: Tr -- treeeeh ---- Square Wave Amplitude Modulator [Non-Madbean]
Post by: midwayfair on October 07, 2012, 03:05:02 AM
CJ's tremolo with shunt mod. 125Bs make me feel agoraphobic.

I've had the board in a near state of completion for a very long time, just never got around to boxing it.

This is actually the second one of these around my house now. One of them will go to my friend Joe Scala, who used the effect on this song (the one on the recording was built by Officer Bukowski):

Basically, he'll get whichever one has the best art. :)

For the hedgehog can never be--

er.

Great work there :) although the insides feel sparse and barren compared to your usual 1590A work :)

Love the paint job, but what's going on with your 3PDT there?

Did it feel like you could climb in and play tennis with all that space in there?

Well, table tennis. But I got smacked in the head with a paddle. I decided to save the roughhousing for when I put a Bazz Fuss in a 1590BB.

lincolnic, the rate indicator LED from the board (black and white wires) is hooked up to be shunted when the switch is flipped. I don't usually like to have effects flash in bypass.

The rest of the bypass is 2/3 of the madbean setup, just moved over one pole because I had already drilled the for indicator LED on this box for where it would have been if I'd used a 1776 Effects switch board.

Oh, that's not what I meant - it looks like the top of the switch is covered with tape.
