Yes it is a um uh yes...a "vintage David Gilmour signature model delay"...formerly owned by  Eric Johnson . Worth....$800.
Then i think somebody must have rehoused it into a plastic case and slapped American Idol on top of it...and stamped "made in China" on the bottom...now worth...$3.

So is the PT2399 a common chip used in pedals or should I look for a better quality one for future builds?
I am going to try and do a rehouse first for kicks and giggles and look for another for parts.
I guess I will need to keep it at 6V or is there a way to use a 9V and step it down?
Maybe a built in "Devolt"? (noob alert!!!)
I have seen them around before and will snatch  them up if they are only a couple bucks.
I will try to make a You Tube demo as it is first.

I took the pic's with an iPad and they came out perfect. I could read the values and everything.
I guess they don't translate well to Photo bucket.
I thank you for your help though.
I have a DMM...I guess i will need to figure out how to use it now.

Hi all, thought I would share a little find of mine. You pro's will probably laugh.
I picked up a little tiny "karaoke" machine at Goodwill or $3.00.
I grabbed it because it had a knob that said delay...I thought....hmmmm?
Lots of inputs and outputs=fun toy/project.
I may try to do a rehouse with it.
After cobbling some connectors to it from guitar to amp...I was pleasantly surprised.
It has so many different flavours. A nice analog type delay, reverb"ish", echo....and it overdrives nicely too.
It uses 4 AA batteries, but....it works.
I will take it apart and take some pic's.

Feel free to laugh now...i can always salvage it for parts.

Under witness relocation rules...my name is Terry.

Hi all. I was hoping that somebody might be able to help me.
I aquired an old (70's?) Mephis (Coron?) Auto Wah and it has issues. It did not seem to work at first. I replaced the battery lead but the blue wire came off something...not sure what. If I touch the blue wire in various places around the trimmer I can hear it oscilate when guitar plugged in and played. I should have taken a picture first.
The brown wire came off the one pot...volume I believe.
Any advice would be great. I have some really good pic's.
I thought someone may be interested in them too.
Sorry for my noobiness.

Yes I have posted  this question on another site, but no results.
Thnx

that sounds good. I will rethink my direction on this with my new found info.
there was a pedal maker "heavenly tone" (no longer in the biz but still has website) that made the "Koinonia". (google it) and it looked sooo cool.

is a Warhead Univibe project available here at MB?
I read a thread mentioning it then Hendrix and Gilmour...now I gotta git me one.
any direction would be appreciated.

are there ANY effects that can be successfully put into plastic or acrylic box WITHOUT requiring the interior needing shielding?
low gain...?
please feel free to laugh at the noob

good suggestions thnx...oh I dont get discouraged easily. My acoustic has the usual onboard "4 band eq / volume". I tried using just a chorus pedal slightly then into a di box and it was...just not right...?

hi all. I was hoping somebody might know of a decent acoustic guitar pedal project.
is there such a beast? I've looked around but nothing.
probably because its a dumb idea?
something that would just add a bit of eq, tone control, touch of boost...?
And could run direct into the board. (XLR?)

thanks guys, these all look like good suggestions.
fyi, I do also use a Lab Series L5 solid state amp (same what Ty used on the first 4 albums)
I will probably make my decision next week sometime.
waiting to see what else pops up.
later
good members make a good site great.
this is a great site

ok so I want to purchase a pcb from Madbean Pedals. I am a newbie.
this will be my first board purchase.
here is some quick info. I have a US Strat with Duncan Hotrails, playing through a Digitech RP1000 into a Legend A30 hybred amp from to 80's. I want to add a few pedals in the chain.
I also love Ty Tabors from KingsX's tone. I am going to build a Timmy Type pedal on the side.
what is the consensus out there?
I will go with the majority.

thanks
this should be interesting
