Cupcake Compressor

[mshuptar]

Hey everybody! Here's my Cupcake compressor. I had a botched enclosure (the drilling is about 1/4" off center) and was like, "well, I should put something in there." Everything is stock. This definitely adds some "oomph" to my Tele. I also recorded a short demo. Enjoy!

Sorry for the blurry pics - they didn't look so bad when I took them with my phone.

That is very cool. Is it really that noisy, or was something else going on there?

Thanks! My sister drew it with a Sharpie. However, I should have clear-coated it because it smeared a little as I was dry-fitting the off-board components.

I assume that the hum is a combination of my cheap adaptor (Visual Sound 1-Spot) and that particular outlet in my house (my amp sometimes picks up radio signals when it's plugged into that outlet). Any suggestions for reducing that hum?

Better adapter and a different outlet?       But seriously I'd try that first before you go building a decimator,although those are cool too!

Very cool graphics man! 

[lincolnic]

That is one rad finish.

Your sister's artwork is fantastic! I really like the look of this a lot.
