Unchained (Madbean Collosalus)

[Matt]

Just finished this one today.  A Madbean Collosalus.  I'm running out of name ideas, so I just went for the VH reference.  I don't know if he was even still using the MXR at that point but I went with it anyway.     had a close call with Q4, had to bend it flat to clear the output jack, oops!

How do it sound? Looks very industrial.

Sounds great, very jet-like.  It's a keeper for sure.

Their is an ever-so-slight noise in the back ground, but I think that's from my power supply.  (Its a boss psa120 that I've used to test all my builds and I think somehow I killed it.   It doesn't like choruses or flangers). Anyway I have 4x4 that I'm going to use when I get my pedalboard put together.  Hopefully that will take care of it.

I've killed a couple of power supplies testing pedals. I'm glad I'm not the only one. They hate phasers too,terrible noises happen when they go bad. I plan on building on of these too. Been looking for that jet sound.

That's righteous. Looks like it could be a control panel for a WWII era steel bomb-shelter door. Such a cool gritty aesthetic.

Absolutely love the rough look on the enclosure!

Funny thing is that my screw up caused it.  The enclosure was supposed to be orange and for a low rider I was building for a customer.  The clear coat kept cracking so I bought a powder coat enclosure for the low rider.  Luckily, the drill layout was the same.  I stripped this one down and was thinking about what color to paint it when I realized that I really liked the look so I just kept it. . So what you see is what's left of the primer coat
