Trashy MiniTaur

[DutchMF]

From the "Trashy MiniTaur" title of this thread, i halfway expected to see a very short minotaur who maybe drinks too much, cheats on his wife and can't stay employed! 

If you substitute 'wife' with 'girlfriend', this describes my drummer to the last detail! Well, except the minotaur part, but he does have a questionable pedigree.....

Great build as usual, I keep being surprised at what you guys can fit in a 1590A! Serious question: don't you find using them a bit awkward, small as they are?

Actually, I don't them awkward if they are fixed to a pedalboard.  It's only when they are loose that they can get a bit funky.

Since I use my Jacket pocket (patent pending) my way is different than yours.

Currently licensing the left jacket pocket for less than whatever Dave is licensing the left pant pocket... PM for details.

It's the same old story ; always getting undercut by Canadians.  The pricing isn't the problem, though.  The real issue is that Zamboni keys offer superior aging and they are difficult to find down here.

Don't fault me for being Canadian!

Also, I'm going to be offered real reliced enclosures that are chewed up by my pet beaver before being gnawed by my friends Polar Bear. Real igloo ice for no extra charge!

I'm envisioning that somewhere in northern Canda, there is a beaver dam comprised entirely of Hammond enclosures.

[jkokura]

Well, Hammond is a Canadian company...

Wait, that's a different Hammond.

Suhweet! Pocket licensing price war. I think I'll just sit back and wait this one out. I have a feeling I'll be able to use all my pockets soon at a very reasonable cost.

Old New Zealand fifty cent coins give the best aging. Not the new ones, though, too small.

Nice work as always

How many keys and which coins should I use;)
Great build!!  Love the enclosure.

All depends on what kind of sound you're looking for. If you want that old Marshal sound go with British pounds, if you're looking for more of a Fender vibe then American currency.

the fender sound could be like the British sound, Leo sold the company statue his own, just like the euro, right? Stopped the old money and started all over again???
  Hey Dave, do you play in a band or just play with yourself???

In between.  I don't really have time to play in a band these days , but I do play with a few guys at work sometimes during lunch.  We have a detached building at work that has a bunch of instruments in it, so we go over and play when we can all align our schedules.  Occasionally my boss will join in and, once in a while, we even pull in our mailman (who is a session bassist and better than the rest of us).
