Only two in this batch because we've only got the Sharkfin half working at the moment. That'll come later.

Loki

The Reverend's favourite, built on a Codtone Expandra PCB. We've not bothered with the switches, instead using headers and jumpers to choose the mode. Funky, love the exaggerated pick attack sensitivity.





More Bacon

A Spitfire-a-like built on Grind Customs Pit Fighter PCB. It's a monster fuzzstortion of massive gain... and bacon.

...Think ive said it before about your builds... very Clean very Pro:). Cool idea with interior jumpers instead of switches. I dont think i have seen that before. Do i spot an smd transistor?

Great job!

It's an SMD optocoupler. You can use the H1F11 DIL optocoupler instead, but the SMD part is the one used in the original circuit so I went with that option.

I still don't like SMD... ;)

As awesome as your finishes always are, I think your wiring is the most impressive thing about your builds. None more neat.

It's a Roger Mayer Spitfire with a couple of component changes as far as we can tell. Sounds very similar to the demos.

Cortexturizer

Just awesome as always. I really love the standard you've achieved, both wiring-wise and aesthetic-wise.
Your's always have the least of wires.
I wonder if a person on the forum will show, who uses no wire at all...everything board mounted...hm...

... you find the oddest pictures, sometimes. What font is that on the Loki? Almost looks like he's sitting on the stomp!

The idea with that is that I'm doing 3 Expandoras and the other two will be Odin and Thor. They're from the Deceiver of the Gods album cover (Amon Amarth).

Ooooh.

I am seriously behind on my Amon Amarth... been on more of a Hammerfall kick the last few months.

Nifty trick with the switches!
Great graphic on the Pit Fighter too.
