You guys ever make silly pedals?

[WhiskeyMadeMeDoIt]

A ROG Thor.
Just for fun.
The knobs are labeled rainbows and butterflies and the switches are sparkles and sunshine.

Silliness again ?









A combination of a VOX wah and a RAT distortion in an empty FoXX vintage casing bought at a flea market.

A+!

Thanks Luke51411 !

More details :

The 2-transistors-Fasel VOX Wah has a Voicing 6-pos. rotary switch and a Resonance (sharpness) pot.

The distortion is a RAT 1891 Rev. B (the original circuit) with its usual Distortion, Filter and Volume controls.

The lateral toggle switch allow to shift the order of the 2 pedals : Wah ---> Dist. or Dist. ---> Wah.

The 2 FSW allow TBP in/out operation of the 2 effects.

9VDC internal battery or Ext. "Boss" DC powering.

A+!

cool graphics....

[Elijah-Baley]

cool graphics....

I know why you said that... ASTRONAUT.

Anyway, cool box, too!

Are there three led? Two leds ON and one OFF...? . And what pedal is it?

[gena_p1]

one LED is on/off
others - volume.

It's a "space reverb"  based on spin fv-1

Speaking of space, as of yesterday, every man who has walked on the moon and is still alive is in his 80's.  And then there is deadastronaut.

i'm 174,890 years old...going by my current orbit relative to earth time.

how come no one has gone back or another country hasn't attempted to go to the moon ? I think it was a elaborate hoax. a theft of wealth by CIA/OSS and the Nazi's ..they stole what, 100's of trillions of dollars through the space program and alike.

there is noway anyone stepped foot on the moon.

[stallik]

Pleased to have resisted that one

[hymenoptera]

I know, it's tempting.

I'm going to re-box a Metal Zone into a boutique-looking enclosure and call it the "Moon Hoax".

And Columbus never discovered the Americas. His ships fell off of the edge of the earth.

This made me laugh embarrassingly loud in the middle of class.

Several countries and agencies have sent unmanned missions. Russia, China, Japan, and the ESA all have at one time or another. Manned missions are incredibly complicated, expensive, and rather pointless. Robots can do it so much cheaper.

You must realize the importance of the "space race" both politically and militarily. The country with the greatest rocket technology also by default ends up with the best nuclear weapons delivery platforms. The space race was really an arms race, but in a democracy the public also has to be behind it.

The race is over. The Cold War is history. We managed not to irradiate ourselves in a nuclear holocaust so we all won. Not much point to return to the moon until it becomes more economical and practical. The next big step will be, of course, a permanent human colony on the surface of the moon, and right now that's a long ways off since there's no hydrogen there for making water, etc, we will need to bring lots of it along and that's a logistical nightmare in itself.

The Obama administration killed the Constellation project that was looking into further manned missions to the Moon, so it's anybodies guess when it the next US missions will happen. Hopefully whatever comes of it it will be a joint venture between numerous agencies like the ISS.

Some very cool stuff is going down though! Comets, Pluto, and beyond! Mars. The moons of Jupiter and Saturn (possible LIFE!!!). All unmanned of course, but only because the distances and costs make manned missions impossible at this stage.The various agencies have been busy, but the Moon just hasn't been something getting much attention lately. Poor Moon!

Can't remember if I ever posted these. The left one is a Tonepad Ibanez FL301 Phil-Anger. The artwork was either gonna be Dr. Phil or Phil Collins since they are the only two Famous Phils that had charicatures of them online and would work with the theme. Phil Collins plays drums instead of guitar but has an angry charicature available. Dr Phil plays no instruments that I know of but might try to help someone deal with their anger. His was the funnier of the two so he won. The other is a Rebote that was just nearby, lol.
