Sure, glad you like it.

The design was made in PS CS2, took a couple of minutes, and several hours of dreaming designs....
Its printed on sticky back plastic, the only junk the local copy shop had in store.

Did I mention its my first pedal?

Peace
Rob

another octavia. i added the octave on/off switch and the tone/recovery stage from a foxx tone machine. it doesn't work as well as on the foxx, but it still gets the job done...

Man that paintjob creeps me out! It looks like some maniac painter decided to make a great peaceful painting, but then all of a sudden started to kill someone instead. What were going through your head while painting it?

Love the guts though, nice and clean!
And that glue gunned perf....

Phase 45 with mods (rate LED, vibe setting, both come highly recommended) finally etched and now officially good looking! One of my better looking etches, this. Nice and deep. I've found a photograph of a banana on Google images, grey-scaled it, used the "posterize" filter in Photoshop CS2 and adjusted the contrast and brightness until it was sufficiently black and white. Then I've used the magic wand to select everything that's white with anti-aliasing off, pasted that on a black background and then it was REALLY black and white. PnP, iron, etch, scrub, paint, scrub. Covered the existing holes with duct tape, this works really well. It was the dull grey cheap kind that sticks like a bad analogy.

THE RESULT!

looks great simple but effective, wish id thought of it! GIMP has a brilliant threshold filter sounds a hell of a lot easier that in PaintShop and GIMP is free!

I had to follow up on this. I posted the pic in another forum and see what I got as reply:

My current rig. Replicas are good for the price, but you can't beat the warm tone of a real banana.

..now stomp it

Here is my Meatball (Finally!) This uses the on board switches layout that I created a few months back. The controls are in the wrong positions

and the etching failed to penetrate far enough so I had to use it as a painting guide. However I am quite pleased how it came out!

~arph · July 06, 2007, 08:22:05 AM

Wow, very nice! congrats!

snoof · July 06, 2007, 12:58:36 PM

Man, I soooo want to make one of those! Just can't seem to around to it though

Love the banana. First thing I thought of was VU and Andy Warhol....

I think it looks great. If mine turns out like that, I'd be more than happy. Is that a Sovtek 1790N type enclosure?
