Gristleizer PCB group buy? Who's interested?

Stompin Tom · October 07, 2009, 11:03:32 AM

I just add that I'm interested in one if the cost's reasonable.

Rectangular · October 07, 2009, 08:06:47 PM

maybe I'll just perfboard one, skip the pcb

Taking too long for you?

I'll probably have the layout done this week.

I'm not really sure how big this is going to end up, but what do you guys think about $12 per PCB? I'm trying to get to a price point where I can afford to do all the packing and mailing and taking orders (selling parts recently has taught me that this part takes up a lot of time). Does that seem reasonable? The one at Smashing Guitars is $47... I'll probably charge more for non-board members, but I would like to cut a decent deal for everybody here.

Ill take a couple.

jacobyjd · October 07, 2009, 09:15:18 PM

I think $12 is more than fair.

Rectangular · October 08, 2009, 03:19:13 AM

$12 is great

you're not taking too long. I think the AVR stuff just turned me off

Taylor · October 08, 2009, 04:29:51 AM

Well, the PCB will still be for the opamp LFO. It will just be compatible with a possible AVR LFO if such a thing surfaces down the road. So nothing has changed from the original idea of the PCB.

At $12, I'd definitely be in for two.

1 for me please

tiges_ tendres · October 08, 2009, 12:59:38 PM

Sounds awesome! I'd still be in for 2-3.

Thank you!

Ry · October 08, 2009, 02:30:06 PM

I'm still in, I'd take 2 at that price.

Ben N · October 08, 2009, 07:15:46 PM

I'm in for one.

Stompin Tom · October 09, 2009, 04:20:10 PM

Yeah, $12 is very reasonable. I'd get one!

GREEN FUZ · October 09, 2009, 04:32:10 PM

I could be persuaded, at that price. Might even stretch to two. I know, last of the big spenders

I just reconfigg'd my pedalboard...I pulled my tremolo in favor of the Gristleizer and placed it before my distortion/booster section. Wow. Talk about useful.

Anyone who is on the fence better just go for it. You'll be glad you did.

Derringer · October 10, 2009, 11:41:50 AM

I'm still in for at least one

might even do two @ $12 each ... my bass player would probably find it useful

Taylor · October 10, 2009, 04:07:41 PM

I'm thinkin' blue solder mask... What do you guys think about that? Blue boards are my favorite. Or maybe black.

The one bluesdevil etched for me is black...it's badass.

Ry · October 10, 2009, 04:34:32 PM

Black would be cool!

Derringer · October 10, 2009, 06:44:31 PM

What chips are you going to use for your design Taylor?

Specific Vactrol or home-rolled?

Anything else that's specific to the build?

I'll be making a parts order soon ... figure I should get these things.

Hell, if you've got a bill of materials already, it would be great to see it.

thanks
