Sounds great Jimi!!!!!

BAD CHIP SOCKET??? I hope it wasn't the one in the bag of goodies! 

[pinkjimiphoton]

no sir, those are waiting for my next parts order! it was a RADIO SHACK socket.

i rebuilt the circuit twice...and it was the socket each time. ay yi yi yi yi....lol

thanks for the care package, greg, that one's gonna get built soon and probably put in a wah shell!

20 seconds in and i am really liking what i hear . i always wondered what these things sound like , *adds this to the list * ...

when are you going to do a demo vid for your home made stasis chamber ?

i mean thats the only way i can figure out how the heck you hustle so hard , damn man !

do you have a vero 4 stasis chamber ?

lol .

does bella do your boms ... strip wire with her teeth or what man . dont tell me you are doing all this work yourself . man do i feel like a slacker now .

seriously , thanks for making these , thats a great lil legacy you got going on here .

[pinkjimiphoton]

dude...it's easy.

i'm a cripple, i have no life, i have no resources, so i got nothing better to do with my time than make noisemakers to irritate my neighbors with.

Jimi: I just logged in to say how much I'm enjoying the "stupid pedal tricks" series. 

[pinkjimiphoton]

thanks so much jon,
it's a fine line between awkward and entertaining...

i hope my buffoonery helps keep it fresh.

[deadastronaut]

@jimi:  which schematic did you build that off.?.

i have the BB on bread at the mo and the fuzz is no where near like that on mine....hmmmm...

mines really gated, splatty etc...but it does have an almost phaser sound on th trail off...

cheers.

[Mark Hammer]

Yep, that's the sound.

Fun, ain't it? 

[deadastronaut]

  yeah...it is.

[composition4]

Good work, sounds great! Good video too

Jon

[reverberation66]

    great video jimi, for a minute you WERE Jimi, great playing, I had no idea that effect was so cool.  I didn't know it had that whole filter thing going on, now I wanna build one.

[pinkjimiphoton]

thanks guys, i forget which schematic i used,...let me look, i have it somewhere i think..

i used the toppopiccione schematic.

fwiw, when dino was down, it was DEAD. i gotta dig it out and see what's what.

[m4j0rbumm3r]

So cool, there's a talkboxy sound to it at times.

Loving the video series Jimi!

[pinkjimiphoton]

yah, one of these days i wanna try replacing one or both of the trimmers with a treadle...i have a feeling that it would make a decent formant pedal.

Behringer makes a clone of the Bass Balls that I've seen locally for $30, in a case with ample room to add mods.  Nice place to start.

[pinkjimiphoton]

i love, no, LOVE their dim c clone.
