I also note the then owner of said pedal is remaining very quiet ;)
Not going to lie - my favourite part of owning that pedal was pretending to be a drug dealer when I dropped it into Grant’s work for him to try.
The two points of meth hidden inside really added to the gag.

My bronchiectasis-ridden children would appreciate our home heating being prioritised for nitro spraying.

Re: Nitro spraying advice

Anyone got hint for spraying nitro in the cold? Unusually cool in Northland this year, sitting around lows of 5 for the past six weeks. I can only spray in the evenings, and have been really struggling to get it coming out smoothly. Have tried warming the jar and thinning a little more than usual (u...

I would say, perfect. Uncannily like my ‘64 SG!

Fat but a little less shoulder than an R9.
Hmm might look at the '59 still. They don't look anywhere near as cool as yours, though!

I think it's the biggest neck I've played! 😊

Re: Whats on your amp workbench?

Here’s the 1974X clone I picked up a while ago and got rebuilt. You can probably see which parts are new and old. It’s ready to be picked up, haven’t heard it roaring yet! This Bill again? Can't wait to hear what you think. Yip, had to really twist his arm to get him to do it too! It’s built to the...

Re: Forums have been slow, how about a 'In the mail' thread?

Be interested to hear what you think of the Morning Glory. It has always sounded like a fantastic mid-gain OD on YouTube, but I haven't had the pleasure to hear one in person. F Stop also sounds cool, not sure it'll over much above the Flint though. I think the Morning Glory is just JHS's mods for ...

Re: What's on your work bench?

1000034170.jpg Also made this. An idea I've had for a while based on internet hokum from years ago where you'd get 2 humbuckers and take one coil from each and swap them over, so you'd have 1 coil from a JB and one from say a 59 in the same pickup. So here we have one coil with 43 awg to 8.2k (6666...

Re: What are you learning?
