Title: The Happy Little Tree
Post by: das234 on December 26, 2013, 02:05:34 AM
Finished my Happy Little Tree as a Christmas gift for my brother.  It's a MoRC compressor modded for bass (and socketed for trial and error).  They're not in the pic but I went with black knobs.  Here it is.

hahaha. Awesome.

I used to actually watch that when it was on when I got home from school sometimes. That dude's voice was just soporific.

Nice build, too. :)

Thanks.  I went with the Bob Ross theme for my guitar compressor so I had to go with a Bob Ross theme again and this seemed pretty good.

Sweet build. Isn't he the guy that would gush over the mighty fan brush?

That's a great graphic!

I used to watch that guy and Commander Mark, but still never learned to draw or paint worth a darn  :-[  It was cool just watching their creations take shape.

Fantastic graphic. How do you like the compressor?

Yeah, there are clips on YouTube for those who are nostalgic for the Joy of Painting with Bob Ross. 

The graphic is a picture I snatched of the Interet called "Bob Ross can't paint people". 

I like the compressor, Jimi.  I liked the guitar one I built with the knee switch so I figured I'd do one for my bro's bass.  Haven't gotten a review from him on it yet but I thought it did the trick.
