My wife took over the photo dept. and started putting the demos together as well as making the knobs for our pedals. This is all a big improvement. I'm still working on getting a decent recording set-up together. I hope you enjoy the giant fireball at the beginning of the demos as much as I do. Which is a lot :D The website referenced at the end of the videos isn't up yet.
This is Culture Jam's Box of Hall with a volume knob and a fancy mica washer at the stomp switch. I've forgotten where the giant knob came from but the small tri-point knobs came from H8mtv. I can't find the gut shot on this one.

This is Mad Bean's Pork Barrel with Tone Pad mods. MN3007. Switches between the Boss CE-2 guitar chorus and the CE-2B Bass Chorus. Blend control as well as vibe, depth and rate LED mods. Made this for a Bassist friend. My wife made the knobs.

This is a circuit I've been hacking on for a little bit now. It's the Colorsound Overdriver re-biased with an added gain stage, feed back loop and gain control as well as larger in/out caps. It has one great sound and that's with everything maxed out :) Sounds like a CSOD with more clarity and punch. I have some ideas to improve on it. My wife made the knobs and a friend made the CAD design for the box and made me a couple freebies. Since the pedal has a slightly 50's ish look I tried playing some 50's ish riffs in the demo but I think it just came out sounding like George Thorogood ;D I really couldn't get a decent recording of it. I need to go with a dynamic mic next time.

I think I really liked that Firedrive. The finish on that one looks really good, and those knobs!

Thanks Jacob!
Is that celluloid veneer on the top of the Fire Drive? That looks awesome!
The beating heart of the little bird is a great detail on the Pork Barrel.
Really pro looking demos, too. The fireball is a nice touch 8)
That is celluloid/pearloid veneer. The demo's are a work in progress but much better than what I was doing. Thanks!
That Firedrive is BRUTAL.. I love it. I love the break up it has. Have you tried it in a band setting? Wondering how well it sits in the mix.

That was my goal with the Fire Drive. I loved the CSOD but hated how it just totally disappeared in a mix. This cuts much better though it still needs some work. Thanks!
Really cool stuff
Far out man, some really tidy work here... cool to have demos too
Fire drive sounds nasty! 8)
Thanks guys!
