Title: Caballo Loco (Crazy Horse)
Post by: twin1965 on April 13, 2014, 10:17:23 AM
This is my first ever horizontal pedal build! It's a PCB by Poodle's Pedal Parts of the Durham Electronics Crazy Horse.

I'm surprised that everything fitted in there especially as I hand drilled all the holes! Poodle does some nice PCB's. He's the UK's version of Madbean  :)

This pedal is quite versatile although I haven't fully experimented with it. I'm a big Neil Young fan and you can get that sound with this. Even with a Telecaster!

I will probably change the knobs as they are too tall and being so close to the footswitch it's tricky to get your foot bang on the switch. I'm using a CamdenBoss enclosure (similar to what's used in EHX pedals) and this has become my favourite type.

Thanks guys. I get the knobs from Dr Tweek here in the UK. Cheap but look cool.
