Title: Micro Amp
Post by: Guitarmageddon on March 19, 2015, 06:13:12 AM
MXR Micro Amp clone
Hadn't heard one before , but it's nice, very LOUD! (26db) with a very flat frequency response.

Awesome etch! Did you draw it yourself ?
It reminds me of the old psychedelic posters from the 60s, it really is grateful dead-ish to me !

Earthless has to be one of the best bands of the 2000s. Cool looking pedal!!

That looks like something I need to build, headphone amps don't go loud enough for me to hear them. Lost just about all my hearing about 10 years ago in an original band I was in. Take care of your hearing boys, turns out they were right, you will go deaf.

That etch is really, really cool. It came out really clean and detailed.

+10 For the purple knob/purple led combo :)

Thanks  fellas!
Coda- love that GD poster, might have to use it! There was some great poster art back in the pre-computer, pure screen print days.
I'm not hipster enough to know about the Earth-whats-its, it was my customer's facebook icon and I thought it would etch nicely, that's why I did it, but clearly it's an homage to that era. ;)
