Title: Pair of dirty Lowriders...
Post by: LaceSensor on October 22, 2011, 03:01:55 PM
Built these, one for me, one for my bass player
Graphic will be familiar for fans of Rage Comics.

I did the recommended C10 = 1nf, C12 omitted after trying a few variations.
Also definitely use 2n5457s over the 2SK30s, tracking was day and night for me.

Thanks for a super board from Madbean. These designs with onboard pots are the way forward.

Sound really good too.
Definitely recommend this project.

Oh man, I love these. Any gfx with memes on them get an automatic A+!!

Nicely done.

Woosh, right over my head.  Sometimes it feels like I'm one of the only guys around who never read comics.

Great work though, nice clean builds!  Can't wait to build mine.

And +1 for board mounted pots.

The board mounted pots were done with cable off cuts!
The one with the battery is for the bass player, he CBA to sort out a power supply ( ::))

Wow those look terrific! You have inspired me to move the Lowrider and one of Taylor's Meatballs to the top of the build queue. Funk!

I agree, perfect way of showing the pedals abilities without changing other variables, I like it. I am going to have to build this one for sure. Nice Job.

Those two look sick!! Looks like the wiring is much easier with the new board set up style. Great demo too! That 2 octave down is wooofyy.

This was a dream build, and the wiring is cake. Props to the boss man.
