Well, I couldn't wait too long after getting a couple of Brian's pre-populated boards in today. I got home at 4, by 7 they were boxed up and ready to play.
First up is the Sabertooth. I already have one in my 2-in-1, but my dad has been dying for a Woolly Mammoth or Mastotron for a while now. His birthday is next month, so he'll be happy. Decided to include a battery since it's not for me.

Next up is the Poindexter. Took me a minute to figure out the 9v connections on the DC jack weren't connected for some reason, common with just about every single one I've used for some reason. Then I realized I ran out of knobs. It looks a bit silly, but it gets the job done and makes it more interesting to look at.
Wasn't sure what to expect from it tone-wise, but I like it. It definitely is better than the Visual Sound Angry Fuzz I played once, much more usable with the guitar volume control.

After realizing how lame these looked compared to everyone else's, I decided to go ahead and handpaint mine.

Oooh, I like the way that white one turned out especially.

Yeah the white one looks sweet. A zebra tiger-like look. Very cool.
