Title: The Blockhead (BSIAB2 - Non-Madbean Build)
Post by: irmcdermott on June 10, 2012, 02:49:01 AM
Nothing too special going on here. Just a GGG BSIAB2, only I went with all 2N5457s (like the cmatmods Brownie), sounded smoother on my setup then having the 2 J201s in there. Everything else is stock.

I know JHS has a Charlie Brown pedal, oh well :)

I really dig the aesthetic, man!  Did you paint the base coat of that enclosure?  Love that color.

Hit it right out if the park Ian. Super slick, and I might do a
Cartoon theme on a future build now...

Why am I imagining Charlie Brown about to "stomp" on this when at the last moment Lucy snatches it away from him???

Nice theme. Congrats.

Thanks! I powder coat. That color is Columbia Coatings Dormant Sparkle Copper. I'm giving this one to a buddy (who wanted a sparkle in his), and going to build another one for myself that is their Safety Yellow color (which matches Charlie's shirt pretty darn close).

Thanks Jacob! It was fun, I'm glad that I was able to find the Peanuts font to put on this one.

Haha. Thanks! I can totally see that happening in the comic strip/cartoons.
