Title: The Ten Year Bazooka! (Deadringer)
Post by: nzCdog on November 08, 2012, 04:13:06 AM
This has been ready a while but I needed to deliver it to my friend before the world saw it! ;D

This little guy 'Lambo' is a Japanese cartoon character,  his weapon of choice is the 'Ten year Bazooka'... 8)

Not much to say really, other than its a versatile overdrive that sounds pretty good with anything I've thrown at it... it's built stock as in the project sheet.  This baby gets a test rockin tonight at his band practice so hopefully he likes it :)

Looks great man! :)

What is that yellow wire, i like how she shapes, seems to be great stuff?

Thanks man...  :)
That wire is just solid core 22awg, from Tayda when they used to stock it. It's good to work with but I think I prefer bonded like the stuff you get from smallbear

Nice, the wiring really looks like taffy or gum- I wanna eat it. WTF.

That looks dead pro, like Juansolo's stuff. I half expect to see a glass Rockshop counter over it ;)

Ah, now I know why I don't like the way my solid core wire looks! It's 24 awg!

I'm liking the ribbon cable for the pots. May have to try that!

Now, I'm going to go muse over what makes a bazooka cross over into ten-year bazooka territory!  ;D

Thanks guys, yeah its a pretty spaghetti wiring job with all the pots and switches.
I'm sure the wire insulation doesn't taste as good as it looks tho  ;D
