Title: Shoot the Moon
Post by: angrykoko on January 01, 2013, 06:53:48 PM
My Shoot the Moon (from culturejam's pif, thanks again!)
Amazing sounding trem, getting lots of play.

I need to re-do my lettering on the enclosure, I don't know what was going on that day I did it but I kept messing things up (no alcohol involved that day either). 

The black sparkle enclosure is from Mammoth, very cool looking color, and the white lettering looks great with it.

Cheers!
Koko

Thanks guys.

The lettering looks better in the picture on this one, I think the room was a bit cold and it affected the vinyl, it was not being friendly at all.  Then I kept sticking it on crooked, after the third try I was done for a while.

I really like not using the led bezels also, it looks great without them.

Oh, and I tried the pro footswitch from Mammoth,  a world of difference.  I will use these from this point forward.  They are much nicer feeling when you click them.


Happy New year!

Everything looks very clean inside and out to me. Like the name you chose as well!

None that were not of my own doing (putting a 100K where a 100R was supposed to go).

Easy build, used an LDR from tayda and a yellow (I think it's yellow) LED.

Oh.. had I payed attention before boxing it up, I might have tried a different taper on the speed pot, it seems a bit bunched up to me.

Other than that, great build.
