Title: Yellow Shark and Slow Loris
Post by: brucer on May 10, 2014, 05:40:59 AM
Just so I'm not only posting in the tech support forum!

A couple of recent builds:

Madbean Yellow Shark

 

I'm SUPER happy with this pedal.  I built it a couple of months ago on a PCB by Haberdasher and I play it all the time.  I'm still blown away that I built a pedal and it worked.  The original is described as sounding and reacting like small vintage combo with nicely worn tubes and speakers.  I've gotta say, I've got a reproduction late-40's National Supreme amp that breaks up like bliss with a clean boost in front and this sounds even better!  Highly recommended!!

Madbean Slow Loris

 

Ever wondered what all the fuss was about Rats?  Build this.  It's awesome.  It's crazy.  It's flexible.  It's everything they say and more: overdrive through distortion goodness.  It's fun in a box!!  Seriously, I can't play this without grinning.  I don't think it's just me.

Hey Cody.  Thanks.  Funny thing for me to say, but the photos don't do either pedal justice.

The Honey Bee is in a "Bomber Orange" 1590B from Mammoth.  It's a really nice finish. Even better in the flesh.

Damn, I was hoping you would not say that. I use a lot of metal flake / metallic paint and I know what you mean, nothing beats seeing it in person.

Thanks for the info
