Title: Voxy Brown Build - Righton Brock
Post by: neiloler on April 10, 2013, 05:33:53 PM
She's a killer. :)

For anyone else who's built this up, where did you find unity gain to be? Maybe I was just playing through my amp really low on the volume last night, but I felt like I had to have the volume up around 2 o'clock before I started getting unity, even with higher gain settings. Thoughts?

(I'll have to take some gut shots, I miscalculated the drilling/decal/blah blah blah, so I had to do some mid-flight adjustment):

I REALLY like the way you contrasted the black text with the background color.  Looks fantastic.

Needs a gutshot, though.   ;D

Great looking build! The Black/red/gold theme is perfect.

Thanks everyone! :)

The finish is a Super Glaze, a pourable epoxy kind of finish. It's like Envirotex, I just found it at the local hardware store for $25 for enough to finish at least 100 pedals, if not more like 300. Two giant bottles.

I've been crunching through 6 builds of the Zero Point SDX tonight, so I didn't get a chance to take a gut shot, I will soon as I'm able!

Looks great, I really need to use the superglaze I bought about a year ago on something, lol.
How bad does it stink?

We can rebuild him. Faster. Stronger.

Cool vid! What was even cooler was that on the right side of the screen, it pointed me towards a vid called "Wonder Woman running", well worth looking up  ;)

Haha, I didn't even watch the vid, it's just what a buddy and I joked about all the time in school when cyborg topics came up (and in electrical engineering, well, you can guess at that occurrence rate being pretty high).
