Lovetone PORN!!!

Gonna make the write up short and sweet as this is my second attempt. The first one was long and pretentious and I just didn't want to post it.
These are my latest addiction. Lovetone FULL-SIZED clones in 1590D enclosures. All of them have full functionality and they all have Black PCB etched faceplates that were liquid tinned.
Some shout outs to my peeps that helped me through...
#1 Ian (LaceSensor) without whom none of this would happened. Inspiration and several emails later (I swear he knows exactly where the problems are) and I have some AWESOME Lovetone pedals!
#2 Jim (electricstorm) without whom the ??Flanger wouldn't have happened. Jim, along with Alanp and myself were involved with the ??Flanger re-birth. Most of the work was done by Jim. I hope things are better for you brother!
#3 Ben (rullywowr) who provided me with 2 of these PCBs etched as part of a trade. Spectacular work my friend!
#4 Juansolo who assisted me with the Doppelganger build document.

Cheers to you all..... And on to THE SHOW!!!

First up... The ??Flanger




Next.... The DoppelGanger




Finally.... The Meatball




And Finally.... The Group Shot


I am currently in work on the Wobulator and the RingStinger. As soon as I get them ALL out and completed... I will be more than happy to share with those brave souls who would attempt the builds!

Cheers  ;)

Thanks guys! Very humbling words coming from all of you.

I will try to get some demos up when I get time AND when I figure out how to use my damn iPad to post on YouTube  :-[

So hot. Love the nod to the original powder coat colours with the chicken heads and the faceplates are stunning.

Thanks. A lot coming from you  ;D

If you only knew how long I searched for the mini chicken head knobs to find a PINK one for the Ring Stinger!!!  ::)

Super clean builds you have there. I also love the knobs and faceplates, perfection.

You're gonna need a trophy case for those! Wow, what a collection. Great job.

Can't wait to see how you're going to mount the Ring Stinger's daughterboard with transformers in those relatively cramped enclosures :) (I wimped out and used a 1550G, not a D!)

Already looked into it! As long as I keep the board mounted low enough... it "should" fit  :o

Oh, man, I didn't even notice that. That's really clever!

Those are beautiful / inspiring. I'd love to build the flange one day.
