The Great Pedal Demo thread
What good is a DIY forum if all we can do is SEE what people build? Let's HEAR it! I got a decent recording setup today, so I thought I'd kick this thread off... with sloppy playing and total n00b recording technique haha.

Re: The Great Pedal Demo thread
Am I the only one who records clips of stuff they build/mod?
I modded another Sovtek Big Muff Pi today. They're a lot of fun to mess around with.

Re: The Great Pedal Demo thread
I don't build, but I have a pedal built by our very own stanimal that I absolutely adore. I could do up a demo of that?

Re: The Great Pedal Demo thread
Your vibrato has given me a boner ever since it came out. Should I go to the emergency room?

Re: The Great Pedal Demo thread
Germanium Muff - in both clips I start with the sustain at noon, jam a little bit, then turn it up all the way
Dot bridge humbucker -->
--> Carvin X100B clean channel
http://www.box.net/shared/g1thupx8vk
Dot neck humbucker -->
--> Carvin X100B clean channel
http://www.box.net/shared/9083m1ublb
My hands were still warming up, so I wasn't play at my best... which is still pretty bad!

ARGGGH!!! CLOUUUUUUDSCAAAAPPPESSS (a la shatner in Wrath of Kahn)!!!!!!
yeah, that vibrato has had my panties in a twist for years, thanks for teasing us some more dude....
releasing a schematic would be quite generous, considering you aren't building them and there's such demand... i know i just want one and would have preferred yours to dropping the $$$ on a damn BYOC that still doesn't work.....
