Found Fuzz Enclosures

Post by Dandolin »

I've got a soft-spot for fuzz enclosed in found objects. Is there a thread for this already? If not, why not? Let's show off our fave upcycling fuzzventures.

Less interested here in the many clever and gorgeous build-ups on traditional Hammond base architecture (those could have a thread on their own--we're not near thread-ceiling yet, are we?)

Here'sa coupla few for starters. Outdo me (not too hard I'm sure):

Yeah, they all seem to be by the same guy, so sue me, I'm lazy

Ha! Love it--but I beg to differ with Mr. Turtle--that phaser looks like pure awesomtainium to me.

C'mon mang? Boring thread is too boring? I'm too fuggin' broke to look at anymore booteek genius creations, and I'm bored too. Don't make me go all the way over to diystomps to find this stuff. Fine. Be that way.

I remember these! There was a time when a bunch of people were stuffing EHX Holy Grails into those. Very cool.

I love this kind of stuff!

I'd put a Green Ringer or a Rangemaster or a Bazz Fuss in there but maybe that's too obvious.

oh man I wish that Artoo switch had a sample chip and you could step on a momentary switch to put some beep boops into your guitar.

I'm trying to get him to build me a custom matrix mixer with his passive ring mod on one of the lines, a 4 step cv sequencer, and maybe a minimal drone in it, all patchable.

You need to borrow a horse head to make a more...persuasive...offer? On second thought, I'm keeping the horse intact. I've got an absolute pita cow, though, her head you can have and keep.

Soaring tortise is really the master of this though.
