Yep, thats the enclosure for our little run.......this little bad boy is my own one, as iv biased it with lots of kinky synth gate action on the attack that my be a bit to spicy for most.
Now Iv just got to find the time to fill the other 6 iv got sitting on my work bench waiting for some guts, these MK1s really are time consuming little buggers, with all the point to point and poking and prodding transistor combinations, and come up with a less camp name!

What is that enclosure?


It looks like a car mirror. That's pretty cool.


Yep, large auto mirror. Was trying to come up with graphics, looking at different knobs on a few enclosures, noodling in photoshop for probably a few hours and said fuck it. Got the mirror at an estate sale cause I knew it would make a great box. Was going to put a Bruno Fuzz Machine in it but it's a Christine. Hopefully, I fucked up somewhere cause the sound ain't great. Probably me and my drinking while solderin' problem. Always better results when I don't drink but a little less fun....



One of the best uses of a non traditional enclosure I have ever seen. Love it! :thumb:

A haul may be a little boastful, butI did manage to track down a few of the allusive 2g381s, but bloody hell was it hard work, and the most Iv ever forked out for transistors......hope people are going to want vintage stock MK1s in a month or so, or Im in trouble! :facepalm:

Nice color too!...it's a little hard to tell in the picture, but is it sort of a chalky/satin finish? :?:
