I have enough spec parts to build Marks 1-4 Tonebender, as I currently only have a Mk II Si I built myself (though it shreds). I have the DAM spec Mk IV planned, and the Ge Mk III. I recently built a FZ-1A and it's one of my favorites, but running it off two AA in parallel is kind of a pain. I'll have to get the 1.8V zeners from Mouser next time and do a right proper power inverter and LED indicator.

Anyone care to share their favorite Mk III or IV ? Tonebender are a finicky animal and I want to hear some good ones :)

Well I built the mark 4 .. it sounds sick, but I definitely have to audition some transistors. It has that thick nasty fuzz with everything dimed, and it just sustains for days. .. very cool. :love:

I've had two AC transformers (wall warts) that died on me in the past 2 weeks (I discovered it in the past 2 weeks, I don't know when it happened).

How is this possible? How can a wall wart be damaged or fail?

One was for a Whammy, the other was for an Alesis Air Synth (they're not generic transformers they have their own size barrel (plug), so these are ones I'll have to replace).

:no:

I would sell my soul for a Lyra 8 and a KNAS Moisturizer. :drool:

I have mine plugged into a power strip, which I turn off when not in use. If you leave a wall wart plugged in, it's still using energy, which is why most of them are hot when they are plugged in, even with nothing hooked up to the DC side.

I have also learned that just because the adapter is a name brand doesn't mean it's quality. Try the power strip to shit everything down. They will probably last longer. :)*

interesting idea, but not very practical unless you're Keith Rowe.

that's in better condition than i'd expect. i guess he wasn't using it for the prepared-guitar stuff.
