Ooo that was a mean trick! Lol
And in some ways it wouldn't be good as I can't afford it!

I think that Ryan has enough on his hands with the current pedals alone, though just seeing what a Dr. Scientist amp would be like would be worth it.

Amplifiers, hey? Buckle up, B-man!
These probably aren't what anybody was hoping for, but I've dabbled with amplifiers a bit. I made these amps over a few month period about 6 years ago, when I was first getting into electronics. I still have a huge pile of random speakers just waiting for projects. All these amps run off 9vdc and use 1 or 2 watt audio amps.. they also all basically sound like bollocks, but hey, I was having fun!
I've never messed around with tubes or high power, just these silly things, but I really got a kick out of making them.. just fun projects... soon after I was completely into pedals though and haven't made an amp since.

Ryan, that's like the stuff I (try to) make!
I'm currenltly working on building and rehousing a Getlofi Lofi Delay and Atari Punk console into an old Gameboy.
Pics if it turns out well!

That toy truck speaker intruiges me... Always useful to have some guitar gear crammed into somewhere noone would expect!

If I had that truck, I'd drive it around in circles to get a rotating speaker effect.

Cool, Blurry! Definitely show off some pics, I'd love to see your projects! Let's make this thread for fun projects, those rule. Stuffing noise makers into a GameBoy sounds totally cool, can't wait to see and hear what you come up with!

I dig the Wedge too.

Tho it would probably only last 5 min before I accidentally put my clumsy foot thru the speakers trying to turn it on. lol.
