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! :wow what a fantastic idea you have there:

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