Not too musical but a cool little noise maker.

They are neat. I saw a band last week and they had an original thingamagoop.

it was entertaining albeit slightly uncontrollable.

Pretty nifty. I guess they discontinued version 1 and the Thing-a-ma-kit since they aren't on their site anymore. This reminds me, i still have a Thing-a-ma-kit waiting for me to assemble it. :facepalm:

Nice! You should get around to assembling it sometime! It's okay. I bought a bunch of pedal parts and haven't made anything yet! :facepalm:

Entertaining is the key word! I've been waiting for someone to throw in an 'annoying'! :erm:

What kind of band was it? Do you remember their name?

Yep. I wanted to try a small pedal build and thought this would be a fun winter project. Unfortunately I have other winter projects that have popped up, plus when I take a look at that big bag o' board, circuits, wire, switches, etc. it looks a bit overwhelming. :erm: It will be built eventually tho, just need to find the time. I do have a Thingamagoop V1 that keeps me entertained in the mean time. :animal:

That's how I feel. Overwhelmed! I'll build something simple eventually. Right now I'm just enjoying learning about all the different boutique pedal makers out there. :thumb:

I'd love to get something like that and find a way to throw it in the loop of Devi's Heaven's Gate (when they're actually available) with a fuzz or modulated delay or something... set the gate relatively hard so you can strum normally, and then just WHANG on the strings for a total atonal freakout!

That sounds like a sweet idea!

Nice! I like drummers that jam out with a traditional grip! Always reminds me of Mitch Mitchell!
