Re: Aqua Puss

Aw shit, I traced the MKII back in summer but have been too lazy to digitize the schemo. I'll make a point to do it this week. Do you have a MN3005? Without it, I wouldn't bother converting. Phibes modded mine and it is absolutely incredible. Love it everyday. Still pretty impressed with Phibes. Th...

Re: Retro Channel - The Fuzz [traced]

Now that makes more sense. but it sure ain't no "proprietary chip set". doesn't there have to be more than one chip for a "chip set", anyway? it is a nice looking build, but they sure did a number on that IC! I found that I had a large quantity of LM3084 transistor arrays, and u...

Re: Caroline Wave Cannon [traced]

I must admit this is one of the only newer pedals in years that I have any interest in. I do not desire the feedback loop, but the overall tone is quite nice I dig it. I could formulate my own chili I guess but these guys seem cool and the pedal does look pretty hip I would not mind giving one a spin.

Re: Durham Electronics - Sex Drive [ goop-alarm ] [traced]

Man I would so buy one just to have it degooped. Phibes seemed to rock the degooping. Just give me the word and I am buying a donor happily.

Unless of course degooping is already underway.

Re: Freekish Blues- Alpha Drive

Not to mention this guy made the TGP mods and operators look like fools. He used the TGP as his marketing, to swindle people and he relied on the fact that TGP mods will not let the truth exist. He used their system against them. He made the TGP team look like idiots. Thank god sites like this exist...

Re: Freekish Blues- Alpha Drive

I have to say I do not like the practice.. But it is a borderline mensa move to buy $30 pedals and mildly tweak and repaint the boxes. But this guy is a moron. He got cocky buy doing it to multiple pedals. He got cocky with his website and talking about not compromising and making everyone in his ba...

Re: Freekish Blues- Alpha Drive

wait so let me get this straight.. the alpha drive is a chinese made joyo pedal that may or may not have some slight mods and is just slapped with a new label, gooped, and sold as an alpha drive? And on top of that the joyo pedal is actually just a $30 OCD clone? Wow, if this is true this is as bad...

Re: Durham - Crazy Horse [goop-alarm] [traced]

Greg, you should post pics of your gooped one into the sex drive thread. I think there's only pics of the traces in the thread. It'd be good to see how bad the top is gooped. I will.. here's a pic for this thread as well. You'll see a small section on the corner where I removed a bit of the goop wi...

Re: Durham - Crazy Horse [goop-alarm] [traced]

Alright, enjoy! I was able to get all the values from the de-goop so she's good to go. Big thanks to Barcode again for getting the start on this and giving me a HUGE footprint to work off of. And, no, I didn't draw D5 and D6 wrong. That's how they are in circuit. Obviously, you can omit D5 if you p...

Re: Durham - Crazy Horse [goop-alarm] [traced]

sure I would buy one, so just keep me posted. Sounds like phibes has a technique which is great. Greg_G the sexdrive is killer with voxes and tweed deluxes. The edge has used one off and on. I had one but it crapped the bed and I could not fix it because of the goop so I sent it back. This was a fe...

I feel like buying a sexdrive to send to one of you guys to gut. Should be an interesting box to take apart.

Re: Durham - Crazy Horse [goop-alarm] [traced]

I really hope you have some success with that. I had a sexdrive that shit the bed and was basically a door stop. The thing needed to be thrown away. I was pissed. That epoxy is hard and thick. I want to buy another sexdrive now just to send to someone to deconstruct it because it needs done.
