@HUSC once again your selection of people talking makes for one very entertaining performance. if you played a live show I would totally go.

@Jero looks great. no mojo axial panasonic caps eh? I guess you dont see turret + box caps too often. its like a vintage modern hybrid of a new design.

GIANT MXR KNOBS FTW. Looks great Jero! (drasp is working on a thing for me with three of those huge suckers on a 1290 enclosure. Looks ridiculous. Ridiculously awesome.)

Thanks fellows! I like this box a good bit. Funny thing is, the momentary doesn't work they way I intended, yet I'm totally happy with it. I wanted the toggle to turn the choas on, or the momentary on (normally off, chaos when depressed). But it does the opposite (wrong switch? :facepalm: )...Toggle is off, or momentary on (normally on, no chaos when depressed). Fast staccato stomps, chop the chaos a bit and you can make cool rhythms, while longer stomps sort of swell into the normal sound :!!!:

Used what I had on hand. My NOS&axial component stash is much smaller than the modern parts stash :lol: . If I'm doing a NOS build I will do it proper with axials, but with these I'm keeping it all basic/on hand. Later I will order the right stuff and make a vintage spec one. I really like building on turret so you'll see a lot of this weird vintage modern hybrid :thumb:

Honestly all 3 of them look great. The brown hue from the fire hat ones goes well with the gold. Love these old knobs I've been getting in batches (ebay). Can't wait to see that Drasp beast box.

I do! Guess I could sell them for people interested, but have no idea what to charge. Maybe just take offers/donations? :lol:

Yo Jero, if you make me boards for an SM and a Meathead I'd totally buy them! I've been really wanting to build on turret but I'm hesitant because it's kinda expensive to get started up and I'm kinda poor/in college haha

Have you ever seen those ads 'organ free to good home' ? I'm that good home - rip it apart for vintage trannies and any other mojo you can scavenge, the giant LED is actually a bezel for a neon lamp from a 70's Farfisa organ.

:mad:
you killed a working farfisa? do you know how rare they are? nothing else sounds like a farfisa. when they are all gone that sound will be lost forever. but if it needed a complete restoration anyway then I dont blame you. I would have gutted it too. :snax:

This was a Farfisa that your granny would have been proud of - tacky fkg thing - I'm well into vintage keyboards, but this was a piece of shit that was just asking to be ripped for parts. The mushroom trannies make for great BM's too.
