Prices shipped ConUS, trade offers welcome.
WMD Fatman (Envelope Filter) w/box and sheets- $189

Grygrx - Death Box - Random 1 knob Fuzz I made out of an old broken box I had laying around, it came out a bit cleaner sounding than expected, nearly a fuzz/boost. No battery, boss type power only. The box is in horrible condition, extra holes, cracks, broken off screws (I had been using it to test stuff), the whole deal is sealed closed, and it's called the deathbox because it may die anytime, and there will be nothing to do about it!

Quality parts, true bypass etc...
- $30

Death Box Samples:
Passive P
Active Jazz
Guitar Rhythm Hum-bucker

Barge Concepts MB-1 (Meatball Clone) -SOLD

Out of curiosity, why are you getting rid of the Grinder?

1) Purging
2) It's too damn big.
3) Too many knobs for me.

Sounds great though. If anything I think it's better than the original meatball.

Sweet! Can't wait for mine to arrive!

Hope someone picks this one up off of you soon!

edit: Oh. Just realized that someone did!

There isn't a damn thing I don't like about the fatman's adjustability and sound. It's a great filter. The only minor gripe I have is that volume adjustment is on the inside, so if you are switching between extreme settings there is no on-the-fly quick way to balance it out. Of all the pedals on the list it's the one I keep waffling about keeping. I don't really have a need for it, and I'm looking to generate cash. If it doesn't sell I won't be heart-broken at all.

Cool graphics on your "Death Box". Could you post a close up?

Graphic is by an artist from another forum, we were chatting about different transfer techniques for 'color-fastness' and I did a demo on this box. It had been sitting here for awhile as a test mule. The graphic looked cool, and the box was bad shape so I decided to build a fuzz into it. Oh and for the record, I don't really think it's going to die anytime now...

Sure... I'll show off all the box brutality as well...
