How do you all feel about custom Bob Ross-style painted enclosures?

Also, thanks Mike and Geoff for the mention. The pedal is a bass modded distortion closer to a Rat/DOD/MXR etc. It was a last minute idea that actually turned out pretty good.

It's the first effect/mod that I'm proud of. Which means I plan to build a few more.

I will like to add it pushed air out of my lungs when I was standing next to those 408s.

Speaking of which someone sell me a 408

How will anyone know what is does? Better go with something more traditional, like..."The Sonic Pertubulator" or "Greezy Dogg".

Given your username I think something like Dad Incinerator would be appropriate.

I could name it like Fiona Apple album:

"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived."

Best I could do. It's the one on the right. Not the same circuit but I reuse that proto rig all the time. That picture is an early version of the "OldCrow" Fuzz.

I'd take one too... I think a 408 + an 8x10 could cover any sonic ground necessary....
