The Sushi Box FX Secret Society

[fivestringgecko]

I like a funky reverb for The Faraway Pirate. Maybe something Afterneath-ish?

I went a third place for The Saucy Bean - I immediately went with the tube envelope filter idea.

Faraway PIrate....Big Muff PI.

Not to change the subject, love all these ideas, but GONDWANA!

“and Gondwana Phase III (tube-driven IR loader). Stay tuned for more information on those!”

ok, carry-on.

I was hoping to put SBVT and Gondwana Phase III together tonight, but apparently FedEx had different plans more powdercoating I guess.

Boooooo! But at least you can still work on my Westinghouse

Boooooo! But at least you can still work on my Westinghouse

That's the thing though, I actually can't I'm completely out of the MOSFET I use in my high voltage power supplies, so I can't put any circuit boards together until that order comes in, that's why I've been focusing on enclosures. I usually finish circuit boards before anything so I have a chance to troubleshoot anything that doesn't fire up right away, so I'm a little frustrated that I still don't have my components a full 10 days after they were ordered.

that stinks man. Obviously I was just joking but that is frustrating I’m sure. I work in logistics. It’s rough out there.

Yup, and I don't really blame the supplier, I understand, it's just frustrating. Westinghouse and Space heater make me a little less nervous though, they're pretty simple to assemble and there isn't much to go wrong, and frankly Westinghouse alone counts for 1/3 of the March orders, so I expect it all to go fairly quickly when the parts do show up. Plus as I mentioned earlier, no mini-tube builds (except SD this month) means less individual designs to assemble, so I'm still planning to have everything done by the end of the month.

Saucy Bean to me is that extra phat gooey goodness. Think Jamerson and thick Labellas through an old wolfbox.

Edit: Up tempo of course.

The Saucy Bean is a pub the Thamesmen played at in the early 1960's before changing their name to Spinal Tap.

yes, the groove goo.

“ I know one of the big draws to the mini tube builds was the lower price than X Series, so I am also dropping the price of X series pedals that were previously available as mini tube builds”

I meant to say this earlier... but I also saw this little blurb on the site. Very cool of you Mr. Sushi, very cool.

So I'm not looking to branch into other areas of business or anything, but my new pickguard is looking sexy.

 

[JKos]

Do you know what it says?

 

[Sushi Box FX]

Do you know what it says?

Yes, but not because I can read it that's Mongolian script, I only read Mongolian cyrillic. It's a poem called Аймхай Туулай, or the timid rabbit.

That pick guard turned out great!

Did you use a table router to cut it?

Did you use a table router to cut it?

Nope, this is aluminum so I did it on the CNC. Then obviously powdercoated (matte black) and laser engraved.

So, completely theoretical, purely academic, but if someone were thinking about, say, I don't know, an HPF, what range would be most useful for bass? 25Hz - 160Hz sound about right?

Probably a pretty decent range for most, nudging up to about 200Hz might be good if it isn't too much of a lift.
