Title: Show off your weirdest pedal enclosures!
Post by: azrael on October 10, 2008, 09:06:40 PM
I've had this strange urge ever since I've start attempting to build pedals to build one inside an N64 controller. Don't know why.
Then I saw that the band Brand New had an awesome fuzz built inside a model car....
So I've been on the lookout for strange and often impractical pedal enclosures for a while. Haven't found anything yet, or had the heart to destroy one of my N64 controllers, though.

Has anyone else built, seen, or taken a picture of a really strange or unorthodox pedal enclosure? I'd like to see it!

I've always wanted to put one in one of these, darn slice hazard always stops me  :icon_eek:

Haha, that would make an excellent pedal enclosure.

I'm sure many users here have seen the toaster amps at hottieamps.com:

Atari Punk Console + Ruby amp + 8Ω speaker in a Pokemon alarm clock:

Has APC out, AMP in, and external speaker jacks on the back:

I kept the 2xAA battery compartment and converted it to hold a 9V. It will run for a short time off the 9V for traumatizing co-workers and fellow public transport passengers.

Much less weird, an FKR (modded RAT distortion) in a Daphon delay enclosure:

A project I've got on the backburner is filling this old games console with noise circuits, a patchbay and a 4 channel mixer for parallel effects:
(http://notinteractive.com/stuff/guitar/fx/noisebox/front.jpg)
The guts of the daphon analog delay whose case I used for the FKR will be used in this, controlled by the right joystick. I've also got a few playstation 1 and 2 controllers that I've pulled apart -- the analog joysticks have a 5k pot on one axis and a 10k pot on the other, grab a few cheap ;)

Not a pedal, but in a similar vein to the toaster amp posted above -- I've nearly finished (just waiting on some capacitors), a brownface Fender Princeton 6G2 in a ~1940's bakelite valve radio:

Do those storm troopers have mouse ears?

Correction: the one on the left is definitely a clone, my bad.

Isn't that Chuck Norris brand toilet paper?  I think Walmart carries it.

Ha. I haven't heard a Chuck Norris Joke in a while. Funny.

Go to google.ca or com or whatever. Type "Find Chuck Norris" in google, then press the 'I'm feel lucky' button.
