BYOC VB-2
This was a repair/rehouse, so sorry no gut shot...





The Harmonic Sink (Harmonic Energizer)



One of Zappa's favourite tool (hence the etch.) Added an expression jack for the Q control.



Sounds like "carob redux" one of John Lyon's best fuzzes, absolutely phenomenal design, I love it.



While it's a sound-alike, the guts are far from look-alike.  :mrgreen:



Syncrotron (the awesome Mega Chorus.Vibrato)



A baffling number of parameters, so I gave them appropriate- and real, thematically related names.  :lol:





Finally, the "el Segundo Primo" (BYOC el distort Segundo)- working up my "useful" Spanish for my imminent trip to the US!



Made a few mods, but really dig it!.



Love these resin knobs!



Hadn't boxed it, but posted this demo a little while ago.

Excellent looking builds! 8)

It's builds like this that made my try etching in the first place. Super clean, you make it look super easy. It isn't :P

Here's another one, a Fender Blender

Has the old 2N3391 transistors and an octave defeat on a stomp instead of the tone switch.

Mr. Codtone. Enough already! You're making me feel like a lazy slacker. Awesome builds and etches! Very inspiring.

I got grand-nephew- for one translation, anyway. :)  I was also handed  'el segundo premio'  (as in 'the second prize') also...

noobamp

yep............ second cousin.....sweet etch btw
nothing like the smell of hot Bovie in the morning....

guitarmageddon

"the second cousin" is the correct literal translation, however "primo" is also slang.
There's a big clue in the control names... ;) 

noobamp

yeah the yayo gave it away.....lol
