Paul Marossy Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 Someone from the stompbox forum sent me this wood enclosure, which I have been told is made out of "canary wood". Anyhow, I put my great sounding Tube Screamer Clone in it. I think it turned out pretty nice.

Robert_the_damned Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 wow that looks really nice! love the shaping to it. was it a freebie because if so you got a really good deal on it! On a side note I've visitied your site a number of times and think its really great. I keep meaning to do some stopbox work and have most the bits I need bar the vero board ( I like working with it for some odd reason) and the components.....ok so I have boxes and jacks 'n' stuff like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Marossy Posted March 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 Thanks! Yeah, the box was a freebie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crafty Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 Neato! Now I know what to do with those bowl blanks I saw over at Woodcrafter's the other day... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert_the_damned Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 if its a bowl blank maybe you could put a fuzz face clone in it Crafty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crafty Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 if its a bowl blank maybe you could put a fuzz face clone in it Crafty *gasp* You know, I was just thinking the other day about building a fuzz pedal after noticing the Seymour Duncan TweakFuzz was made in China. Now I have an excuse to buy a lathe for cutting a bowl AND putting together a fuzz. Genius. Pass the germanium transistors! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psw Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Great stuff as always paul... Now, if I were to build a preamp with mid boost and put it in an enclosure with a mahogony bottom and a AAA maple top in a tasteful sunburst...would my cheapo strat sound like a Les Paul? Conversely, if I were to do the same thing in pine...would this effect the tone? pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert_the_damned Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 maybe if you made two of them and wired them in series with opposing magnetic poles it'd make the single coils sound more like humbuckers. the more important question I feel is how silly can a bunch of guitar builders be?

Paul Marossy Posted March 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 It sounds like you guys just need the "Talent Boost" pedal. Check it out: http://www.angelfire.com/yt3/redtele/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert_the_damned Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 that's rediculas who would ever have it set any lower than 6 or 7? gotta get me one of those 60-cycle hum boosters to counter my humbuckers and an SRV pedal would increase my ability to show off to no end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guitarfrenzy Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Very nice pedal, but how does it sound? Got any audio samples? And yes, it would sound better in a Pine box, this one probably sounds like a canary, or maybe it's just a clever name for the wood? You should have called it Canary Singer Pedal..

Paul Marossy Posted March 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Sorry, no sound clips, but I can tell you that it sounds very good. Not sure how it compares to the real thing, but the main thing is that I am very happy with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
