(after the sonicfuzz) muffhoney effect pedal project
 
hi all especially the guitar pedal freaks :)
there was a time i posted an excited thread about a superfuzz pedal i got. a custom made stompbox- 60's univox scheme in a sweet metal box, named 'sonic fuzz'.

 

i was searching around to get myself a big muff pedal but these are not sold around, and noone was selling used. so i decided to ask Nikifena- who's made the fuzz to build a special one for me.
here's link of how his pedals erm.. look like
http://s2.photobucket.com/albums/y23/Naudio/
so i'm getting a big muff pi copy in even sweeter metal box, shaped like this one.

 

name of the pedal and the 'volume' and 'tone' thingys will be 'engraved' in the aluminium.
i decided to give it the name 'muffhoney', since the superfuzz is sonic fuzz. i think it's neat.
so_ i need a design made for the look of this pedal. i just thought if someone could help with creative design for this custom-muff-pedal project
i imagined a MUFFHONEY in the typical eh big muff lettering,volume-tone-sustain and the Naudio bull logo somewhere:)
but i suck at corel draw or any other imaging program so i need help.
feel free to come out with sth.

peace

Sounds like a good pedal. I sure wish I had Paint Shop Pro on this computer- I could come up with a design. I'll make a simple one in paint, right now.

have you ever been there?

yeah, if you want to register on freesofree.net, lots of dinosaur jr bootlegs, in between songs he uses the blue box to have little jams and such. download the bootleg called dinosaurs are still alive and listen to it.

king_buzzo 12.22.2006 02:27 PM

the key to the blue box is to use it with other pedals, also whack the amp on 10 and plug in a bass, it sounds wonderfull...

shentov 12.22.2006 03:59 PM

hey Kegmama, getting more and more gear is okay, at least you're not spending dollars/leva on booze and bad bad drugs ( like i do sometimes ). and the feeling is better! on the other hand you could never reach CHOUT! he nearly got as much pedals as someone from SY!

haha

king_buzzo 12.22.2006 04:02 PM

he has more than thurston and kim together i think?

May I ask where the on/bypass switch is? I'm assuming it's supposed to be in the middle of "touch me i'm sick"?

shentov 12.23.2006 09:17 PM

yeah yeah but i took the picture before the hole was done.

shentov 12.24.2006 12:51 AM

Listening to your songs right now, Shentov. Sounds great, left you a message too actually.
The pedal turned out awesome - looks and sound. Seems to cut though in the mix well. Your tone is similar to what I go for with the big muff.
