It lives!

Here’s a ferocious sounding fuzz based on the Jext Telez White pedal. If you are looking for a versatile fuzz with endless tonal possibilities, this is for you!
Fresh off the bench and available for purchase. DM for deets.

Busy day in the shop building three of these Realistic / Radio Shack pzm microphone modification kits for a customer. This mod eliminates the anemic, noisy battery box and creates a 48V DC active preamp for each mic. The result is lower noise, increased headroom and a more practical addition to your studio. These modified mics are great room mics! Got one you want modified? Want us to supply the mic? Either way, we got you!

Do you enjoy a plethora of options? This wah is for you!
Under the hood you’ll find a highly tweakable circuit featuring trim pots for volume and EQ (low, mids, high) and a series of voicing dip switches. True bypass and status LED too! This thing sounds as good as it looks! Available for sale in our shop or direct from us!

Just finished giving these two Ibanez TS10 Tube Screamers a refresh. In addition to replacing the electrolytic capacitors with higher quality versions with tighter tolerances, we inspected the circuit and cleaned and lubricated the potentiometers and jacks. In other words, it was a major rager here in the shop today!🤘

First time I’ve done this LED mod to a Cry Baby Mini! I wasn’t sure it would be possible but it went smoothly. Got one of these little dudes you want to add an LED to? Get in touch!

If this vintage script logo Dyna Comp could talk…
It was ask for some modern upgrades such as true bypass switching, a status LED and a 9V DC power jack.

Our mod for the Micro Pog, although tedious, really levels-up the potential of this pedal. We add a second bank of controls, selectable by an added footswitch. Status LED’s for each bank of controls, as well as a cool amp jewel status LED. You now have essentially two of these pedals in the same enclosure - a real space saver on cramped pedalboards. Got one of these you want to modify? Reach out!

The MXR Blue Box is a great octave fuzz. Unfortunately, it suffers from an anemic volume output. I’ve seen a few different solutions offered up online - none of which really work well, in my opinion. We do it properly - by installing a small boost circuit inside. The added volume pot for the boost circuit can be placed on the side of the pedal (as pictured) or as an internal trim pot.
Side note: the book in the photo has been a source of daily inspiration and wisdom for a while. It offers up guidance for being a better human being in short daily lessons. I recommend both the mod and the book!

Tech day in the shop. Gotta keep the gear I regularly use in tip-top shape!
