Cambeezy, thanks for the nod! The enclosure is an old clarinet case or something like that.I picked it up at a Value Village store for $5.00. I was waffling on ordering the kit in as I was unsure what to put it in when I found it. I figured it was a pretty good hint that I had to build it....lol I am not obsolete, I am RETRO.... |

I love all the creative or repurposed boxes that peeps have come with. One of my favs is guitarbob's zany amp that he posted here years ago: |

I'm happy to find this thread and all the positive feedback on this kit. Looking forward to it being back in stock. I'm going to order one for me and another for my lead guitarist(who is from Sweden) as a gift. That kid is going to flip out! Thanks for the quality work Bjorn. The circuit board and layout look really top notch! Mutt |

It's taken me way too long to build this thing due to time constraints, but now that I've heard it: Seriously. Just wow. Bjorn rules. I hope to record this through my Sonido and add to the pile of great demo's soon. — |

Just got a 2nd board from Bjorn for another build! Here's hoping the incoming Korean-made Accutronics pan sounds better than the MOD. Last edited: Nov 26, 2014 09:58:05 |

let us know on the accutronics pan. I like the MOD but man it dwells on forever. Hard to get that quick "schboing" attack. —The Kahuna Kings https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Kahuna-Kings/459752090818447 |

I think Slacktone Dave has a pan switch in his arsenal. Teiscofan wrote: — |

Beast. You are the Beast! This just gave me a great idea. I have room on the other side of my box to hang another pan and be able to switch between the two. Waiting on Cams report back on the accutronics pan. —The Kahuna Kings https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Kahuna-Kings/459752090818447 |

Now you'll need a foot switch to go from rhythm to lead pan! |

My vintage Crafstman 18" toolbox has vertical space for more than 2 pans. An A/B switch for Send and a Y-junction for Return would give selectability. — |
