That looks good, Chris. The vinyl wrap solves several problems at once. Where's your tank hiding?

The tank is sitting off to the side. This pic is just the test to make sure the chassis works. I'll build a traditional reverb unit cabinet for the tank and chassis. But it will be a bit smaller. —"You can't tell where you're going if you don't know where you've been" |

Solved the issue I had with the hum from the tremolo. The tried a different 12v power supply and no hum. Only difference is it's slightly bigger and higher amperage (1.5A) while the other was 1.2A. Guess is it is better filtered or isolated from ground better or something... Anyway it's now super quiet and sounds so good and surfy! Finished the 2nd for the other guitarist in the band. Can't wait to try them live. https://www.facebook.com/theterrasurfers http://guitarup.bandcamp.com |

The SurfyBear DIY Kits are back in stock as promised! After the launch we temporarily ran out for the large volume of orders. Anyway here they are. Remember the 12V power supply and the reverb pan are not included... you can buy them separately at the ACCESSORIES page. —Lorenzo "Surfer Joe" Valdambrini |

Thank you for the kind words folks... I'm still waiting for my first kit.Been a month. Made the mistake of not using DHL.I ordered three kits total.The other two came in 3 days.DHL is great! When connected after the Surfy Bear reverb on the brown setting you can hear a chorusing effect that is incredible!That is the Robin Trower sound. These are used with my 18 watt Marshall clone turning it into a Fender! Bjorn, you are a genius! Last edited: May 03, 2017 09:14:01 |

I'd like to pair a Surfy Trem to my latest acquisition according to GAS, of a Ceriatone Lead & Bass (20w Marshall 2061X clone) with matching Sourmash 2061CX 2x12" cab. |

I'd have to purchase the kit first! I would put it alongside the extant Surfy Bear FET Reverb installed in the lid of a rusty Sears Craftsman toolbox. It's about the same size as a "real" reverb unit. |

I finished my Surfy Reverb tremolo combo last week. "You can't tell where you're going if you don't know where you've been" Last edited: May 22, 2017 18:27:03 |

No. I had some brain farts while wiring it, but those are on me. It works really well, and sounds just like my "real" brown face tremolo and Gomez tank. These kits are super! —"You can't tell where you're going if you don't know where you've been" |
