Special shoutout and thanks to @thewintersoldier for hooking me up with this pcb. It’s the Guardians of the Analog Power Boost. Essentially, the Madbean Donut but designed for a 125b enclosure. The Donut is basically an EHX LPB-1. There’s no fancy stuff going on with this circuit. Just a simple, one transistor, make it more loud pedal. That’s all it does but, it does it so well. Keeping with my Old West flare, I used the only power representing thing I could think of for my art. A steam locomotive.
The locomotive on my enclosure is the Virginia and Truckee No. 11. Also know as the Reno. Built in 1872, she spent a big part of her life hauling passengers from Virginia City to Carson City and Reno. In 1937 she was retired from active service to become a movie star. From 1937 to 1969 the Reno was used in several movies and TV commercials. In 1970 she was sold to Old Tucson studios where she continued her life in television and movies. In 1995 she was damaged by a massive fire which ended her running life. She was later cosmetically restored in 1997 and used in the film Wild Wild West. Since then, she’s been on display here at old Tucson studios. In August of last year, Virginia and Truckee Railroad reacquired the Reno to restore her to operational condition.
So, how about that? Come to look at a build report on a boost pedal and you get some education on a steam locomotive.
