CONTEST Inventory Builds - Player Hater’s Ball 2025

Ahem, around here we call that a pro bono consultation.

I just finished this up. Here is my submission to hate freely. Buddy said I should do a write up...

I built it out of hatred for mediocrity. I don't actually plan on using it. But it sounds cool for what it is. I started popping the board previously and set it aside. I had to mod a pot since that all I had on hand, since I didn't cheat. This stupid ass enclosure I got years ago from smallbear can suck my ass. Shitty ass powder coating shows all the scratches and grind marks underneath. Did a no film decal and used a Norse Valkyrie glyph, so @jcpst can shut his whore mouth

So now I get to do some ball busting. Let the hating commence.

Neat. Tidy.. but one of the diodes looks irritatingly a millimetre to the left.

For kicks and giggles I asked chatGPT for a reimagined design. It rolled in the treble into the presence. It also suggested a second stomp switch with“Asgard” (tight modern) and “Midgard” (looser vintage) voicings. And before you ask.. I have no *****ing idea what Rebel is but you know what.. that's as good as 'deep' in meaning!

Probably something similar to the Character control on the Landmighty overdrive. (Not AI, believe it or not)

Is it possible to add a puking emoji to the options for reacting to a post?

 

[ICTRock]

more than one font, clear knobs, mismatched knobs, knobs on the side of the case, switch witness holes in opposite directions, a fucking paddle lever switch and their logo includes screws like it's a name plate.

speaking of mismatched knobs, witness hole orientation problems, and things that shouldn't be silkscreened ... holy reverb shops, big monk

Go for it. I'll make sure it's handled appropriately, along with the rest of the negative reviews.

well now you've ruined my morning because I'll spend it imagining negative reviews of this place ... and laughing to myself about the customer always being right

Doesn't the Valhalla want to see 12-18V ? Honest question.

 

[ICTRock]

You can’t find a misaligned hole in your day to day, let alone on that mock-up.

what is that? about 9:30, 10 o'clock there big shoots?

 

[ICTRock]

“Is it in yet?!”

Yeah, the wiring was clean, but she’ll be damned if she felt anything but shame.

Yeah but I filled all the holes I drilled

[ICTRock]

All jones aside, this is some X-Files shit. That pedal has never been made with offboard wiring so I can’t even explain how that happened unless I got a very strange batch of switches.
