Ah, finally! Nikininja's Buzzard has landed! This is a custom build fuzz box hand build by our own nikininja. So it came yesterday and I plugged it into my Strat Plus Custom using an old fender Bassman head and 2 x 12. Yes it has Attitude and Velocity!

After playing with it for a bit, there were 3 settings I loved immediately. It can be raw-craw buzzard sounding. Or 70s fuzzy sounding, to my favorite Clapton Cream sound! I found myself playing Sunshine of Your Love over and over! Thanks Mr. Niki. Hey guys, do yourself a favor and ask Niki about his newest inventions!

I love the insignia on the front!

Mr X

That you like the thing has made my day. Well worth all the problems I went through getting it to work like I want it to.
No AC adaptor yet, but a very very low current draw from the battery.
If you want the tone pot mod, just let me know.

Into a Bassman eh? The hills are alive, with the sound of buzzing. :lol:

Thanks mate.

While I'm sure Nik's pedals DO have some 'Attitude' its supposed to be 'ALTitude' Xhefri, Altitude...

You know, like the height of an aircraft? Aka a play one the words 'SuperSonic'?

:wink: :lol: :twisted:

Sorry, feeling rather cheeky today, I blame Ceri.

Attitude/Altitude

That was a one off for Mr X. With that great logo from Twelvebar. The rest are bee's with buzz, sting and pollen controls.

Now all I need to do is work out how to use this printer before I launch it at a bonfire.

Boycott Epson folks. Their rubbish.

hey niki, one thing I was not sure of, but think I did it right, and that was knowing which end to plug into. The jack on the left went to the amp and I plugged the guitar into the jack on the right. It worked.... Did I do it right? Wonder what would happen if i plugged in backwards? ummmmm Echo? Delay? Super clean sounding?

It may end time/space continuity as we know it.

Cheers for the heads up. The rest will be labeled. :wink:

Nah, Dr. Who will tip up and set things aright!

Are sound clips in the possible future Mr. Xhefri?

My own recordings of the thing during it's experimental stage

http://www.esnips.com/doc/8de539ae-35ae-457f-ae5c-024facecd310/Supersonic-Buzzard-with-clean-amp

More of a fuzzy overdrive than a all out fuzz pedal.

The clean amp at the begining is that 18watter I knocked up. You can hear it rattle the cooker in the kitchen at one point.

Do put together the full-tilt boogie version for me. I'll run it through my new ZT Club as soon as 'it might be loud' time arrives. 8)
