It's just a hardtail strat by Artist but it will be 30 years in my possession next year

The blue one is a Madbean Pork Barrel CE-2 Clone (sounds just like my Dad's - only mods are ne5532 for the LFO, 100nF rate cap swapped for a 39nF cap (goes a little bit faster is all) and a 220k resistor on the diffused LED (220k?!).
The Black one is a rare Madbean copy of a Wampler 65 - this and a Peavey Rage 158 (of all things) sounded like I imagined the 74 Fender Twin would... but at sensible volumes.
The grey one is to be a Ross compressor that is currently being modded - I fancied an SP Comp, so took a tonepad DynaRoss I had for over a decade and swapped pots for switches and I'm making the blender this evening - hoping to house it this weekend.
... so that's my bedroom board ...
This is my main board that I use for live sets, gigs and session work ... in my imagination when I'm playing in my bedroom.
the tiny bright onion pedal is a momentary switch that goes to the underside and is split to go to the floral expression pedal (driving the Timefactor) and an on-off to the dry-bell. So with the timefactor pretending to be the top-horn of a leslie and the dry-bell pretending to be the bass cab - I select fast/slow and the dry-bell ramps up or down and it sounds okay...
Here's the splitter to send the stereo signal to the dry-bell (and fuzz and onto the timefactor) and directly to the timefactor... and the handwired momentary-to-latching-flip-flop preset switcher.
one day .. theres always another project & theres always ebay for the leftovers

Do minor cockups count, where I haven't made the guitar exactly to the customers requirement and put it on a shelf to be sorted a later date, some of these later dates could go back ten years or more.
I have several LPJ SC’s that didn't quite make the grade but will most likely make excellent guitars when I get round to sorting them out.
I also have quite a few Thunderbirds bodies that have been sitting on the shelf for years, cannot remember why now. I could finish these off as Fenderbirds as they seem to be quite popular now.
.
I've got a couple of Rosewood necks that I kind of got wrong drilling the holes too adjust the trust rods, just a little bit too deep into the face of the headstock. I very much doubt if it would affect the strength of the neck. I really should finish these off.
Maybe I should have one day a week allocated to finishing off some of the above.
Your life will improve when you realise it’s better to be alone than chase people who do not really care about you. Saying YES to happiness means learning to say NO to things and people that stress you out.
