DHA Posted April 1, 2008 Author Share Posted April 1, 2008 [quote name='Metal-Mariachi' post='167329' date='Mar 31 2008, 11:41 PM']I’d be very interested in buying one. I also think the price is reasonable. Funny I was toying with the idea of sending you an enclosure with my artwork/paint job to build one in. Let us know when they will be available MM[/quote] They are available now. I just need to write the instructions. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfie Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 This sounds like a pretty good deal and I appreciate your efforts to keep your fantastic product available to those on a smaller budget. I was wondering whether you had any tips about painting the encosure? How do you achieve such a thick and hard finish? Is it just a case of leaving the boxes to dry properly for a long time, or are there any particularly strong paints or varnishes that you would recommend? From the smell of it I would say at was some kind of enamel paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannybuoy Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 I really like the shiny metallic finish on the BJFE pedals, you'd probably be able to get that from using Hammerite paint.

VT1-Bass - i/p pad, gain, level, colour switch, bright switch, boost switch. True by-pass with back light LED and effect on LED. - all bits plus instructions etc. plain box which will need drilling and painting - £65 plus £4.25 P&P 2. As above but with pre-drilled box. - £70 + £4.25 P&P. PayPal payments can be made at [email protected] but just write on the notes what it's for.

dannybuoy Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 You should put these on ebay and your website and make an announcement over at Talkbass if you want to shift more of them... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have less time now due to other comments so the kits are just a way of keeping things ticking over until I make other arrangements. So not really wanting to sell lots.
