What do I have here?

Scored this today, haven't tried to power it up yet. Supposedly has new tubes. Any info about it? Obviously the speakers aren't original. The fender any good? What is the other one?

Pedal orgy - recommendations

3D Printed a pedalboard for myself. Chose the size based on my Mesa amp. I like having it up out of the way.

Anyone have recommendations on pedal combinations?

I am pretty new overall, been playing at least an hour a day for the last 14 months.

The Tubezoid B I picked up in Spain while I was there for work. I was previously using it on the effects loop of my boss katana. Warmed up the sound nicely. Not sure it still belongs with the Mesa?

I did ask AI, but man I have a hard time trusting it. Lol

NPD: mystery is a Warmdrive!

Very stoked about this pedal, it was one I was curious about. Thinking about pairing it with my JHS fumble and Tubezoid B.....all part of the fun is experimenting!

NPD: Trip scores!

JHS Fumble arrived today, bday gift from my mom.

I had a work trip that I opted to drive instead of fly. Wanted to look for gear along the way. Lol. Sent offers before I hit the road, 2 of them worked out!

NAD Crate & Peavey

Scored 2 new amps today! Picked up the Crate for $20 then randomly hit a pawn shop. Got the Peavey for $95.

The crate is a limited edition out of 1000, anyone know anything about it?

How about the Peavey? Its basass looking, gonna try it hooked up to my Marshall 4x12.

Pawn shop score

I had just picked up a Crate amp for $20 when I randomly decided to stop at a pawn shop. My wife has turned out to like the hunt for music gear and noticed this on a shelf I passed by. Lol. After a little haggling we got it for $95.

Gonna hook it up to my Marshall 4x12

Anyone know anything about these? It has 2 "ON" positions, each abve a set of speaker outputs. I am guessing I flip it to the position my speaker is plugged into?

My DIY setup

I am a mechanical engineer and design stuff for fun and for work. I am enjoying experimenting with pedals and wanted a platform to swap stuff in and out easily.

​

Everything is 3D printed. Used some aluminum extrusion off amazon.

Weekend scores!

This never happens to me, but I scored a bunch of pedals at a garage sale and an estate sale.

Top row was the garage sale.

Bottom row was the estate sale.

Anyone have thoughts or opinions on these? Anything that isn't great?

Fixing sticker damage on a vintage Peavey

I scored this 1983 Peavy Horizon 2 at a garage sale. Its in pretty damn good shape, love the color but the body had a bunch of stickers on it.

Used a heat gun to remove the stickers and naptha to get any leftover adhesive.

The problem is, the stickers seemed to have sunk into the finish. There is a sharp edge where they all were.

Recommendations? I was thinking of 2000 grit wet sanding it to blend the edges?

I know my bench is out of control! 😂

I am trying to record on my phone to chart my guitar progress.

Boss katana 100W Gen 2

Samsung S23

Have a printer USB cable that does data transfer

Have the adapter to USB C

Downloaded Open Camera App for video capture

So it does not work. If I record video the open camera app uses the phone mic not the amp. I did specify USB as the audio source.

Did not work on the default video player either

Any tips? I checked with AI but no help so far
