/085 - When It Rains It Pours

New friends/projects from 2 Craiglist deals today.

I have a thing for old Yamaha amps. They sound great and can be had cheap, though prices are steadily climbing because the secret is out. Got this from a guy who was downsizing in preparation for a move to Europe. It seemed hard enough to move across the US, I can’t even imagine hopping continents. Anyway, he said it has had an issue blowing fuses in the past but right now it works great other than needing some contact cleaner on the pots. I really didn’t need another amp, but for $25 I found it hard to resist.

These ugly pedals! I had the chorus many years ago and remember it fondly after giving it away to a young guitarist. They don’t sound bad as is, but a quick internet search tells me there are a bunch of mods that can be done to these (Fab chorus, overdrive, and echo if the image isn’t clear) and I am apparently a glutton for a long project list. Why mod? Why not. haha
