Ok, up for sale is a bunch of stuff, here are the descriptions:

Kramer Focus 1000 - Serial number 61596, some buckle rashes on the tummy cut, but nothing though the paint. I have made two modifications: A heavy brass tremolo block for the OFR, and a covered 59/Custom with alnico 8 mag in the bridge. I will include the original pickup and trem block that came with the OFR. Comes shipped in a hardshell case. Looking for $375 shipped.

'89 Squier Strat MIK - I got this in a trade from a forum member, but unfortunately I don't play it enough to justify keeping it. It's in great shape, the only issue is that the 2nd tone knob got chipped when I took it to Prague with me - I tried to include it in photos. The frets are great and have plenty of life left in them, the trem block is the same size (bigger actually, but only by a hair) as the callaham block I recently put on my other strat. Fantastic guitar regardless of what it says on the headstock - compares favorably with many of the current MIA fenders. Asking $150 shipped and paypal'd

edit: I forgot to add - this one comes with a gig bag instead of hardshell case. I don't have a tremolo arm for it as I either couldn't find it or it wasn't there when I got the guitar.

Snakeskin pickguard - Made by the now-out-of-business Pickguardfx, up for grabs is a snakeskin pickguard loaded with two fender Single Coils (pulled from my highway 1 strat) and a seymour duncan hot rails (old style) in the bridge. I had this made before I started wiring guitars myself, so it was done by a professional. It's been a while since it's been in a guitar, but the neck (or is it bridge?) on switch works, and it's wired for auto-split in position 2 for vintage-y strat middle-bridge tones.
Asking $75 shipped.

Ok, now for the pedals:
You might remember there being other effects on here. Well, they've been sold and are off to good homes. Here are some more pedals I'm trying to move. All pedal prices include shipping and paypal.

From left to right:
Tweakfuzz - I performed the volume mod and was planning more but I've realized that space is very limited in this pedal. But, it does have the modification for extra volume - lack of volume was the main complaint about this pedal, but this one does not suffer from that! Tons of output now.
Asking $60

GGG Red Llama - I've replaced two of the capacitors in it with tantalum ones - a 10uf with a tantalum of the same value, and the 330uf (pf?) electrolytic output cap with a 47uf tantalum one. The GGG kit is great, but a bit dark, so these mods brighten it up enough to be usable with les pauls without being sharp w/ strats and teles. The paint job was inspired by Hoss - although his are much better looking.
Asking $50

BYOC Chorus/Vibrato - I'm putting a hold on the sale to fiddle around with it some more. Lemme know if you're interested though, I'm just a bit hesitant to let this go right now...

Bump and price drop on the z.vex

edit: I took the z.vex off temporarily so I can play through it some more before I part with it. Its super fun to play with at home, but is kind of a bother to tweak on the fly.

Re: FS: Guitars, Cab, Effects

bump - I got an offer on a separate ad on the z.vex so if you're in the USA and interested in it let me know within the next 24 hours, otherwise it's off to France...
 
Re: FS: Guitars, Cab, Effects

bump - old pedals sold, but check out the new ones!

Also, remember I am open to offers on the guitars, if you are interested, let me know!

Re: FS: Guitars, Cab, Effects

It's a copy of the way huge red llama - it's a distortion/overdrive that's based off a fuzz circuit, but instead of a transistor, it uses an op-amp. It's a really unique flavor of overdrive - I would describe it as a fuzz but with less gain and a sweet sound. Definitely warmer than your average tube screamer/dist +/Marshall Bluesbreaker, but less fuzzy/over the top than your average fuzz pedal. You can roll down the drive and use it as a clean boost, and you can also roll the drive all the way up and use it as a touch sensitive fuzz. It cleans up really well, but I'm really digging my SD-1 that I'm in the process of modding to clay jones specs with the help of freestompboxes.org. I'm also getting an ESV fuzz pedal in the mail soon, so I have two pedals that each get 1 of the 2 sounds that you can get out of this.

So, yeah. Long answer for a pretty simple pedal.
 
Re: FS: Guitars, Cab, Effects

I might have, but I don't really know who I got it from to be honest - I've had it for about a year IIRC, and I've thought a lot about modifying it, but I'm glad I stopped at the volume mod that frank posted - I just picked up a BYOC fuzz face so off this one goes.
 
Re: FS: Guitars, Cab, Effects

Bump once again - If anybodys interested in a BYOC tri-boost with an OC44 transistor for the germanium boost let me know, I'll probably post pictures later.
