Boom!

Brand new Whammy 5 bagged from Amazon. Thanks for the heads up, @kelv_w!

I have a Whammy 4 and always thought it was fine but this new one is noticeably smoother in CHORDS mode (polyphonic pitch shifting) and the true bypass is brilliant. No hiss!

RATM in da house tonight, muthafukkas.

I'm never gonna be able to look at a Whammy pedal ever again without thinking about AdolfHipster.

Careful you don't put the 4 and 5 next to each other you are liable to get confused.

Here we go again....

It was inevitable...I agree with @Deijavoo just thinking about roman numerals or even the colour red and BAM!

It's my self-built Mirrortop.

Old photos- I really should take some new ones

Well Matt's Mansons were certainly the trigger but that's not what I made. I just liked the mirror finishes on his earlier ones.

What's the top Stu, a real mirror? Sounds dangerous, and heavy!

Easy to shape/ cut?

Yep. Have you ever cut perspex? Same thing.

Router has no trouble with it but it does kick up a lot of plastic shavings.

littlegreenman

Cool. And seems pretty non-spendy too

*phase 2, "actual thinking" part of plan*

DiscoStu

This is the routered binding channel. See how it cuts!

The sheet was 3mm and I think it cost £15.
