Wow, Wayne really packs these things in here. AND he gives more Bit O' Honeys than Sweetwater. This man should start selling amps, guitars, cabs, drums, pro audio, etc.

Anyways, one is the Pussy Melter clone I won, the other is an idea he and I collaborated on. Thank God he's so good with Photoshop and stuff, otherwise this would've never looked this good. If you get the joke, then you are truly my brother.

the donut drive would be the only pedal Mrs 70 would actually like

Well due to the intense amount of work that went into the design and execution, you have to pay me $5,000 for one and then I will order one for you

What's it do?

What's it do?

It turns all your bad feelings into good feelings. It's a nightmare!

its a phaser

There's no way you made a phaser without me.

not sure if he wants people to guess what it is ......... but I can tell you this ... it surprised the hell out of me .... didn't think it would sound nearly as good as it does ...

All hail the Donut Drive. It's the secret sauce. You wanna sound like Angus? You wanna sound like Eddie? You wanna sound like Dime? Simply plug it into your favorite Line 6 Spider and fiddle with the knobs and switches. It's all there baby.

What does the Burgers switch do on a Donut pedal?! Why is there Pizza?! I need answers!

 

[griff10672]

I'll break it down if he's ok with me telling you guys what it is .....

Eh, apparently no one gets the joke. I'll explain:

It's an Yngwie model DOD 250. I wanted to try one, and figured I'd see if ol' Wayne here had the schematic for one. He did, and mentioned he has the specs for Yngwie's signature version. He said he could add some mod switches.

The donut joke comes from when Dime offered Yngwie a donut backstage as he was escorting some whores to his room. Yngwie got pissed and yelled No, I don't eat fucking donuts! Hence the name of the pedal, the graphic (because he was overweight, so, yes, he did in fact eat donuts), and the icing and sprinkles controls.

The burgers, pizza, and cheesecakes come from the old Psycho Petrucci videos where the guy made up a voice and dialog about how he played so fast that people died. In the Psycho Rig video, he's like oh here's my guitar tech Yngwie Malmsteen. I found him rotting in a ditch. He says he had a career once but I don't believe a word that comes out of his fat mouth. Anyways, he goes on to look at a folder Yngwie handed him and he's like oh, it's a book of cheesecake recipes. Then goes on to name them all, and mention burger and pizza recipes too.

So, while it's a modded DOD 250 clone to Yngwie specs, it's a fun way to nod to Yngwie, since I'm a fan. But, also poke the bear too.

 

[BeZo]

Yeah, but what the Burger switch do?!

 

[griff10672]

to elaborate .... or get to more technical about it ... I've got a spec sheet / schematic for just about every variation of the DOD 250 that there is ...

there's not a lot of difference between them all ... but enough to make them different enough to build different ones ...

so this is a Yngwie Spec 250...... with some traditional mods done to the circuit ...... so as follows

Icing = Gain
Sprinkles = Vol/Level

Burgers = Comp/Gain mod
Pizza = Treble mod
Cheesecakes = Clipping choice ( stock silicon or LED ) LEDs are selected when the switch is down

It sounds way better than I thought it would and it has some decent versatility

 

[BeZo]

So Burger makes it tighter, Pizza makes it fatter, and Cheesecake makes it sweeter.

Makes sense to me!

As soon as I saw the quote on it I knew it was in tribute to Yngwie.

Unleash the fuckin' fury!
