update on the NOCTURNE..those keeping score

workin on a new kind of finish.. the anti hotrod glam
I guess

turns out my box manufacturer now CAN make me a double stomper version of his
box so I dont have to use the hammond ones but rather my 100% recycled alum
ones.
Here's the finished product in ruby sparkle

dig the new Atomic Layout!!!

I NEED one of these, and maybe a 'Billy Brain too!

Gotta keep on-a-savin' some quid!

I'd love to get a Blondeshell in a 112 Combo, yeah I know they sound at there best in a closed back cab but space is at a minimum in my car

uhm welll okay This chassis has the same footprint of the blondeshell but instead
its totally british with saratov EL84s and Gz34 tube rectifier.
it has mercury magnetic tone clone output transformer with a heyboer power transformer. welded aluminum chassis all point to point on terminal strips
with sozo mustard caps and angela wire. Its basically a clone of the Trainwreck design
of a JMI AC30.
Its actually tooo much amp for this size cab unlike the Blondeshell that can purr or
attack, this amp is just ballz out aggressive and snarls instantly. I can almost get
the same sound that Ashley kingman of Big Sandy gets with his voxac50 built into that 1x15 cab..but this one is more of a brute and less of a gentleman.

What de hell...

You built a Combo Amp????
Great!

That amp seems like a Killer. You know I like...er..love a good Vox inspired amp with more on tap! I bet the 1x12 combo would kill with more of an AC15. I bet that Brit amp kills all M*tchless and B*dc*t!!!

Now where is the Supro Thunderbolt inspired number where you don't have to sell a baby to get

new look for the Dyno Brain (pinstripe change up)

The Nocturne "Billy Brain is avail now in "grape'zilla"

and I really needed to make a
video showing how much gain is on tap with this version of the Nocturne pedal as well
as the Atomic Brain.

This vid goes through how all my preamp version sound maxed out.

is it wrong if I dig on the purple?

hey TV, why didnt you play the Classic in yer clip? How does it compare to the Dyno? Someone told me the dyno was set up more for Dynosonic single coils? Sooo, is this true and then is the classic set more for filtertrons?
I needs to know, thanks

the dyno is the classic or brain seltzer now. I just made it more versatile for more amps and guitars. It was a learning curve. The Brain Classic EQ was totally the RE301 which was meant for keyboards range that is waaay below a guitar's.
I still make the classic but its been dialed in for upright bass and has the gain structure of the billy brain. Lee Rocker was just handed his by Brophy Dale for me
I dont know if he'll use it live but I'm quite happy knowing Jonny Bowler from the Guana Batz is rocking this new bass version.

All saying..the Dyno Brain is the upgraded version of the Brain Classic, does exactly what the Classic does but a lot more.

hmm, any bass players or keys guys need a classic/original brain seltzer?!

I really dig the that 'billy brain. Might be over kill with the rangemaster type boost, but that 'billy brain is killer!

had someone commission a White Falcon style Dyno Brain and I found these wild knobs.. check it out

Those gold chickens are fabulous! do they lay golden eggs?!
