STOMP BOX REVISITED -AN IDEA SHARING VIDEO

[dee304]

I'm gonna try something like this when I build mine but I'm gonna put a Pickup in it

[zombietomatoes]

it rules! one of the best stompbox i'v seen! well, i would feel bad if i steal your idea and i'm searching for my own stompbox concept, but i wonder what sort of pick ups are using here? simple piezo?

[mudshrimpmoe]

I've watched a number of these DIY stomp box videos and I think you've come up with the best sounding design, and probably the cheapest to boot. I may steal your ideas, but also install a pickup inside of it.

[loslo]

Dude, you come up with the best sounding stomp boxes

[BeesWaxBC]

I love it. Glad I found your video

[isaacullah]

Adding that license plate was a brilliant idea. I just added one to my own stompbox (built out of a similar box to the one you use). It sounds great! Thanks for making this vid!

Very cool. I like it a lot. I'm off to the thrift store today :)

[doogey9]

thanks Anna....let me know if you find anything cool....i love swapping ideas :)

[KenMiddletonUkulele]

You have some wonderful ideas, Todd.

[doogey9]

thanks so much Ken.....some of these guys and gals who build and talk on the cigar box guitar forums have amazing ideas....just amazing :)

[floydbluethereal]

Awesome thing!

[doogey9]

thanks so much :)

[AvidiaNirvana]

great idea

[doogey9]

thanks friend...it works pretty well for what i'm doing....next percussion thing might be an old hard walled suitcase with a kick pedal attached to it :)

[UkesterBrown]

You need one more foot! Sounds cool.... I've gotten a nice cedar "hanky" box from Savers a while ago. I think I'm making a hanky-box uke out of it at Thanksgiving. Thanks for the creativity!

[doogey9]

you have Savers?!!! that's the best thrift store in my area....that's where i found this box....and some great tins....

oh and the goodwills here have 50% off of everything in the store every other Saturday :)

[russbuss415]

now that's just neat!

[doogey9]

thanks Russ :)

[ken6675]

very cool sounding stomp box, very inventive.

[doogey9]

thanks Ken :)

[FatBaldGuy60]

Todd, you appear to flush more creativity down the john every day than I produce in a week. Wonderful music, cool homemade instruments...if I had more sense I'd be jealous! Instead I will just admire.

[doogey9]

ha ha ha ha!!!

thanks for the encouragement...truth be known, some of this stuff is just therapeutic for me.....i'm not very mechanically inclined, i'd say i've got just a pretty 'o.k.' knowledge of my work field, but this stuff (music and what not) is what i think about most of the time....

[UkeIndy]

I likey, too!

[doogey9]

thanks Lonna and thanks so much for the encouragement regarding the interview with woodshed....it was fun!

[kc8afw]

Great idea! Good way to recycle, too.

[LeoHareMusic]

Thanks for the tip--I have just such a box!

[doogey9]

have fun....and post it!!!

[uke5417]

That sounds great, Todd. Door thingees look like strike plates for a lock set.

[doogey9]

ha ha....yes, strike plates....strike plates...thanks Bruce :)

[weegingayin]

If you ever give up music you have a great future in France stomping grapes:-)

[doogey9]

would they have me?

[weegingayin]

With that pumping leg action definatey

[ukeninja1]

Nice one. The nearly screwed down plate is a similar principle to the snare part of a cajon, if you've come across them. Sounds great

[doogey9]

Hi Mark,

i've heard of and seen Cajons, but i didn't realize that...

coolness...cheers,

todd
