BEEFUS and the ELECTROACOUSTICAL BANJO

it are BEEFUS an hims new ELECTRIC-ACOUSTIC mutant fat-fry twang-n-bludgeon wand, the MEATIER.
Description: made of plywood and soda cans, it features a Remo practice drumhead with a pickup under it, and another pickup by the neck. both are passive single coils controlled by separate volume controls, with a single tone pot. The drum pickup detects the vibrations from a metal shim (cut from an Altoids tin) taped under the head. As the film demonstrates, various pedal combinations can give anything from a fairly twangly banjo sound to a bruising distorted roar, with no feedback problems (unless you want feedback; you can dial that in, too.)
"EARL" MODE: No pedals, slight gain and presence boost on amp
"HOG BREATH" MODE: high-gain overdrive, bass-boost EQ
"NEUTRON MEAT SPIDER" MODE: Flanger, chorus, low-gain overdrive, compressor, delay at 2, spring reverb on 3
"BRAIN BUCKET" MODE: Medium-gain overdrive, chorus, wah-pedal set back a bit
"PLUTONIUM CHOP SUEY" MODE: all knobs at MAXIMUM BANJOCALYPSE
