Yeah of course I will. If you're thinking of picking up a kit I'd do it soon as they flew out last time and it's not definite they'll be doing another batch after this one.

Hey guys.
Looking for the Woolly Mammoth cartoons and parts list. I've contacted three handfuls of people, they don't want to respond. Can anybody help me out here?

Am I looking for the wrong thing, maybe it's under a different clone name?

Banzaieffects.com should have everything. I'm gonna order a pedal off them soon if you want me to add what you need to the order.

 

[theoootini]

cool. won't be doing anything with it for a while but i'll let you know.

where's the noob section where I can ask all kinds of beginer questions like what do I need (other than off my parts list) to start making pedals?

have a look at www.beavisaudio.com and www.diystompboxes.com both have sections regarding what you need and some introduction to effects in general. Beavis tech pages is especially good.

Also like Moose said, the beavis site is a great resource too. He lays out some stuff nice and clearly. If you've never built a pedal before though, I'd recommend starting with a kit for something like a boost or simple overdrive.

Check out generalguitargadgets.com for some great affordable kits with pre-drilled enclosures. For starting I'd recommend something like a Way Huge Red Llama Overdrive, Stratoblaster Boost, or else The Jordan Bosstone. Both the Red Llama and Bosstone are on special offer too.

These kits are great to learn with before building your own from scratch

And sorry for not replying to your pm I had a run in with mr z vex recently so was a bit sceptical of someone asking for those layouts/cartoons.

I was lurking on fastfude and seen some guy looking for a mammoth without the hefty price tag so I offered to make him one, next thing yer man turns up giving out.

Needless to say I was a little apprehensive when someone turned up here looking for layouts off me.

Yeah I can see why you'd be apprehensive alright. Dunno what to make of that dude. He comes up with some cool ideas, charges through the nose for them, and always has fits if someone clones his pedals. While part of me would feel weird about buying a cloned pedal by a small builder (ie not Boss, Digitech etc.) when I see him charging so much for such simple pedals with a fancy paint job, I'm like fuck it, I'd rather go the cloned route. The SHO has fuck all parts and yet still costs a shit load for what it is and does. I just don't see how he can justify charging so much for them. No doubt he'll be posting a reply to this in no time to defend himself

From what I can gather a lot his cool ideas were helped along by other diyers, he then kicked off big time when someone posted a schematic of one of his pedals. It's pretty much the saga that caused the split from diystomp.. to freestomp... If you ever have a load of time to kill read the "big cat fight" thread on freestompboxes. He seems to lie through his teeth about where ideas come from and the technology in his pedals, has a habit of contradicting himself too when caught . This is just from what I've read anyway, but maybe it's people making up lots of lies about him to make him look bad...

A good comparison is Dave Main from DAM he seems like a totally straight up guy. Really want to buy one his pedals, such perfect building and around half the price of a vex pedal too.
