OK, so you know I’ve been working on my Nightmare Engine, or whatever I’m calling it today (I can’t settle on a moniker yet). And last weekend, I built a stand for it…
And I did some preliminary tests. I’m getting a heck of a buzz/hum off the amp, but otherwise, I think it’s coming along. It’s amazing what some contact mics, springs, guitar strings, sticks and ping-pong balls, a violin bow, a vibrating toothbrush, a wah pedal and a delay effect can do.
Let me know what you think.
Oh, and for those of you who are of–shall we say–a certain age, I’m sure you get my reference…
Perhaps, later this week I’ll post a lil’ “School’s Out” in honor of my high school-graduating son, Jack!
