'The Music Room'
"THE MODMAN"
Are you tired of el-cheapo Orange Xicon's
Do you suffer from flimsy, noisy switch contacts
Are those lowly electrolytics giving you nightmares
The "Modman" will come to your rescue
In one heating of the soldering iron you get a
Mundorf/Elna/Obligato/Black Gate transfusion !
Warm up that Glue-Gun and peel that Velcro.
"If it ships....it fits"
This page is dedicated to my good friend Valentín who loves to modify equipment with exotic parts.
We also have lot's of laughs when we get together and joke about this side of the D.I.Y. hobby.
Apart from extremes, I haven't met anyone who more actively seeks to exterminate any components
that costs less than $1.00
Bean Counters reset your calculators and update your cost sheets the Mad-Modman is here !!
What cheap parts may be lurking inside this one ??
