Sounds like the policy was the result of much :violent1 or the TGP face palm emoticon. Rest assured I'll leave them closed, but I do have batteries in 3/5 of my Bearfoots- so I like I do know how to close a box. Jeez.

I feel sorry for ya Don if that's become a concern in tour boxes. Its been a long time since the Toyz forum eh?

Oh I had thought to super glue them shut ..... maybe next time..... and everything sounds at least as good with batteries - so if it sounds good in a test with an adapter it will sound at least as good with batteries .......

Because not everyone is capable of reassembling them ... which screws it up for those still in line... these are listening opportunities and its most important that they stay in the same condition at each stop.... but have fun playing them :drooling


I suppose we all know a few people who can't operate a screwdriver. :laughing7 I am always shocked by how many people do not know how to swap pickups in a Strat!

Donner, can you please let us know the Voltage ranges for the pedals? Lately I find myself running the Bearfoot Model G, SYODv1 & v2 and the PPF at 12 Volts as well as 9V (and I even have a battery that has just under 6 Volts in the PPF). I am finding that I like the higher Voltages with certain amps, typically non-master, and at higher volumes where frequency response is more important than gobs of gain.

As always the voltage ranges are in the library...
The BearFoot and BJFe ranges are the same

Model G ias the same as the Honey Bee

... and yes the voltage option is like an extra knob it can have as much over all effect as some of the other controls..... :thumbup:

Just an update on the TB...spoke with "YNH", "SKJ", and "Hulakatt" on everyone holding on to the peds a little longer(10 days as opposed to a week), since I will be away most likely by the time it swings by me, so with travel time and all, and everyone being so cool(thanks guys), looks like everything will sail without a hitch...

...and yes, I apologize ahead of time for the sheer agony of having to hold onto and play the fuzzes a bit longer :laughing7
