1971 Fane DEA100 MK IV


Hi all,

I'm back with something different than usual. It's about this amp I have of which I posted a picture on a gear-forum, and it got so much attention that I decided to make a post about it.

Deluxe Tremolo prototype sounds

I am trying out a new feature for my standard tremolo;
An extra knob that lets you go from the standard tremolo sounds into the realm of pitch-vibrato-, harmonic tremolo- and Uni-Vibe flavored phase-sounds.
I need to solve some volume differences between settings, but so far I am very pleased with the sounds it can produce.

Liquitone Octave Fuzz and other prototypes

 Octave Fuzz

This is the octave fuzz prototype I've build a year ago.
It is of the classic Octavia type to give you those classic Band of Gypsies-Hendrix tones,
octave up sounds around the 12th fret area, splattery gated fuzz tones and ring-modulator-like oscillating weirdness.
After a year of playing the thing I decided it is ready for production.
I am going to increase the space between the pins a little to make more room for the styro-cap and axial caps, and it will have neater wiring.
