Switcha-Rooski Prototype Artwork Finalized

Now that I have this site setup and running — and my wife's schedule is more open — I can get back to work on my guitar effects (over at RAILhead Effects) more steadily. Part of the downtime was due to me waiting on CE certification and other fun compliance paperwork to process, but that's all done now. I was also fighting to get my low-gain overdrive to sound just how I want it — and I'm almost there.

Anyway, that's not what this post is about. A while back we finalized the design for my hand-painted A/B channel switcher, the Switcha-Rooski. The short version of the art's story is this: I handed my wife a drilled enclosure and told her to do whatever the heck she felt like doing to it. Boom — she went to town and come up with a wonderfully bright and colorful design. Here's the final result, fully assembled:

Each one is meticulously hand-painted, and no two are identical. Shoot me an email if you're interested in purchasing one and/or want more details. Also, be sure to bookmark my guitar effects site, RAILhead Effects — and keep your eyes peeled for big news!

Hmmm. The style is reminiscent of some PA speakers I had about 10 years ago. Floral, yet girly.

That artwork looks really nice. Too bad the pedal doesn’t do anything more fun, you know. That would be great art for a tremolo, IMO.

Hey - you have a couple of typos on your links page. Adormama and Lave Cable jumped out at me.

SNAP! That’s what I get for typing while smoking a cigar.

Yeah, I like her design. I can’t wait to unveil the art for The Peach, though!

Oh yeah? When are you gonna drop that one?

I still have to clear coat it, so probably not until this weekend—if all goes as planned.

And then I have to do sound clips, and videos… Ugh.

The backend of the site is looking good, though. The public is still seeing the original design, and I’m trying to decide when to unveil the new CMS version.

Let me know if you need an extra set of hands when you do the demos.

very artistic, i love the design
