no ha! that's a Korg Pandora PX2 multi effect unit, which is going inside my next project - a scratch plate strat. I was given it years ago with a bung input socket. Lots of 1990s ridiculous effects and overdrive fun, ideal for a travel guitar...

I have a Korg AX10G and it is very silly. Does get some nice sounds at times, but its so complicated, trying to replicate something you did earlier requires taking extensive notes on the settings you used. It also produces some god awful gibberish nonsense... which is good for annoying anyone who happens to be listening.

I tend to just stab at it and then play any snippets of songs I know that suit the effects that come up.

Hi Sonic,
Yes I agree, very silly. BUT imagine a scratchplate strat with this built into its body, a rechargeable battery via USB, 6w amp and 2 small speakers in behind the scratchplate, as well as a traditional output jack? With a shorty headstock I think I could get it in a standard suitcase and then it would be a whole lot of fun whilst travelling..... that's the next plan. I'm pretty sure I can squeeze this all into the available space...

BTW here's the amp for scratch plate project - it is 5v and 2x3w so I can get the stereo from the Korg too...

and here's the speakers, to go in the place of the centre pickup (so not a whole lot of stereo separation there then)

the power source buried in the body will be one of those phone battery portable rechargers of 5000mAH, at 5w and 5v that should run on a full charge for about 5 hours by my maths - enough to make your fingers sore! Something like this, although it makes a spurious claim about its capacity I'd say...
