demo of wallwart pickup potted in casting resin

I"m plugged into a micro cube with volume and gain at 12 o"clock to demo how quiet these things are. They don't hum or pickup string squeeks. They also sound good on ALL of the channels on the Cube. Hopefully you guys can hear what I mean, I can't see the video on my computer at the moment.

Thanks Derek! This box sounded like a little cajon when I found it. I was hoping it would be loud and it is.

Good stuff Rick!

Cool, there easy and cheap to make, just a bit time consuming. Half the battle is getting the wire out of the wallwart. I think Turtlehead made a post about these a while back. I'll see if I can find that and get back to you.
