Custom x0xb0x by the master, Andy Pledger (UK)

This box is just simply amazing. I bought it a few months ago from the original owner, made a few tracks with it, and am only selling it because someone ended up parking their mint condition TB-303 in my studio indefinitely. So I'm moving this along due to redundancy (and to fund a well-known drum machine purchase).

Here's some of the original owner's listing: 

Here's my "one of kind" x0xb0x for sale.
Andy Pledger made this one for me last year....
He makes his x0x's with care and only uses top quality parts.
This x0xb0x is built like a tank!
I've owned probably 3 or 4 x0x's since ladyada came out with kit, and this one is by far the nicest build I've ever seen. It's sturdy and heavy.

It's in MINT condition. No scratches, dents, etc. Nada. The photos show piece of lint, next to the logo...
That fell off after pics were taken!  

This one has only lived in my smoke-free studio since day 1.
I've probably written close to 20 or so tracks with it, one of which comes out on wax this month!  >:) It sounds like liquid acid.

It's body with metallic, blue.  Not painted.   It's blue anodized aluminum.
The knobs and side cheeks are also anodized. Solid, silver billet.  Both custom, with the knobs containing the custom x0x logo.

It's got nice GREEN leds.
It's tough to photograph the true green color.  (my camera makes them look light blue almost) Have a look at the green color that's reflected on the metal knobs. That's the true green color of these leds.

Here's some notes from Andy about the build: -------
This is a hand built x0xb0x using all the correct parts as per the adafruit build guide.
All the correct high end Hardware.
  •  Greyhill Encoders
  •  Alpha & Panasonic Pots
  •  NKK Switch
  •  No cheap or counterfeit parts.

Adafruit took the time to Clone the 303 as close as possible.
I'm proud to say mine has these parts inside.
  •  Matched 2SC536F transistors in the VCF
  •  2SC1583 & 2SC2291 Matched Transistor Pairs in the VCO and VCF.

The only exception is the Ultra Rare Roland BA662A
The BA6110 has been used in its place as per the adafruit design.
 I match the transistors in the current mirrors.
Fit the very cool  "Click-Be-Gone" mod.
Select each BA6110 that goes in for low noise and DC offset.
-------
I didn't, and you shouldn't, worry about the BA662A.
Studies have shown, it doesn't sound any better.
In fact, it's quieter.  
I've never worried about the sound of this acid machine.  :)
This x0xb0x comes with a new USA 9V PSU that I bought for the machine, last year.  It's also top quality. Also, you get a bound x0xb0x manual from Andy!

Also, this x0xb0x is supplied with sokkOS1.9.1 firmware. Which is totally the best OS I've used on any x0x!

If you have any Qs... let me know. thanks!
