Hi,

I took advantage of the sunshine today to take some pictures of my just finished
Meazzi Factotum conversion:

It's basically a clone of Colin Pryce - Jones Factotum echo.

All minor niggles sorted out and working great...

Hi Amanda
As Roger says, it looks new. Is it the one I saw when I collected my AC15? as that one did sound good.
What do you mean, it's a clone of CPJ's Meazzi?
Super piece of kit. Keep up the good work.
Regards Geoff.

Hi Geoff,

If the one you saw was in a rusty case this is it:

I looked at the pictures of Colin's Meazzi tape echo and decided I wanted the switches where
the meter would have been, so I got to work and this is the result..

Is repet a spell error for repeat on original?

Hi Mike, I have a Meazzi Factotum and it says the same 'Repet' I think it may be short for repetitive.

Hi again Amanda.
Thats the one. A regular rust bucket, but look at it now. Have you changed the number of heads and the spacings?
Regards Geoff.
