JohnC	Re: BassBalls schematic - seek no more I have an original (made in USA) Hard to describe. Originally I think they were intended for bass guitars, but some one found they sounded great with guitars too. If you find one, try it. Once you hear one (at least the originals...) you will recognize it's great sound anywhere. It's capable to be selective-sensitive to the attack, so if your attack is soft, it sounds more or less like a phaser or flanger. BUT! if you dig hard... it's like the guitar is kind of talking while making bubbles ore something like that. Quite funky. JohnC
