Bobbe Seymour sells the new Flux Capacitor Mod for the Franklinizer. With the new mod installed, it will work like the Emmons Bar Spinner in addition to the Hughey Glass Breaker and the Newman Pocket Tabber. |

Looks a lot like the one I had except mine had a humbucker instead of those single coils and the push pull attenuation meters were mounted on the side. |

Don,
It's really quite simple
FLUX CAPACITOR FUNCTION
The main thing is that these "mods" are pseudo atoms, in a device, and can be made into a pseudo wire. Because of their trilaminar design, only a static voltage or an intense magnetic field is required, NOT the 10 gigawatts of power as in the older mods. This is because each "atom" or "Mod" is a hyperspatial environment WHERE MOTION OR RELATIVE POSITION ARE IRRELEVENT, NOT POWER. It's just basic Southern math that any third grader should be able to understand.

The analysis presented that theorized that there was no need for the 10 gigawatt power. The efficiency of the unit not withstanding,the inductive reactance of the string interaction with the fingers will negate the effect of the capacitance of the device. One must consider the phase angle of the real to apparent component of the applied energy. This will, of course, proportionally increase the playing speed.------------------

Henry, to answer your question, the device is a solid state/tube hybrid, developed in part by Willie Nelson from the by-products of BIO-Diesel.Don, you are exactly correct! Damir, here is a picture:  [This message was edited by Gary Watkins on 15 June 2006 at 09:35 PM.] |

Gary,Franklinizer has been sold.Right now I`m trying to get some Egosupressor Pro IV units since I know many guys down town who would kill for one.Great gadget,makes you get a gig much easier. Db if you use that with a Get-A-Long module it really has a great effect ------------------

you guys have some pretty cool gadgets..I'm still trying to get my "Phrase-Recaller" to operate properly. I don't think it's the battery though. The unit works great at home but everytime I bring it to a gig it stops working completley. After I fix that I'll move on to one of the more advanced gadgets like you guys have. |
