Brand New DVM-made ZYS Mark II to benefit Moore OK tornado relief
Several of you own one, and a lot more of you have heard about the Zonkin' Yellow Screamer Mark II, aka the ZYS. You may also be aware that I don't build them anymore, though I do have an arrangement with another guy who does. Simply put, this is the best damn modified Tube Screamer overdrive that you will ever hear--great boosted/overdriven tone and incredible flexibility. Maybe a couple of the Fret.net ZYS owners will stop by and corroborate my claim.
Anyway, given the tornado disaster in Moore, Oklahoma a couple of weeks ago, I came up with the bright idea of building a ZYS and offering it for sale here, auction style. I just want to get $50 out of it to cover my materials cost (I'm donating the labor). My business associate currently offers this pedal, fully painted & decaled, for $200, and he's selling a LOT of them. So let's start the bidding at $150, so that at least $100 goes to those unfortunate folks in Moore. But I'm hoping we can do better than that, so lets see some "competitive generosity" here, people! Post your bids right here in the thread. You can't lose--it's for a good cause and you get a great pedal!
BTW, the pedal is already built & painted, so it just needs to be decaled and get the final clearcoating. For those of you unfamiliar with the ZYS, here are a few tidbits for you:

Oranges and lemons, say the bells of St. Clements...
Couldn't you find a better looking and better playing demo guy? Gee, that guy plain sux!
Plus, his hair is too thin.
Seriously though, this a great initiative - bid high, enjoy a great pedal and know you will be making a difference for people in need.

The ZYS has landed...!
(after a small detour, as I mistakenly swapped two numbers on my zip code, but USPS eventually caught on).
It *does" scream!
I have nice neighbors - so far.
Thanks to DVM for the nice touch on the inside cover.
