Anyone here ever owned, begged, borrowed or stole one of these.
I never really new how they worked, interesting actually.

I just assumed that it would sit between the amp and guitar like most effects, but not the case with the original.

I'm not positive but I think we talked about these and someone posted a video of how to make your own talk box. You might want to look around thefret.
