I can’t believe this. Bumpbox is releasing an updated version of the legendary GF-777! I was pretty skeptical at first because their products are typically sound quantity over sound quality…but they are making solid claims that audio fidelity was a priority. Kickstarter price is $550 January 1. Some of the design choices / details bug me a little but they got it mostly right! And, it’s ridiculously feature rich! https://www.facebook.com/share/v/17A6sHLcay/?mibextid=wwXIfr Thoughts? Opinions? I’m dying to hear what everyone thinks.
Wow, looks cool and specs are cool as well, shared with my mates, also looking forward to hearing first impressions!
Same here! Reli on BBX-ry shared some pics & first impressions of a pre-production model - promising!
"Ok I heard one in person, and yeah it'll smoke any vintage, as well as the DJ Tech"....If Reli says this, I'm definitely going to want one! Now hope it actually goes into production and becomes available internationally. I'm not normally a huge fan of retro devices like the Lasonic etc, but this looks absolutely gorgeous!
Interesting. Surprising to see the quality level is higher this time around. It's honestly too early to say if I would ever buy such a reproduction boombox. But I am happy to see such projects being worked on The other forum with the thread on this is simply called bbb777 by the way.
At 28 lbs, it's going to be one of the heaviest boomers made. This is interesting "dual Japanese Cassette Deck"!!! Where did they find these?
I’ve preordered one of the black and gold ‘founders’ versions and I absolutely cannot wait to get it!! Looks beautiful. difficult to decide between that and the OG colour scheme but I just ultimately love the b&g look more even though it’s not as retro looking.
