Godoy v2

[crabink]

Has anyone ran this machine?
I am looking for a soft shader for smaller needle groupings and this is 600.00.
Anyone have this machine?
Is it worth it?

I got tattooed by one of these a few years ago and he only used a 5 rnd shader and a 9 mag. It took 8 hours and my leg wasn't beat up at all.

i just got A "Godoy V3' off a trade for a juan puente power supply. An i must say these machines are bad ass and on another level.Id definately say to pick it up and give it a try. Alot of people dont like these guys. But speak on personal experience with the godoys they are cool as fawk and on some next level shit for sure. And heads up this machine can do it all Line,shade,and pack color with no adjustments what so ever. All u need to do is adjust ur power supply . But like anything eles its up to the tattooer to really make this machine something special.

honestly I HIGHLY recommend you get a machine made by Jim Rosal - his machines are smooth as silk and at 400 each you cant go wrong

i recently sold 1 of their Banana machines, ran a little warm but was a sweet runner. Got rid of it to fund more rotarys!

i have 2 of them.not my 1st choice for soft shading.the first one i have is a first generation v2 that actually has its coils in a V shape.it has 6wraps coils with 21gauge wire.godoy changed it later on and made front coil leaning forward and reare one str8 in order to be able to use smaller armbar.also he changed the gauge and made it thinner.dont know the size but i think it must be 23-24 g.the frame is also thinner and lighter.they carry 100uf capacitors so you can understand that these machines are very strong.yes they are all around machines but they dont do shading for realism.i would say oldschool shading.lining with small grouping is great but they cant take more than standard 7L.they are great for color building and packing.and all these in the range of 5-6v.

I have ran just about all of the Godoys, and the v2, is not a fave of mine..On the bright side, it is a less complicated design than the "twin caps" Superfly ,however,at 600 bucks, expect to get a fraction of that back if you decide you don't like it...They have a "lifetime" warranty,which, doesn't cover certain parts, and if you retune the machine, then the warranty is void..Up to you,but, I would look elsewhere....

That pretty crazy to read?. I thought the Godoys were cool as fawk. I had got a V2 on a trade and when i got the machine it was all fucked up Looked like shit and was in terrible condition. I contacted the Godoys and went down to their warehouse and they completely re-buit that machine for me no questions asked and after they were done i had a brand new machine that runs amazing. Thier builds are on some next level shit for sure but never once did i get any bad service. And they pretty much told me any problems with the machine come to them and they will take care of me?

You are lucky then Joey, I had a brand new Superfly, that, due to a design fault snapped the solder on the 2nd capacitor, I was told that caps were not covered, I sent pics to show what the problem was, even offered to pay for the replacement to keep the machine original, and was told to go to Radio Shack..
