Good job!
And once that board is squished down in there and the bottom screwed on, you'll never see it.
Well, until someone opens it up again...
Thanks. I prefer larger knobs, but on this one I really wanted to use the ones with the green indicator. Plus larger diameter would obscure the text. They are a very tight fit though, so I hope they don't have to come off any time soon! Now that I have discovered how good Tayda prices on pots and knobs are, I will mostly use round pot shafts and knobs with set screws. Much easier to work with.Quote:

I think that screen printing over powdercoated enclosures should be more resilient (and more professional looking).

Igor would of used pliers. All the stuff inside goes over my head but a great looking pedal. I imagine FW would be pretty happy.Quote:

I have a review in a PM. It's up to Igor and FW if they want to post anything here. All I will repeat are the words "telecaster, blues, monster". And something about growling, but I think that was Igor's stomach.Quote:
