Here is my latest build (3 and counting), the name comes from a French mate of mine who overheard some woman talking about how she'd had an epiphany to which he turned round and asked (in his heavy french accent) "excuse me, did you just say you have an epic fanny?". I don't think she was too pleased... Anyway, he told me this about the same day as I'd just ordered this kit (it's a green russian btw) and the rest is history. For the American among you (I'm guessing that's most of you), "fanny" in the UK does NOT mean your butt.

No water slide or anything fancy here, I just ripped off ehx graphics (please don't sue me :P) and got them printed on to some fancy sticker paper, I was skeptical but IMO it turned out pretty nice.

I spent an eternity trying to get the wire length down I've lost count of how many times she's been in and out of her box.

hahaha! the puns abound.
very tidy build, nice job :)
Thanks man
That graphic is slick, man! Eternity paid off, that wiring is squeaky clean.
I like I'm not the only one who digs putting inside jokes/stuff you hafta explain on pedals. I also am glad I re-read the top text - I had indeed forgot about the OTHER fanny ;D
Looks great inside and out. The name upholds the long tradition of fuzz circuit innuendo.
I love everything about this down to the story.

Epic ladyparts? :o :o
Nice work :)
That's such a great name for a pedal. Great build!

Epic Phany, they said. In and out of her box, they said. ;D
Nicely done!
Very nicely done. I've never had the patience to put shrink tube on pot leads but it looks SO clean.
Nice build, cracked me up.
I like it a lot, looks mint, love the name :)

Very nice build and story too. I found out about the American use of the word fanny when an American colleague was telling me about a fight he got into and said " the guy pushed be back and I fell straight on my fanny" I spent the next 30 seconds wondering if he was some sort of mutant transsexual.

Haha, love it. I can't help but smirk whenever I hear "fanny pack".

I've posted this before, but I'll do it again since it's topical:
In college, I was in a dorm that paired each local student with an international student. There was a gang of kids from Hull University, and I spent a lot of time (practically all my time) with them. I learned a lot of good slang terms (and just general vocabulary differences) from that lot. But fanny wasn't one of them. So in January of that year (second semester), there was a cold snap and lots of ice all over campus. NC is gash at dealing with any sort of snow/ice, so the whole place was like a skating rink. I see one of the Hull girls walking toward the bus stop outside the dorm, and she slips pretty hard. Flies right up in the air and lands on her....arse. So I hurried over and helped her up, and then said, "Are you okay? Looks like your fanny took the brunt of the fall." Man, the look on her face was priceless. I knew I had said something wrong, I just couldn't figure out what it was. Had a good laugh over it later, but she was cross with me for a bit.
;D :-[

Priceless!
