I had some weird problems with this one. I wired it in non true bypass mode, but the pedal did not turn off, and the kill dry had delay only. I de-soldered  some wires and used my audioprobe but could not find the error
Then I remembered that the PT2399 was bought from Tayda....
Then I swapped the PT2399 and it was all good, and it sounds awesome :)
Thanks Brian!

The color is green sparkle spray paint with purple sparkle on top, the decal is printed vinyl.





I had some 1uF axial caps I had to use :)


Also I bought a bunch of Alpha pots from Tayda (ROUND SHAFT PC MOUNT), they are a bit hard to turn and the shaft is a little small, whats up with that?

The swirl thing is borrowed from the internets and edited a bit in Photoshop :)

This is sometimes caused by having the knobs grinding on the pot nut a bit, these days I try and lift the knob a millimeter or two before I tighten the set screw.

Very nice build, I wish I could do pro graphics like that :)

That's not the case here, the shafts on the Tayda pots are tighter without knobs on, and they are smaller in diameter. Turning them feels like turning really cold pots.

I know what you mean, my second Horace build is like that.

That looks great! How/where did you get the vinyl sticker printed?

Loztboy

I printed it on my canon printer. The sticker is printable vinyl with a transparent layer on top. I don't remember the brand. I can check later.

drolo

That would be great if you don't mind :-)
with a transparent layer on top, you mean you sprayed some clear coat on it?
