How much hot rodded Marshall can I squeeze into a 125B...?

... well, probably 3 or 4 circuits with submini pots if you're SMD junkie like wgc or chuckbuick or stacking artist like juansolo.

I go instead for 2 today, that'll do me.
I'm not a huge Marshall fan yet you needs some in ya' life don't ya?
So rather than having two boxes and a bit of wasted space I'll get these two flavours of a similar hotrodded Marshall type of thing into one box and can select between them.
The bottom left circuit is a Lovepedal Purple Plexi on my own designed pcb, the top right one is a DAM Sonic Titan, again my pcb design (both pcbs oshpark fabbed).
Both circuits do the balls to the wall cranked screaming Marshall thing quite well I think.



And this is how I'll mount them in the box, put a DPDT switch to select between which one is active.





A bit of shoehorning, the DPDT is a bit burried away...



And the outside, ready to roar:

Awesome execution there.

I had one of those "Why didn't I think of that" moments  :)

Clever with the angled PCBs. Extra points for that!

Damn, Cooder, you've just been killing it lately!
Brilliant idea and brilliant execution.

That's very creative use of space. Nice.
...and then of course I've got this terrible pain in all the diodes down my left hand side...

I'm impressed that you even THOUGHT that would all fit.  It even looks like there's still room for a battery.  Nice!

Nice work, sir!
Love that finish, too!
I build, and once in a while I might sell, pedals as "Vertigo Effects".

Thanks for the kind comments, guys!
Glad you like the squeeze.... ;)
If anyone is interested I have a spare Lovepedal Purple Plexi board left, 10 bucks shipped anywhere.

Merlin's beard, very impressive :-)
What did you mount the relay board on? Or is it just hovering in the air with a magic spell ?
