Love this thing. It's been done for some time now.

I used BC 108s for the trannies. Great for overdrive, and when you crank it up, just the right about of snarl. The tone controls have major range, great pedal for riding a guitar's volume knob.

Etching is sort of a Mrs. Pac-Man cave art sort of theme.

Nice easy build, wonderful sound.

Cheers.

LOVE that graphic. I get such a kick out of how well that theme was pulled off here. Super.

I'm pretty sure they're just axial film--they're new production from mouser.

Looks like some Mallorys and Cornell Dubliers. Nice! I like the carbon comps as well. Bet it sounds really cool.
