Title: Second build. Slow loris.
Post by: Bandersnatch on September 17, 2018, 08:07:33 PM
Over all I am super happy about this pedal. Sound is exactly what I wanted. I originally wanted the clipping diodes to light up the plate. I didn't want to do a rat with light up eyes because it was done before. But since I didn't want to change the sound and the leds probably wouldn't light the plate to bright. I went with leds on the switch to light the plate. I really wanted to use the clipping leds for something so I found this rat skull pic and used it on a water slide for the decal. I am not happy with the gut shot at all. One it is a mess in there and Two I used all purple wire :/ its all I had at the time. This is one box that I will definitely redo the wire in at some point in time.

I also did this project with my daughter she is 8yo has a daisy rock strawberry  lemonade guitar and a fender mustang 1 amp. It's just a foot switch for changing between two channels. She did the art work and I put it on waterslide decal for her.

That rabbit is awesome.  Your daughter needs to do a line of pedals now. :-)

Haha yeah I like how it looks worried like "you aren't going to stomp on my face again". I should start letting her design my pedals now.

Nice!

Your wiring on the rat looks like EQD artwork.

Put me down for a rabbit if she starts freelancing.

And you, good sir, doing a light plate for a second build?  Ballsy move but well played.
