Wow!  These are both great inside and out but I especially like the colors on the Penneyroyal!

I'm going to do one just for the fun of it, but I think we all agree it would be awesome to see a pcb for the Ross from you Jon.
You know how you can add extra stages to the Ross? That would be cool on a fabricated PCB.

That would be so cool indeed I would be in for sure!
Please make it fit a 125B with topmounted jacks... ;) (steep ask I know...)

Some spiffin' builds here, that analog delay is superb, timbo!

Anyway, for me it's my univibe and I'm also a reverb addict. Those two ingredients are a must.
I have a univibe each for my electric and for my acoustic guitar board as I dig the vibe setting for acoustic guitar as well.
Reverb wise I have tube driven "Weber Re-Vibe" which sounds awesome and the Reverb-O-Sonic does it nicely in effectsloop.

I feel like the cat is judging me for been at the forum instead of working....

I love your swirls, those are beautiful and unique.  I've seen your board, though, and wonder how do you manage to distinguish between different pedals without any kind of labeling.
So far it works for me probably mostly because I know what's in there, I can remember the functionality pretty well.
If I loose the plot one day I might have to stick labels on, so far it's going ok for me.
I understand though that for others it looks just like a non-sensical mess, and I take some slight satisfaction out of it... (cackles....)... ;)

Like those a lot !
Cheers John, did you discover some hidden beewb shapes in the swirls that helped that...?

I always have been into making things, building mechano kits and the like, hammering nails into tree huts etc.
My older brother brought a  beat up guitar home one day that a frined gave him as a thanks for help where my brother didn't want to accept payment.
He never took it up, I grabbed it and loved it straight away.
Bought a crappy electric guitar and amp in high school, got a few class mates together on a Monday, four nights practise, and on the following Saturday we played the first terrible but awesome fun gig on a party. Man did we think we were cool...  ;D
Anyway, as I like to make things works against the odds I built an overdrive, I think out of Craig Anderton's book (that was the days before the internet... yes they existed...!).
Later hacked together guitars out of chunks of wood and learned A LOT by trial and error and also to improvise when the official expensive tools wasn't at reach.
It feels good to be able to do things, even when sometimes you've got one that goes in the not so brilliant box. It's still a win, somewhat, better than not having tried I think.
Years later getting back into it, with the power of the net there's so much info and help out there, amazing what quantum leaps pedal building has made in the last years.... I only got back into pedals and electronics a few years ago, felt good to have pedals that sound equal or better than the few production ones I had, feels good to play your handmade guitar through it. So next step of temptation was building an amp to make the chain complete. The first time I fired the Weber kit amp up that I built first I immediately afterwards sold my Fender HRD...
By now on amp number 11...
Fun fun fun... 8)
