Just finished wiring up this pedal last night and this thing sings! I did the elventy-bajillion diodes mod and used red LEDs, asymmetrical, BAT41s, and some 2n7000 mosfets. Don't quite know which combination I like yet, i'll definitely be spending loads of time tweaking and messing around with things. I've always wanted to make a Star Wars themed guitar pedal, so i thought why not slap a picture of Yoda on the front with some white LED eyes? This was my first time using waterslide decals, so it was a bit of a learning curve. The results aren't perfect when your dealing with the uneven surface that you get with the psychedelic background but I suppose it still looks pretty cool  :D. Anyways happy building and may the Force be with you!!!

i love it, my favorite parts are the paint job and the fact that you put a graphic on the bottom of the pedal (now that's being thorough) ;D.

dude WTF that swirling techinique is crazy! I really don't understand how he did that. It looks like paint and water? I'm gonna have to do some research on this. I really like the end result!
