A really fun build with really rewarding sonic results ...I used a "w" taper 20k pot on the tone and the warmth it added to the unit was noticeable to all....the 25k b is very bitey..

Dood, that is killer.

Where did you get those knobs?  I like that look.
I dig the case too.  Where did that come from?

thanks

The enclosure is a Hammond 1445N1602 ,basically an aluminium extrusion with a removable top and end-caps that I had powdercoated . They are nice cos you can assemble the whole unit on the lid ,as you can see on the one pic I did a (slightly untidy) dry run on a raw lid. The knobs I bought from a place here in South Africa called RS components..they have dealers all over the world ,the part # is 4664995

Just to add a quick one... the 3DPDTnine- pin footswitch on the boost side can easily be subbed by a six-pin 2DPDT  It wont affect the bypass at all .Hope it helps ..where I live we have to bring the 9,s in from the USA ...aah life in Africa ..pic with diagram included !
