Title: Sparkplug Build.
Post by: casssax on March 01, 2014, 04:09:30 PM
Here is my Sparkplug build. I spent 1/2 hour trying to get the pictures correct but they keep coming out sideways. If you right click and open in a new browser tab you can see them in the correct orientation.

I used an extra nut on the DC jack (on the outside) so I could get the space I needed for the two switches.

Just curious what do people normally do so that the input and output jacks don't stick out so far. Am I just buying the wrong ones?

I really like the sound of this pedal. Mostly I keep the presence and saturations switches on and don't do much with the cut switch. I haven't played around with the trimpots yet.

I should have used knobs that have the index on top. I would be easier to see where it's set. I had to get very skinny knobs because of the switches in between.

Do the jacks have washers on?

Pretty decent :)
