Another ABDLX with dual MN3005's from Treeslayer (thanks Layton!) nice pedal, the modulation is footswitchable and I found the best method to do this was to cut power to the modulation circuit by breaking the connection at the 100k/100k voltage divider.

Etched image is taken from a linocut by Tasmanian artist Andrew Donohoe, neat stuff, look it up!

Pretty cool :) MN3005's always add a mojo factor, as does the chunky CC resistor going to the modulation stomp ;) pretty good detective work on that!

Have you got a link to the original image? Because until I saw your note at the bottom I thought it was a Grind Customs inspired finish!

That's a 3PRR with a charge pump to run the Aquaboy at 15v.  The modulation switch is the one with the big mojo carbon comp CLR. It giveth extra toanz for the modulates.  Or actually, it just looks cool.
