Title: Sabertooth - my 3rd build
Post by: glowsheep on October 22, 2011, 07:45:29 PM
This pedal is my third build and the second pedal in which I've etched my own pcb using the madbean layout. This is going to be a birthday present for my nephew who turns 15 at the end of this month, he plays bass so I figure he'd really like what this will do. I tried it on guitar, and it wasn't bad but I prefer my DIY fuzz factory. It does sound really nice with bass though.
The graffic is a picture of him and the name Krusty is in reference to a child nickname of his, when he was a toddler he always had dried food around his mouth so they called him krusty. The paint was a happy accident - I primered, used a yellow enamel but decided to use some orange but spray from a distance. It ended giving it an almost sunburst look.

Great job! Definitely the gift for a bass player, without the super steep price tag  :)
