Finally got this one finished. I really love this pedal, It's a lot of fun. The enclosure is polished metal with a no film decal. I used right angle PCB mount pots. I wasn't sure from the build docs that that would work. It seemed like a trap, but it was fine.

Very cool. Anything with skeletons on it his super badass, right? I'm a sucker for them. I have mostly sugar skulls, Anyway, that's badass, how do you like it, and what do you use it for? I have one to build, and I scored the previous model built recently as well.

Agreed, I know they are cheesy, but I can't help myself.

I really like this pedal. It might get some use in my band, but even if not, it's a lot of fun to noodle around on (guitar BTW, haven't tried it on bass). I built a Naughty Fish that is in that category. Having some weird pedals for practicing has led me to some cool parts that have ended up in the band.

Really great job inside and out. That no film decal paper is worth looking into.

This looks fantastic! I'm working on my build and it's good to see the right angle pots work. Great job inside and out.

Also...I see what you did there "seemed like a trap", well done.

Love it! The swirly pot labels are great, and the tone vent is a must :) Very fun pedal when dialed in. Great job!

Thanks everyone!

I would like to add, for those currently building, mine seems to have too much gain to get a good blend with the clean signal. I have the gain trimmer set to it's minimum. I'm planning to bump the trimmer up to a 20k to see if that helps or try a larger value at R62.
