Surprisingly enough, this is my first tubescreamer pedal of any kind. Not sure why I never built one before, but this one is pretty great.
The board is from m-Kresol and is a fantastic layout. Thanks again!
Bonus point to anyone that recognizes the robot. :-)

Not sure I'm happy with the knobs, but they're all I had that matched and fit at the time. Probably switch them out next time I place an order.
Pretty pleased with how the etch turned out on this one. I had some struggles getting the transfer to work the last couple times, but tried some new paper that worked much, much better. :-)

Turned out great! Happy to see that someone built it and even more so that you like the sound (credit for that isn't mine at all, but I take it as a bonus).
GREAT looking etch. I am a big fan of geometric shapes around controls. The work around the bandwidth and clipping controls.
Also, 50+ completed and boxed builds in, and I still have yet to build a Tube Screamer.

Thanks... though, most of the etch mask/design was just lifted straight from m-Kresol's art/drill template, so I can't take credit for that.
I just changed the font on the labels and added robots.
Looks great and you've just reminded me I have one of these to build. God knows when I'll get to it.

Adding robots is always a good idea.

Thank you! You did a great job on the layout and art/drill template. It was very easy to get this together and up and running. I appreciate it!
Love this layout and that etch is superb!
Felix, How can we get one of these boards?
It looks fantastic.

Great etch! The whole thing looks fantastic. I know the robot from somewhere, it's itching at my brain and driving me crazy.

It from the disc art on Astro Creep 2000.

Ahhh, that is where I remember seeing it. What a great album!

I did a batch of 10 boards or so when I finished the layout and sold them once verified. Unfortunately, I don't have any left. If there's more interested I can have another batch made.

Thanks. I appreciate the nice feedback
Cool... what do all the dip switches do?

I know I would be in for a few boards. Any interest from other members on this amazing layout?

Sweet build!!
Looks awesome. Good job on the etch and makin a design that doesn't look cluttered, considering how many controls are on this.

They control whether the boost function is independent from the overall effect or not.
