Title: Uproar
Post by: keysandguitars on November 29, 2011, 03:02:50 AM
I've been busy over the weekend trying to wrap up a few builds and get 'em stuck to my board. This pedal will get a lot of use for the harder rock stuff. I did the super duper mid booster mod and find all the switches to bring some nice diversity to the pedal.

The finish is Dormant Orange from Columbia Coatings. I'm not a huge fan of orange, but I really love this finish.

Nice mate!  Top notch finish as usual!  Is it the camera angle or does the orange color get darker towards the top of the pedal compared to the bottom?  Looks like you got a really flat finish too, well done.

Thanks, Paul. The color difference is due to crappy lighting and no idea how to properly work a camera I borrowed from work.

The finish is super smooth, I hot flocked the clear and have done so on a few with really good results. I hold my breath every time I do knowing it has its downsides.

Holy smokes, that's hot.
Excellent hardware. Where'd the knobs bezel come from?

Wow, thanks guys, I'm flattered. I'm just trying to hang with you guys on build quality. Knobs and bezel came from Smallbear, I really like ordering from him. He's a day or two slower than some, but my order is perfect every time.

The font can be found here: http://www.dafont.com/08-underground.font (http://www.dafont.com/08-underground.font)
I spend way too long searching for the right font. I guess it's paying off.
