Title: #VFEFRIDAY SPS Distortion 3
Post by: jjjimi84 on August 06, 2021, 11:15:47 AM
Second to last one! When the SPS series was announced I was all giddy and ordered up pcbs for four of my favorite VFE pedals. You have already seen the white horse and the Yodeler, today is the Distortion 3!

This pedal is a little under the radar monster box, it does do distortion ish stuff but I find it is a great boost and overdrive. This was airbrushed in metallic brown, yeah thats a thing! Then I painted the dog on there and all kinds of detail that did not show up super well......

One thing to note is these SPS series are supposed to be in a 1590b2 not a 1590n1 (125B) so the sps board does not mount flush to the edge of the enclosure with out an extra washer to bridge that gap.

Very cool, did you solder the board or did you buy a soldered one?
