LOVE the case and the simplicity. I imaging black and white is going to be a popular color scheme for this pedal. :)

You're a brave guy, not socketing the chip. I chickened out. What jacks did you use?

Looks really good! How'd you do the name plate?

Wow!  That's serious attention to detail.  You even powder coat the inside!

I love it! Where ever did you get those short caps? Those things are great! I just built my board today, and I only had really tall caps on hand!

I did test the chip in another build before soldering.  ;)

The jacks are these from the build doc.  http://www.mouser.com/Search/ProductDetail.aspx?R=NRJ4HFvirtualkey56810000virtualkey550-10284

Just used the items listed in the baby build doc.
