I have had this board for some time now, and finally got some time to build it.
I boxed it before I rocked it as usual :( and adjusted the trimpots, and all I got was nothing :) except when i was strumming really hard, like it was really gated.
Then i desoldered it from the box, audioprobed, desoldered some components, checked them and soldered them back in.
then I found out I had measured at the wrong transistor pin :'(
Then there was METAL :D

Lookin awesome man, nice job in and out! 8)
1: great looking build, cool graphics, love the Mesa pun in the whole build! 2: where did you get that ribbon cable? I'd be willing to pay $$ if you could send me a couple of ft.....

Love the Mesa style design, I did the decal for my chunk today. But you beat me to it!! ;) mines a 1590bb on the new board though, so It's a little different but still the Mesa vibe..
6 pots in that is a good ol squeeze! Well done on a neat one dude!

Thanks.
Paul, the ribbon cable is from Smallbear (http://www.smallbearelec.com/servlet/Detail?no=1045)
I only ordered a 2 ft, so I don't have much left.
Was the smallbear ribbon wire pretty easy to work with?

Thanks for the tip, I'll probably end up shopping there real soon anyway... Gots to get me some parts for a Weener! ;)

the ribbon cable is pretty easy to work with, it a little thin, but pretty flexible.
It's the first ribbon cable I have tested :)
i got my ribbon from mouser and i love it (9 cond)
