I'll stick it here too...
Black Lagoon
First of a pair of multi-effects pedals for a friend of mine. This one is the delay and modulation pedal containing IMO the three best analogue circuits of their respective types. Madbean's Aquaboy delay and Pork Barrel Chorus (Aquapuss & CE-2 clones) and Josh's Rub-a-dub reverb.
Needless to say this was a bit of an epic build and not one I'm in a hurry to repeat!

Stellar work, John. Looks wonderful. I really like how you fit the board on the inside.
The way the inside of this is laid out is laid out is inspiring. Somehow the Aquaboy has a lower parts count than I imagined--I'm excited for the new one to come out! Doesn't seem much worse than the Pork Barrel, biasing aside.
I love that gutshot... soooo clean.
Kudos dude, what's coming up for the second multi? Really could be a killer combo!
Ah the Sonic Death Monkey... Fingers crossed you'll only have to wait another day to see that one ;)
Great build js! Pretty impressive with the layout and tidy wiring....
Nice work..... well packed in there :)
I'd like to withdraw my entry at this time! There is no way I can compete with that! That looks incredibly clean,you've outdone yourself yet again!
Wow! Great job all around. I love the artwork and the guts look amazing!!! Do you guys use all solid core wire for your builds? I've never used the stuff myself but if that's what your using here I may give it a try...
Great build mate, ingenuity at it's best, layering those boards. I reckon that's $50 right there ;D

Mostly solid core and occasionally ribbon. The best stuff out there is pre-bonded multi-strand (all the benefits of solid without the downsides), but we simply can't find any here for love nor money. The holy grail is pre-bonded ribbon.

I get my cabling from Barry at Guitar PCB
ITs quite expensive but its just so nice to use... prebonded multistrand FTW.
Yeah, I got some to try with my last order. But I don't want to use it incase it's as good as I suspect it is...
Looking through my glasses I am not sure if I see this right: The board on top is held in place only by the solid wires you are using ?
This is a very tidy build. I usually do not use solid wire because the (maybe too cheap) insulation melts off when heated to long.
Nope there are some deathstars... See the build thread here: http://www.madbeanpedals.com/forum/index.php?topic=8212.0
on page 2. It's very secure :) The other boards are on sticky backed foam tape. Nothing is moving in there.
