This one is for the beginners out there. This is my second pedal build, not counting my testing rig I did in February. It's all about small victories right? So this was my first non-kit build and I think it turned out alright. It was a bit tight squeezing it in a 1590b, but squeeze I did.
I was looking for a reverb with tone control and found it in GrindCustom's Tenebrion. I prefer a darker verb so this fit the bill perfectly. It's all stock and sounds fantastic, exactly what I was looking for.
Learned a couple lessons with this one. I found that I prefer drilling holes before painting. I completely chewed up the paint in some spots when drilling. Also, my bit walked a little on one of the holes so I had to "open it up" some. Some of the black faded on the waterslide decal, but I decided to roll with it.
Here's to taking it one build at a time.

Gnarly. The graphics remind me of old 1980s D&D sourcebooks :)
I've got a Tenebrion board plus verb module I need to button up... strictly speaking, we should paint after drilling... just that a lot of us receive the enclosures painted already. 8)Gnarly. The graphics remind me of old 1980s D'n'D sourcebooks.

Doh. Thanks for head's up. Just changed it to Public.
What a great pedal. 2 words.....drill press.once I used one,oh my lord.its all I use,I drive to my dads ever time I want to drill an enclosure.its so worth it. Harbor freight has got one for about 60.00 imma pickup soon enough.
Excellent work once again. Is that a resonator in the demo?
Hey Jon,
No, it's a Gretsch 6118T Jr. Seen here with my Guytron amp. I'm absolutely in love with this combination. The Guytron is one of the best amps I've ever laid ears on, by far. Check 'em out (http://www.guytron.com).

I actually know him. His real name is Eric. He works at Guitar-Emporium here in Louisville, at least he did until they closed up shop.

Great build and video demo. Really got a good feeling for the pedal, now I gotta populate mine immediately!
