So here is a Neptune Delay and a decimator noise gate both stock with lots of cool pictures.

Yep I do, I only get to build 3 days a week, so I work on several things at once and as it happens I finish them all about the same time. I have one more to box, painting didn't turn out as expected, surprise! I do have a question, my warp button slows things down, is that how it's supposed to work? I bought 2 momentary switches for 2 different projects and I can't remember which is which.

Thank you,it's a really clean sounding delay, and yep I had the wrong momentary switch on there. Fixed it sounds much better.

Wow! Those are bad ass! I love the graphics on both but the Neptune is just killer inside and out.

Wow, that Neptune sounds awesome, great builds jimilee!

I am about to build a Decimator G-String. I don't really need it, but sometimes I feel like it could be beneficial to my sound considering that I use a lot of stacked pedals that are transistor or Ge transistor based so there can be hiss, it all depends of the mood the germanium gods are in on a particular day  :D

How do you like your Decimator man? Maybe you could record a short clip of it as well? Thanks!

Excellent work, Jimi -- that Neptune is particularly excellent.

Nice builds, man!  I was gonna ask about the Decimator, too.  Where'd you get that layout?

Someone here etched it for me, it was from the layouts / projects library.

Thank you. The Decimator is pretty transparent, I'll get you a clip. Funny story, when I started this, I had a bunch of boss pedals and terrible noise, but now there all customs and no noise. I have a few dirt pedals to build, so we'll see what happens.

Thanks Jon, working on a better, more tidy wiring scheme.
