Found a wine bottle cap fit just fine for the light shield if you use the alternative lamp listed in the BOM thats shorter.

Now that is nice. Univibes scare me too much to build one, so good on you :)

Stunning!  This is on my short list.  I see you went with 9v with no filtering.  How does it sound?

Awesome looking graphic and build. Did you use a tall 1590BB or regular size?

Its fine with a regulated power supply. However, when i use some distortion i start getting some mild background swoosh.  Fine on a clean channel.  I might try the filter board and see how much difference there is.

Thanks. I used a standard height BB and it all fit quite easily.

This and the Chunk Chunk are definitely on my list to do next month. What filter board are you referring too?

The filter board is an optional snap off bit of the pcb.
