Welcome fellow bassist, we're glad you're here. Have any pictures of your creations?

Thanks!

Yeah, here are a few of the most recent builds:

A pair of PedalPCB Zappers, and the orange one is a PedalPCB Amentum. Last one is a PedalPCB Leprechaun, but I ran out of photos I can post so no gut shot.

Hey folks,

I just thought I would stop in and say hello. I've been building pedals as a regular hobby for the past 8 months or so. About 9 years ago I did my first build, which was on vero. I've done a few vero projects since I started last year, but have been doing 99% PCBs now since I discovered people were actually selling PCB clones. Not sure which rock I was hiding under before then. I've completed 8 full pedals and have probably 10 others in various stages of being built, waiting for components and time.

I play bass and a little guitar (cowboy chords). I've been playing bass off and on for the past 20+ years, though it has been at least 5-6 years since I've been in a band, so most of my time has been spent as a bedroom bassist. I tend to play just about every day, even if it's noodling on the couch while watching reruns of Law and Order while the family is sleeping.

I have no real experience with electronics. The closest it comes is when I did facilities management for a restaurant and fixing animatronic monkeys suddenly became part of my job. I have a mechanical mind that can take things apart and put them back together, but the theory of it all tends to be far beyond my aptitude. I am trying to learn, though. Who knows, in a decade or so I might be able to actually sound like I know what I'm talking about.

I have spent a good amount of time on the PedalPCB forum proving my ignorance and noticed some familiar names here. Since they all seemed like good folks I figured I might as well pop in here as well. I've not built any MB boards yet but I will probably grab each of the bass pedals once the Edgelord comes in.

So yeah. Hello!

Wow, that is some gorgeous work. Just couldn't resist piling on the well deserved praise.
