Very nicely done. I built a monster three tier pedalboard (36" X 18" base, 30" X 12" first riser, and 30" X 6" second riser), great for playing at home, not so much for taking anywhere else. Bought a couple of Gator boards for gigging, but might follow your lead and build me up a couple of these as well.

Living Sacrifice, there's a blast from my high school past. In the same vein (and genre, more or less), I recently rediscovered Bride's "Snakes in the Playground". Great album. Stuff since then, though, not so much.

I loaded mine up with 3 mm waterclear LEDs for D1 - D3, and 1N914 for D4 and 5. Gives it a different enough sound from the other TS clones I've built to stand out, and I am really starting to prefer the LED/lift combination in most of new builds. Did the same in a high gain King of Klones, and it really sounded nice.

General Questions / Low Rider Muted Octave Down - Help?
January 11, 2012, 01:53:25 PM
All right, so I'm through the 12 builds of Christmas (12 pedals in 12 days, my wife thinks I need help), and I'm into the debugging stage. Got everything working the way it should, except for my Low Rider.
Clean signal and Octave up work as expected, but both octave down sound very muted (like you rolled the tone control all the way down on your guitar), and don't come through like they should (works well to thicken up single coils, but that's not really what I was going for, nor is it the function of the pedal).
Anyway, working my way through the path to try and find the problem, but wondering if anyone else has had this problem and what might be the source? Given the number of components to trace, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thumbs up to madbean, great boards and great sounding projects. LOVE the Double Flush. Sold three of my old trem pedals the day after I finished it.

Global Annoucements / Re: February Releases - give your input!

Will order the top three for sure, my votes for the other three would be
Deadringer (I don't need another dirtbox, but when has need ever factored into the equation)
Harbinger (Haven't built a vibe yet)
Rump Roast (Can never have enough boosters)
I too wouldn't mind seeing the mysterious reverb project everyone seems to mention, my DIY board (which is rapidly becoming my number 1 board) is a little naked without it.
