Beautiful work!

Where can I find more info on the LED mod? I've built up the Sabrotone vero too, and I find that the circuit clips a little to easily.

That guy has a cool style. Thanks for the link.

That's a sick graphic. Who is the artist (if you know, and if it was you--extra props)?

Practical, well laid out--and it looks great. I have a feeling you keep a tidy work space, just by looking at that. 

That is a great source of cheese. 

One of my first builds too. (I think it was my third.) I love that thing! A seriously badass effect.

Truly special build and etch. 

Never been to church, no plans to go, so i can't answer your question mate, but i do have one for you. There seems to be of late a fair few posts that involve religion. Is there some connection with the church and pedal building? Serious question. 

Why should it matter? 

These forums appear to have folks of all different stripes actively participating. One of the best things about this forum especially is the level of respect and willingness to become friends with people of different backgrounds. I'm not religious, and I found the question to be interesting.

Looks righteous from here. 

No need to sweat what perfection actually amounts to. The medium and method lends itself to a rather pleasing graininess anyway (just like rock and roll).

Actually, this is by far one of my favorites of yours. Love the green tint, design, execution, everything. 

Nice. You are a building machine! 

Wouldn't mind hearing what it does to bass/guitar when clicked on and off. Always been curious. (Not like I don't have a big enough pile of unfinished PCBs already. )

Nice to see such a creative use of the Cave Dwellers. Really interesting and cool project.

That's righteous. Looks like it could be a control panel for a WWII era steel bomb-shelter door. Such a cool gritty aesthetic.

The wicked switch works great, there's no audible pop or anything. Ettore and LaceSensor made it possible in this thread (thanks much!):

The vero works except (unless it is updated after today's date) the infx and outfx wires are reversed.

I don't know if there is any tone suck. My test rig doesn't have a true bypass switch. I don't hear anything untoward, although I would never profess to having golden ears either.

I still need to measure the current draw--as I was asked to do in the other thread, but I left my multi-meter on (doh) and need to get new batteries for it.

I'm going to keep using the WS for the foreseeable future, as I really like the clickless way of switching effects in and out seamlessly. It feels very natural and is much less expensive than most of the current relay solution: although I've seen some cheap ones.

Never played a Rat before this one either. There are some seriously cool classic sounds in that box, it's got a huge range of tones.

Anyway, thanks for the kind words folks. This place could quite possibly be the nicest community on the Web.

So clever and so beautiful!
