The question is, do you value it? Do you care enough to own a guitar owned by jimmy hendrix's uncle? It's really subjective imho. :-) great question for a debate.

Is it possible to use a C1M pot in the smoothie build instead of the 500K reverse pot? If so, what will the difference be if any?
It would work in a pinch. It offers more resistance so it will result in i think a quicker response when you turn the knob to increase or decrease the phasing.

My thought on the matter is generally to build individual pedals. I honestly would never want to be locked down to just the effects I'd built into the unit, and would rather try new pedals out every so often. You can do that with a multi, but it means breaking out the soldering iron and potentially going through debugging again. But that's my thoughts.

What happens if you don't end up liking or using one or both multis? They're harder to sell, and definitely become obsolete much easier.

What I've done is use a Pedaltrain Nano and put 4-6 pedals on it. Goes in a nice little gig bag, easy to use and grab wherever I go. You could do a Mini board, and then you'll have it all, and have something you could switch out if you needed to.

Build an effects loop into the multi. I built a 4 multi and wanted to put an effects loop in but was too lazy

Laziness in the planning and build stage always makes for endless amounts of regret later on.  :(
While I'll agree with you, it wasn't laziness in planning, it's just that I didn't want to add to the work I already had ahead of me. That being said, my multi is a very basic overdrive chorus phaser delay, good for a grab and go only. I still have a regular pedal board that I swap out regularly. Also you guys are talking like if you put a multi together, you are stuck forever....or you can just build another one or just more pedals. :-p there are pros and cons, but we do this because it's there right? See, now I'm playing devils advocate....I say build it because you can, not because you need to.....

That looks great. Very clean all the way around.

Nicely done, you're well on your way now! The ge diodes that are missing are clipping diodes, that's what makes the distortion. Those are going to be important as well as the two resistors. Contact mammoth and let them know parts were missing.

Your 3PDT footswitch is wired incorrectly.  You need to rotate that 90 degrees and rewire accordingly.
nice catch, I can't believe I missed that.
