There's not nearly enough ships on pedals, I think.

Looks great!
I'll agree. I've been looking for a pedal to use this on for a while now.

Wow! That looks incredible.

Now that's just plain cool! I need to make one of these.
You should, I'm not sure what you would use one for, but it makes cool noises.

Awesome pedal Jimi. Love the art work of the ship.

When your not using the pedal you can lease it out to the city to store power in those 35V caps for emergency power. :0

All kidding aside, great build.

I took this thing apart more than my first build, fortunately it was just dumb mistakes I made.
Your earlier 'dumb mistakes' post inspired me to reflow one of my non-working builds sitting in my 'later' pile.  It didn't get fixed when I swapped out the chips and a few other things.  Of course reflowing did the trick.

Nice recovery, it came out great.
Fantastic man!

Have you tried different 2399 chips? Those are flaky.

Have been making one-off pedals mainly, modded tubescreamers and the like, (under the name 'BigNoise Amplification'), some guitar repairs and the like locally, to finance the hobby and to save the day when money was tight and too many ends to meet.
Now back to mainly doing my own thing for enjoyment, only building stuff for sale on request/order (which translates to rarely/once in a blue moon).
I think that describes us all.

Coolio!  8)
And you came out on top again, after all the debugging, that's the story!
I still gotta box mine up...

I couldn't think of anything witty to say. This is a straight forward sharkfin, I made a ton of bonehead mistakes on this one all the way done to not soldering a wire on the stomp which caused another hour of frustration and debugging.
#5983
Scurry! I think I will add the bias in the outside of my next one too.

I just bought this on eBay:  http://www.ebay.com/itm/170882678790?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Pretty good deal I thought.  We'll see how it goes!  I've never used waterslide decal paper before.
I used those guys once, it alright.

Just realized the sound clip link doesn't work from Tapatalk app on my phone.  Worked from the 'preview' on my laptop.  Do I need to do something different?
Nope, it( soundcloud)  just doesn't work in tapatalk.
