This is the oxygen amp from Quantum FX. In this version, Felix takes masochism to a whole new level. This is the last of the three I have finished. I got this one only 2 years ago.

Pedal building is like the opposite of sex.  All the fun stuff happens before you get in the box.

This made my fingers hurt. The contortion is strong with this one.

What the flying heck!?! I do not know how anyone works inside a 1590lb but kudos to you sir.

Seems like a build for low profile electrolytics.  With a monster 200V thrown in just for fun 8)
The only known cure in the world for GAS is death.  That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

I get a nervous tik just looking at that.  Well played Jimi but methinks you have much more patience that I ever will.  Stuffage is not my strong suit.

How loud is too loud?  What?

I don't like 1590LBs because I can't fit my usual 27 knobs and switches on them.

Great work Jimi! You should do a whole board of these with an OSHA hazard label theme!

Ha! That's awesome . I think you could get a few knobs more on it.

nice work. good to see someone is building these!
And yes, low profile electros would have made things easier. I do remember that there is a circuit to increase voltage on the board, so there are actually some capacitors with higher voltage...
I build pedals to hide my lousy playing.
