yeah nice finish what 'color' is that

Thanks Donner. That means alot coming from you The base color is blue metallic from Duplicolor. Then I did a prism topcoat. Can't remember the brand offhand. I'll have to go out to the garage and check.

Jacks are on top, did one with silicon and one with germanium.

Ah very cool -- the prismatic stuff is big fun tho I havent seen it in a while --- I have this curse that as soon as I find a unique paint I really dig --- they discontinue it

very cool jf -- germ/sili sound comparison please

These first examples are jawdropping gorgeous! You fellas are certainly no slouches in
FX department! I submit my spartan (stealth, not!) build. I built it with the furnished
xistors and LEDs. I have another PC that I will try my recently acquired Ge NPN trannies
and I'll go through some tasty Ge diodes to get the MeauxJo hattnin'. I think I owe it to
myself to audition 5mm LEDs in this puppy too. They made a big difference in my hand
chewed CJOD knock-off. It definitely elevated that pedal from an ignominious TS clone
(and the Burr-Brown OP amp fer sure!) to a chewy & invitingly sexier OD.







I'm gonna go play it for a while....

Thanks to Bjorn, JFromel, NOC3 & Donner for getting like minded Fuzzaholix
united with such a tasty project!!
Check your stockings this December, I
do have some schmoozing power with the jolly old soul.

Love those old red knobs !!!

Dakaware knobs are so sexy. I'm pathetically under their spell.

I found these Mint Green ones for the Sustainer controls on my Fernandez &
put a dial plate under that yellowed "stovepipe" Volume control.

I haven't seriously investigated but I dont believe 5mm LEDs sound different from 3mm leds. Color may make a difference because of changes in voltage but the size is mostly a hardware-type change.
