Thanx !! Yeah, it's not easy to make it clean. There's wires all around the board...must be hard to put it in a 1590b. I don't like to suffer !!| :D

Agreed, great job if it was your first! I don't think I see many that are that good several in.

Nice all the way around. Wish my wiring was that tidy.
GREAT first etch! My first one didn't turn out anywhere near that well.

Hi ! Depends on what you mean by too much...I find it very versatile, very subtle sweetness to kind of medium high gain. It's ok for hard rock but not heavy riffs. I lke this sound a lot !!
