Title: Mint Chocholate Chip Drive
Post by: Roctopus on June 01, 2011, 04:10:27 PM
Here is the Mint Chocolate Chip Drive! This is a madbean Yellow Shark (BJF Honey Bee clone) I built for myself. I absolutely love this pedal!

I ended up having to use larger capacitors for C6 and C11 than I wanted and have since ordered smaller box version but figured I would post the guts pic anyway :)

What I like about your pedal in 100 words or less by Cdog...

Mint-choc is a winning flavour hands down...  and FWIW I personally endorse the use big-ass caps wherever possible... they add mojo quantifiable by the degree of relative oversizing and colour multiplied by mystical NOS qualities...

Nice job dude  8)

+1. Seriously man that color is straight up amazing. Is that a DIY job as well or did you get that from like PPP? I'm now convinced my next pedal is going to be mint green.

I actually got the enclosure painted and drilled at www.mammothelectronics.com. The actual color is "Seafoam" but it's close enough to Mint Green especially when you add those brown "Recess Peanut Butter Cup" knobs

Here are some links:
