Forgot to mention Mr. Madbean, this pedal rocks. Nails the Klon tone (I own one), but also has the killer mods. If
I could only keep one pedal, I'd keep the Sunking II. If anyone is contemplating this build, I highly recommend all the mods, the buffer thing depends on your setup. Oh, the LED I threw in there is a high intensity white, sorta like looking at the sun when it's on 8)

Okay I fixed the wiring diagram and uploaded it.

Looking at your build again, it looks like you might have drilled the spot for the LED where the extra little mounting hole on the PCB is located instead of the LED location. On the drill diagram the LED is shown by the outline with the x-hairs in the middle. If I'm wrong, my apologies...kinda hard to tell.

Ya, when you print the drill sheet and you're (I'm) looking for the LED to drill, what catches your attention is the little round circle about the size of an LED. Not the tiny little crosshair that prints rather faintly. It got me twice. If it happens again I won't admit it. ::)

For a build with so much stuff, that enclosure looks impressively tidy. Nice job.

Thank you, It looked better the first time I put it in the box, but I had some trouble shooting to do... :o


Are all your mods in the Docs or did you do more?

Yes, just as per the build doc's, and took every suggestion to use sockets. Although I haven't tried
substituting values yet. The thing sounds killer just the way it is.

What, no effects loop?

Hmmm.... i think i don't get it...., would you put an effect loop in a TubeScreamer? :o


Is joke. Haha... No?

So here is some shots for someone considering the "all the options" build. The in and output jacks were moved
to the outside pot centers to make room for the switching. I meant to have a bit more room between the jacks and pots but somehow layed it out wrong, also layed out the switches a little off too. I crowded the 3PDT to leave some extra room above. I really didn't think this might take the place of my Klon, but I may have to do a better enclosure for this build. The options are killer.


The problems I ran into with this build were, the drilling template shows a small circle in the general vicinity of the LED, It's not the LED. It was close enough to bend the leads of the LED to work. That happened with the Kinslayer II, also. The build DOC for this mod doesn't show wiring the input sleeve to the board. This needs to be done. :o I thought there was a reason it wasn't shown on this mod when the others clearly show it.

That looks awesome. One of these days I'll have to start working on graphics.

Sound Clip!

I got them at either Pine Cone Lumber, in Sunnyvale Ca. or Orchard Supply in like 1982. I bought them to make key tags. So this makes two times I've used them in 32 years.

 8)Hey, mine was a salvaged enclosure too. That's what gave me the idea. Rat Rod is a cool theme, I probably should have gone that route, but I ended up with D.O.G. Distortion, Overdrive, Gain...and Dog being an animal other than Rat,
went with Bark as Vol., Bite as Distortion, Yelp as High Cut, Howl as the bass sweep. What board is that?
Cool Build.

Thankyou, I was just trying to tidy up my work. I get the rest of my parts for the 7 little micro bugger
boards of yours, tomorrow. Well except for the enclosures, still trying to figure out graphics... but I knew
I needed some more practice... I would just like to be able to execute one build, to your standards, then,
I can go back to playing guitar. :D

Whatever it is you're trying to win, I concede.  That is fantastic.

Concede all you want, you've already left the bar at some unfathomable height. Us mere mortals
can only look up in wonder.
