Really any knob you want. Most folks like chicken head knobs for this type of pot.

You know, this gives me an idea. A WM with a clean blend...perfect for bass! It would be easy to do.
I got an idea,why don't you come up with one more pedal I need to build! That sounds awesome a wm with a blend. I would suggest also maybe a paramix too.

Just so you know, Tayda sells metal film resistors for $0.012 each, and you can pick the values.

Open Discussion / Resistor deal or bogus?
January 02, 2013, 03:46:10 AM
I found this on Ebay, (just upfront I don't know these people and am not affiliated with them)

http://www.ebay.com/itm/RESISTOR-VALUE-PACK-300-RESISTORS-FOR-EFFECTS-PEDAL-PROJECTS-DIY-WATT-/110856592098?pt=Guitar_Accessories&hash=item19cf915ae2

is this a good deal or crap? it looks like it may be the latter because it seems to be mostly R value resistors and less k and M value. Mods you may delete this if it violates anything. Thanks

Nice one dude, liking the artwork! How do you like the sound? I got one almost ready to box up, so I'm curious!

It sound great for guitar,not so much with bass. I have a few ideas for that though. I have ben playing the song Black for about 3 days now,it has kind of a weepy type of lightning strikes sound as well.

As in Black by Pearl Jam? Saw them 2 nights in a row last year, had something to do with work, they rocked!! You a bass player? Maybe you have some tips on effects I can build for the bass player in my band? He's also one of my best mates and I'd like to give  him a pedal he'll really love. Thanks in advance!

Yes I am,I like the bluesbreaker I just built for distortion,the cave dweller,a wah pedal,chorus is good,I'm going to build an auto wah also. Trying to get that old 70's funk wah sound. Also a paramix from gpcb is in the works. Still my favorite compressor is an optical from BYOC,but I'm sure there are others around.

You know what's funny, I started this hobby because I couldn't find an affordable compressor that I liked, now I'm 5 pedals in and I can't stop! I may have a problem.
#8592
That's what I need to do then, build a test box and relax a bit. :D
#8593
That looks really good! I really dig the hidden led look. Makes the surface look clean.
