Thanks davent. It almost made me blind trying to stuff everything

@davent is correct... Scratchy is supposed to happen

Killer job! I've got one of these boards lying around as well buy I need to build up some confidence first.

Thanks folks. @wgc, I printed the graphics on waterslide decal stock with an inkjet. I cleared it using a rattle can in the backyard.

Had this little kit lying around for some time & finally decided to torture my vision with this tiny build.  It sounds killer - even has the scratchy pot effect when adjusting the boost level.  Cheers

Finally got my weener to make some proper sound.  The details...an assortment of Vox & Dunlop parts, madbean board, and a Fender jewel lamp to tell me when it's on.  Cheers...

Update: found them here.... http://www.pedalpartsandkits.com/dpdt/#cc-m-product-9930193657

Wow.... Impressive shrink job!

Yes! That's exactly I'm looking for. Thanks for the tip!

Thanks for the props! If I do another one of these, I'm going to try incorporating clipping diode switching with a small external toggle. Have you ever seen a breakout board for this purpose?

Thanks for the kudo's!!  I should have clarified - this is the 3rd pedal that I've built but the first where everything didn't come in a kit.  My biggest fear was ordering the wrong values of capacitor & only figuring that out after it didn't work.

The OA126's are pretty sweet.  They measured 0.67 FV so they have a very clean boost sort of sound but awesome overall.  I just tried some OA1160's in there as well (~0.39 FV).  They sound incredible.  Earlier breakup and a very amp-like overdriven tones.  Super brittle though - I broke 2 of them just trying to bend the leads. Good tip on the D9E's, I'll look for some of those to try as well!

Thanks guys.  I also so keep the clipping diodes in case. I'm running the OA126's and they sound awesome. Any suggestions for others to try?

Thanks for the props!  I have a Madbean Wah next on my hit list!

Exterior (eroded some of the ink on the decals but I know better for next time)!
