Hi Folks,
Here's an NPN Superbee I completed recently (except for forgetting I still need to glue in the LED). OC139s from the fine folks at Pedalhacker.

That labeling looks perfect.  How did you do it?

It's just a regular waterslide decal, but I did get a new packet of Papilio decal paper, we have a better printer now, and I managed to line up the decal for a change. So, Harmonic Convergence?  :D

That looks really good. How does it sound?

Pedal building is like the opposite of sex.  All the fun stuff happens before you get in the box.

It sounds pretty good, very smooth. I like these Vox Tonebender variants and this is a good one. I reduced the size of the output cap a little to reduce the low end a bit. It doesn't have quite as much gradual cleanup curve with the guitar volume as the Jack Deville version but there's still a good range of light distortion up to thick fuzz, it's just kind of bunched up at the end of the guitar volume pot rotation. Worth a build-up if you like Tonebenders.
