Faultline

Haven't found a decent led bezel for it yet, so the led wiring is still unfinished.  I actually added the board resistor, but I'm too used to doing it with the switch I guess.

Anyway, here be the latest build.

Very tidy... is it just me or is that one HUGE cap on your main board?!

Yeah that's a huge 1uf film cap.  Sonically similar to the tropical fish; not as bright as the Panasonics.
Interestingly, it's only rated at 250v.  It looks like a 600v job at least.  It's f'in huge though.  25x50mm!

Greta wiring! But, what does the topside look like?

The topside is pretty vanilla.  I've gotten into the idea of a stealth pedalboard as of late.  My "Mad Max" pedal phase has changed to a goth phase or something 

You can see it on the right of the pedalboard with the cream Fender knobs.  To its left is the Kokbox, which is still entertaining me no end. 


By the way, the Faultline is perhaps my favourite ever overdrive.  The Serendipity build lasted on my board until I plugged in the Faultline for a test drive.  It's now been permanently retired.

OMG, that is terrific! I love the understated vibe. It reminds me of Jack White's all copper pedalboard.

I'm trying to get mine done with all black, but etched faceplates eventually.

Thanks!  Yeah I love your etched copper nameplates.  I was going to stamp nameplates for these again, but... laziness is a killer

Should help you avoid radar detection.  

Good looking board!
