G'day to all, Matt here, with my latest. An afterlife compressor, built stock. The inner teenager came out for the decal choice  ;) Who doesn't like semi naked women playing the accordian  ;D The paint is my attempt at a burst, lime green into yellow, looks good in the flesh, but hard to tell in the pictures. I've never really used a compressor in my setups before but i'm liking what it's doing to my sound, probably won't be the last compressor i build. I think i've been missing out, anyhow here she is,

Very well executed! The Afterlife is a really nice pedal :)

Nice box!

Okay, my inner teenager came out too.

Seriously though, nice job in and out.

BOOTY!

ok now thats over with.. great build. Lovely inside and out. I am not a fan of those knobs but they look great on there. I guess I can never picture them on something. I may have to buy a few to put in the parts bin to try.

Wow, a lot to like here...Immaculately clean guts, two-tone burst on the outside, scantily clad female accordion player, even a matching yellow LED to boot.
Like SelfDestroyer, I usually don't like those knobs, but they work perfectly here. A really nice build!

If you don't mid me asking, where in the world did you find a retro style illustration of a woman playing an accordion?

Can't say I'd ever given it any thought before, but now that I have, I approve.

I had to google the lyrics reference, so here we have a hot chick singing exactly that:

 ;D Thanks dudes, agreed, it's a great sounding pedal. Hylandren, google images is your friend, type in a word and all sorts of random things appear, this one just seemed appropriate  ;)

I use them all the time, but a retro style pen and ink illustration of a semi-nude female accordion player seemed like a bit of a reach even for google images...  :D

Really? This seems like it would be right in google images wheelhouse to me.

Yeah, found that on the google search, but Cheryl Crow seemed to fit the theme that bit better, although she may be wearing to many clothes in this context.

Once you have your theme, google images can work miracles.
