Year of the Rat

This is the second Rat build I've done but the first in a mini.  It's actually for the same guy I built one for previously.  This was tighter than expected as I had to wire the clipper switching on a piece of vero and mount it to the underside of the PCB.  Not a whole lot of vertical space with everything packed in there.

The enclosure has quite a few dents and impressions in it.  I don't know what the hell went on with this one, but that's how it was when I got it.  It was my last black mini box so my buddy said it was cool to use it.

As far as the sound, it still sounds like a Rat.

Stellar build, Dave. Just brilliant. And I know you don't care for the Rat circuit, so it's even more impressive to see you do it such justice.

Well, they are 1/8 watt more so than cute. But I guess I could see cute.

Great build... I love the knobs. Where do you get those (and the silver ones you often use)? When I got metal knobs from musikding once, they were freaky expensive.
How did you do the labeling?

That is so tasteful and beautiful. You make it look effortless. Which means that was a lot of work.

 :o That certainly is a clean etch. The cleanest rat I've ever seen...
