All the easy work is done,,, no to the decorating..... I have to tell you,, after spending two days putting these minies together im not sure which is tougher these or the amp kits... They both have their challenges... All I can say is hats off to who ever invented the magnifying glass!! Without my lighted desk one and my 60x lighted eye loupe I couldn't have done it... They all work and sound great!!! Perhaps I should leave them as is...... And use as a memory enhancement tool.... Nope,,, didn't want that effect on.......lol!! So I got the blues breaker. Yellow OD, orange phaser, delay, and the big one is the reverb.... I wish their had the waw available.... My goal is to be gigging with just the instruments and gear that I have built.... cheers!!ImageImage

Nice job. I’ve gigged with just the stuff I built. It’s a great feeling, especially when someone asks you about your gear. Good luck, looks like you’re well on your way.

Dude, you are all in. Love it!

Warning: if you get into painting and designing decals, it's basically a whole separate hobby that will take up as much time as building. Recommended. (At least for a while.)

Nice work. Looks like you've got your lock washers on the outside though. Lock washers are meant to go on the inside. Flat washers on the outside (footswitches and jacks).

Lookin' good—you work fast! A clear coat on top is advisable, if you haven't done it already. And a few rounds of wet sanding before you paint, too. Keep up the good work!

The custom touch, always a favorite.

Nice work! "Stomp Here" is a nice touch 8)

That pedal reminds me of one of my long ago builds, great minds think alike!

Cheers and happy building!
