What cracks you up? The cute logo or the price of it? I can't see spending that much for a pedal, but the case is nice.
I built one for RJ for about 40 bucks, but no dick logo. Lol

Yeah, no, the logo cracks me up. The price is quite attractive, only $15 for the bare PCB (which I just ordered), and only $179 for a complete pedal. Not bad at all, considering Nik wants $85 JUST for the enclosure (not faulting him here either--that's a nice, custom-cast thang, thar).

I agree about the enclosure, it is like the real thing, and looks like you could park a jeep on it without hurting it.
It is a cool pedal and the charge pump gives the pedal a big sound.
You should like it. If you can put in a few sip rails, where the diodes go, you can try different ones out. I think I used IN60's I think
They seemed to give me well rounded overdrive
Good luck with it.

Nice build with 4 dip switches to adjust for over the top tone, right!

Yeah Mark... A fun pedal... one side is like a clean boost and the otherside is a variant of the Marshall blues-breaker pedal ..The dip switch gives you varying degrees of cleanliness and distortion... you can play each side separate or both sides combined... I leave mine on my board set heavy on the boost side and light on the distortion side..

Here is one of the easiest pedals I have built and by far the craziest sounding... It's a fuzz pedal with infinite settings.. It's modeled after the Zvex Fuzz Factory... Bizarre crazy stuff
