All done! Except for mounting (Fender HRD cabinet), and needs faceplace. But sounds great, so Merry Christmas to me!

We should have a rule here that no one can post pictures of anything that tidy :twisted: You can brag about good tone all you want.

Nicely done!

Thanks, Phil! I started in 2010, and I think I may be getting the hang of this.

Indeed! Very nice, tidy work. You've developed quite an original style of layout that is very cool.

Nice, and compact. I'm also digging the way you fixed those radials through the board. Good work! Some clips maybe?

Nice work, sounds great. Whoever has to work on it 20 years from now is gonna love you for those radial caps so intelligently installed.
