This arrived quite a while ago but I wanted to share. The generous MattG offered Timbre Man PCBs in the Timbre Man thread ( thread here ) and I took him up on it. So I just wanted to say thanks not only for his generosity, but his patience as I haven't a lot of time to dedicate to building pedals lately.
When I do finally build it I hope I can do it justice!

Shite! Daier screw my knob order... 
I asked for all colors (red, blue, green, yellow, black, white, cream and transparent) in equal quantities (with a bit more transparents than the others), and they just sent black, white, blue, red and yellow. No green, or cream, or transparent knobs. Damn!
My review was not good, I must say.
I guess I'll need to use either black, blue or white for this one. I wanted to try the cream and transparent ones, but it can't be.
Well, whatever. Let's keep going.

You guys are incredibly generous. @Barry sent some LM308 that I never thought I'd possess.
And some ultra fancy, sleek, luxurious, high-performance gorva enclosures. Way outside my paygrade.
Since I specialize in ugly pedals with messy wiring, my next build will look hilarious in these Ferrari bodies.

Did you contact them? They’re usually pretty good at sorting stuff out.Shite! Daier screw my knob order...

Not yet... I'm sure they'll contact me when they see my review.
I like them, but I'm a bit pissed that it took a few days to ship the order, yet, they screw it up. I thought at least they were paying attention.

You can always talk to them first. You generally get a sales rep who you can talk to offline.Not yet... I'm sure they'll contact me when they see my review.

I just got my first commercial pedal in 20 years. Finally a wah for me. The Cry Baby Akira Takasaki. Made for high gain, auto return, with no stupid foot switch, and a low sweep that avoids the shrill top end of most wahs. Step on it it’s on, you take your foot off it’s off. I’m in love

Some new envirotex arrived this afternoon. I went to do a pour two days ago and realised my last batch had started to yellow. I haven't used it in over a year.

I have no idea who akira takasaki is but that sounds like an ideal wah pedal.View attachment 54818

Right!?!? The punch in feature is some thing I’ve been looking for forever. No more foot switches! The only drawback is no cocked wah unless you hold it.

I had to have a look inside. It’s got a red Fasel that they didn’t advertise. And the fuzz section is running a pair of through hole mspa18.

Are you in to the fuzz that's in there?
Betty Wont

Yeah, it seems to be all good. You can’t use it independently so I don’t know what it sounds like on its own but it’s got lots of gain and it drives the wah really well. Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a Hyperion type thing. It really cuts through and accentuates my already very high gain signal. No hiss or noise even when cranked.
