Yep. They're 60-70 pounds easy. From that "made in a barn" Kustom era.
Grabbed a matched quad of JJ EL34s and 2 pairs of JJ 6L6s for $97 out the door.

New stickers are here! These will allow me to use them for future new pedal releases and keep track of their serials too.

I have a Tri-Vibe clone: the effects bakery whatever roll (yellow). It sounds great - similar to a ldr based vibe, but not quite. It does it's own thing, and well!

Yes I know, your thread was literally the reason I ordered the PCB! Or more accurately, someone posted about it elsewhere and I liked the demos a lot, but I didn't know what it was based on before your post.

I thought that was you who did that, but I wasn't sure. I can't keep things straight some days.

Is that the ST42-Lite? I'm going to have to give one of those a try.

Yup! You won’t regret it. I wish I had dug deeper a year ago when I almost bought miniware’s tweezers - I dug only enough to learn they were crap and to see the $350 alternatives that I couldn’t justify buying. 5 more minutes and I would have found out about these. I’ve already used these more since they showed up than I’ve used other measurement tools in weeks because of how easy they are to use.
I loved the Vox Flat 4 Booster so much & this one came along on Gumtree ( Craigs List equivalent) so I grabbed it.
These are 9v Boss style power but run at 200 DC volts!
It had way too much Gain for me with the stock Vox 12AX7 so I grabbed a NOS RCA 12AV7!
I'm not crazy on their choice of Colour but it sounds Great!!!:
The Vox title was green also so I used a Gold paint pen!

Doesn't the AV7 operate at a lower voltage (150ish) and higher current?
I'd keep an eye on the boost converter in the pedal and make sure it's not overheating.
vigilante398 confirmed that is not an issue with all the 12A_ 7 tubes being used.
First time posting in this thread—I love how much joy this hobby has brought me thus far!
I just put in an order for my first Dead End FX boards: Amnesia x2 (clone of ss/bs No Memory delay) and Zuperbee x1 (clone of ss/bs Buzzz fuzz). I'm a bit nervous about these builds only because I've heard the DEFX boards and build docs are not as straightforward as PedalPCB boards. We'll see how it goes though. I've completed a number of successful complex PCB, vero, and perf boards up to this point with only a few that I can't sort out.
In any case, both of these pedals sound absolutely insane, and I'm really looking forward to making some weird noises with them!

Hahaha, no doubt! I saw another user here had managed to fit the Amnesia in a 1590BB2 (and was even so kind as to share a Tayda drill template!), so I'm going to give that a shot. As for the Zuperbee, I'm going to take a look at that board when it arrives. It's hard to imagine that it's really so big as to require a 1590BBS, so I only ordered another 1590BB2 for it. At this point, I'm well versed in disappointment and surprise when it comes to making pedals, so it is what it is.

Moonn order came yesterday, took about 2 weeks from ordering. Not bad! Also a freebie 14x32 which is apparently a rangemaster with switchable germanium/silicon and blendable input cap, which is actually quite interesting for me. The plan was to maybe put Octomix into the Multiface (with a JFET in it maybe?) in one box and see how that works, but I might have to build them first before ordering the enclosure just to check if it's a good idea or not.

Been slowly selling off dad's late 70-80s CB radio setup, so this is more of an outgoing mailbox thing. Buyer wanted to see the state of the valves in this Zetagi BV130 Linear amp, so thought to share this with you guys as well, since, well... You all are a bunch of valve nerds. And because obsolete electronics is much more fun to look at than the miniscule meh of today.
