Super Stevie build: STRATODRIVE

The Gator

Well-known member
This is a pedalpcb build of the Super Stevie board.
I really like this circuit. low parts count and has a really great sound with single coils pick ups. Sounds great with a gretsch as well!
The finish is automotive paint. medium quasar metallic blue and metallic black racing stripes. (which makes it sound faster...lol) the labels are oracal vinyl and the logo is water slide decal. I created most of it Silhouette Studio. the boost is created by switching the 3k3 R6 resistor to a 1k5 resistor which gives the second op amp stage more amplification. I used the power i/o board from pedalpcb. I like it, but I wish the in and out jacks were offset back a bit. I ended up using bonded washers to take up some of the excessive threads of the jacks that protrude out. Not sure I would paint and finish another build like this. Starting to like the idea of filmless waterslide and a laser printer.

here are some rough videos:

Great build and playing man! How did you cut the square hole for the DC jack for the Power Module?
 
thank you.
Actually I did not cut a square hole. I just did it like MXR does now. I drilled a large round hole and the DC jack just butts up against the inside of the enclosure. I really wanted to come up with a different way. I like the power i/o boards, but I do not like the available components to solder on them. unless there are some I do not know about. I still have a lot to learn about pedal building.
