This is a fairly high parts count build so I was putting it off despite totally wanting to share the finished product. I wanted to keep the purple from the original and come up with something appropriately metal for the graphics. UV printing and machining was done by @amplifyfun . When I first fired it up in my test rig it was a squealing whistling nightmare on the red/blue channels with the volume or gain even moderately raise. I did some searching and it seemed like this was a pretty common problem both on this forum as well as on reddit and effectslayouts. One suggestion without anyone saying whether or not it worked was to try a shielded input wire. I didn't have any shielded wire laying around so I hacked apart a cheap patch cable that I had. I can't say for certain if it was the shielded wire or if getting it properly mounted in an enclosure with a solid ground connection did the trick, but all of the problems are now gone. I can give it full volume/gain on all channels with no squealing and for what it is this pedal is pretty damn quiet.
