Well this was a straight forward and enjoyable build I did manage to solder a tube socket to the wrong side of the board. I was able to remove the tube socket so fortunately I didn't have to replace that. I ordered the replacement board, and being a good guy @vigilante398 gave me a few extra daughter boards. As you can see I used the new graphics available on the C2CE site, and I think they look fantastic. It sounds amazing, low gain gets a nice rich touch sensitive crunch, and at high gain the pedal sounds get that signature Soldano harmonic sound.

The one problem I have run in to is when I have the Black Eye before the King Nothing it sounds like it's picking up radio signals, but not the other way around.

I'm glad you mentioned this- I was not aware, and I'm almost ready to order enclosures for two c2ce pedals. If you go to c2ce on a mobile device, the link to "Drill Templates and Artwork Files" is not on the menu.

Anyway, this is about your build. It looks great. Is that the winked silver powder coat?

Oh weird, I'll take a look. I guess I never checked on mobile.

But agreed, build looks great!

I get these noises as well. I believe it’s mostly to do with the charge pumps. I’ve tried everything. Usually there’s a pedal before or afterwards I can engage that’s buffered that helps quite a bit with the noise. A klon buffer has helped some.
