It's a different way of thinking of compression too. On my original amp you can dime the master and with the compressor full up (full COUNTER clockwise) you can pretty much talk over the output. Back the compressor off a tad though and the amp starts to get seriously loud real quick. It...

Holy mudder o' gad that's a great looking enclosure.

Damn this is fun to live vacariously thru someone else's t-shooting thread!!!

I absolutely torched the smd pads on a J201 on the Median and ended up getting another board. I don't usually have issues but sometimes the damage is too much as it was in my case. Of course this doesn't help you at all but felt good to get it off my chest.

Thinking this isn't my normal cup of tea till I heard the demo. Sounds like a load of fun.

I wish I did but then again not building as much as I used to. I DO keep copious notes and photos of repairs that I do, both to document original conditions of equipment and give me a backout strategy. The shop has a very much open door policy so if I get side tracked in any way it's good to...

This is the coolest build I've seen in ages. It has a bit of an 80's/90's Dean Markley vibe going too and I think the hand lettered aspect looks WAY cooler than a faceplate. Well played!

Most versatile for me is the LectricFX Flintlock (A/DA). Crazy flexible without being fiddly. I'm a big fan of anything BF-2 based and my current fave is the recently completed HF-2. It's the best I have for very subtle stuff.

Aion Blue Shift is very cool. I've owned both an original CE-1 and a JC-120 and very much regret selling both. My goto, ironically, is the Line6 MM4. It does a useable version of the CE-1, Dimension D, and a DynoTronics Tri-Stereo. Nobody is going to believe you're using the real thing but...

Board is done with the mod parts. Needs calibration yet but I'll be damned if this thing works as an HF. It definitely sounds different than the stock 3102 and I really like the fact that the bottom end seems untouched. Very subtle, this one is. We won't talk about what I paid for shipping...

I bought in and picked up one from UTSource. I honestly don't expect it to be legit but threw all caution and common sense to the wind. I'm finally getting around to building up the BF-2 board and since my Cabintech chip came up as a dud I figured why not. I can't prove it didn't ship as a...

I built mine to the TS-25 spec and as I have a real TS-25 with a WGS spreaker I can attest that the pedal sounds bang on. I haven't had a chance to box mine up yet but here's a clip of the real amp with the gain about 1/3 of the way up with the boost on. Recorded thru the phone so take the...

I believe it is. It's raised and quite opaque.

Yes and it looks much better in person. Not convinced these knobs are keepers but will do for now.

Hugo questioned me on that (since technically white isn't a color). Not sure how this shook out but I really like it. Not my most imaginative pedal art but does the trick and the metalflake purple looks just stoopid nice.

I miss building guitars and amps. But I'm not broke all the time. Hmmm, there may be a correlation...

Don't hand me no lines and keep your hands to yourself...

That would be so awesome.

I do recall playing an original back when it was new (sorry but the wrinkles are showing now...) and other than the big form factor I was much more enamoured with a then recently purchased CE-1 to take much notice. Damn I wish I still had that pedal. Superb build and very much digging the...

I wanted to build the HR on your board but found out the hard way that the chips are pretty much unobtainium at this point.
