Obviously not an original idea, but thanks to others that inspired me with similar builds, namely the "Marriage Keeper." I was going for knob / switch symmetry using a 1590XX enclosure, but the board geometries didn't make it easy. The trade-off was to twist the inside a little. I'm slowly learning the labeling/art thing with some struggles, this one is a clear waterslide that mostly adhered ok.
I installed a trim pot in place of the cab sim's volume control and adjusted that to match the headphone amp volume. A 3PDT toggle switch bypasses the cab sim and also switches 9V+ to the board. This may be contributing to some "popping" when the cab sim is switched on. I would appreciate it if anyone has any tips for reducing this popping, but it looks like there is a pull-down resistor on the condor input, and possibly an additional power supply filter capacitor was added to the ROG circuit on the board? The Condor cab sim definitely adds a little something good to the sound, so it will likely stay switched on when I'm using it.
