I had some super low gain NPN MP38 Ge transistors and figured I'd throw them in the Cross Contaminator build. I was going to go with a Dia de Los Muertes theme initially to play into the EQD reissue but my daughter saw me looking for artwork and told me the pedal needed a dragon breathing fire... and that can only mean one thing. The only dragon worthy of being in a pedal. A dragon so powerful peasants run in fear...

TROGDOR!

I haven’t heard anyone talking about homestarrunner in years! Nice build.

I think they burninated all the peasants. I agree - cool build!

I am among my people. Folks who remember Stongbad. As soon as my daughter said a dragon blowing large flames I knew the only answer was Trogdor. I imagine she's gonna steal the pedal from me cause she loved the look of Trogdor with his strong arms and consummate vs.

Maybe I should make a Strong Sad themed Shallow Water....

Strongbad cracks me up! I thought those guys were hilarious.

Beautifully done. Homestar, Strong Bad and co have all long been lodged in my psyche/sense of humor and I have a related build sitting on my shelf only because there's a cosmetic issue I need to figure out before I can finally assemble and post it. In the meanwhile, hell yeah consummate Vs!

I think about this more frequently than I should. I continue to pronounce the t in mortgage 20 years later.

Awesome! I love that graphic.

I might be mistaking, but it looks like you doubled up on CLRs for your LED (breakout board and effect pcb).
Instead use a jumper or 0 ohm resistor in one of those positions.

I did and I would have but I had some foot switch breakout boards I had made and just hadn't used. Desoldering a 1 cent resistor wasn't worth the time or effort.
