This build came together really quickly. It appears to be lacking the 3rd voicing that exists in the original pedal (which I assume bypasses the voicings) however, that isn't a big deal since only one of the voicings really tickles my fancy.

There were a few time-consuming parts: finding transistors with the needed hfe (I ended up using bc109c and 2n2222a) and then drilling the case as their drill template was/is non-existent. I used Huntington Audio's ZIF breakout and my Peak DCA to speed it up.

With the case, a few minutes with a square and some calipers and I had it complete. As you can see it's a tight fit into a 125b but it does work quite well.

I still need to grab my paint pins and draw Namazu, the God of Earthquakes, onto the pedal.
