Deflector reverb build

Sharing my deflector Reverb build. The inside looks like everybody else's inside it's pretty basic. No real modifications just a different resistor for the led.
On the artwork I kept thinking of the title of the pedal like it was a paperback sci-fi novel. Like the ones I used to read in junior high back in the early 80s. So I roughed up the edges of my image and then clear coated it. The whole pedal is done with lacquer and is a metallic blue to metallic black fade. Then a heavy gloss clear coat.
The one modification is the resistor for the "on" led. I increased it to the point that the bright white led barely comes on. I feel it fits the original picture quite well. I enlarged the image and positioned it so the "center" was aligned with the led. The led is fitted into a .187" hole that is counter sunk on the bottom to get it to press into with no holder. This way it becomespart of the image.
