EAE μ Blaster

Wanted to try this one as I hadn't done some SMD work in a while, and this looked pretty straightforward for an hybrid SMD/Through-hole build.

From the build docs:
The μ (or Mu) Blaster is a powerful clean boost named for its cascading stages of JFET mu amps. It serves a single purpose: to slam the input of an amplifier. It features a high voltage ∼27V power supply for extra headroom, and a unique Depth control for contouring the low frequency response of the boosted signal.
It's really nice, and useful for tone shaping with the bass contour and a low pass-filter. The "Boost" control adds a bit of saturation, but is quite subtle and more pronounced when the Depth is at higher settings.
I tried it going in my Fairfield Modèle B, and it was a really nice crunch bordering on fuzz territory, quite fun!
Having fun with gradients on the last couple of UV prints I did, I'm very happy with how they turn out. This one looks good, but the gloss smooth out the "graininess" of the color in a nice way. Didn't use gloss here because I was going with a distressed font look.

Well done! You are really knocking it out of the park with the artwork.

There was a space themed board game I used to play with my cousin in the late 80's/early 90's called Solar Quest and the artwork you chose reminds me of that.
