Behold. The HAND OF VECNA!
After multiple struggles with sourcing and stupidity I FINALLY completed this very sweet pedal.
Can't say enough good things about the circuit, the board, and Nathan's support.
This is the 3rd tube pedal I've built and it's got a lot of great things going for it.
Beauty shot

- Build
- Very clear and straightforward build
- Very well documented BOM with URL to sources for the High Voltage parts you probably don't have on hand
- Great detailed build document that makes sure you do things in the right order.
- It's a very well designed board. not tight squeezes, not awkward placement of hot voltage regulators
- It's a 250v tube pedal that fits in a 125B!!!
- with plenty of space for cool lighting
- Nathan even got the placement of the backlight LED right!
- Sound
- Plenty of volume, plenty of gain
- Super pristine clarity (whatever that means, but yeah, the pedal made me say it so it must be true.
- The tone stack is really nice
- you can see in the first photo that I have the treble and bass down, this is because it has plenty of each of these to spare. I know that lots of Bassists really dig Sushi Box pedals. Im not a bassist, but the bass is there if you need it.
- Usability
- the Particle Accelerator super responsive to changes in the guitar volume control. i.e. dialing down the volume pot cleans up the signal really well. I have some solid state pedals that do this, but not nearly as well as this.
- Also, I used the pre-drilled and routed enclosure Nathan makes on his CNC and the board just drops in like butter...
