Nuther Pharmacist (Dr Robert) Build

[Cybercow]

I was intrigued by the the Dr Robert (PedalPCB "Pharmacist") and thought to build one out. Found a nice copy of the original artwork on the web and went for that as the enclosure paint job. (Professionally painted and drilled by AmplifyFun in Portland.)
I find it a really nice distortion box. Having been used by the Beatles on their "Revolver" album, this circuit is a plus!

That came out nice. Every time I see one of these I want to build it. I have put it in my cart and taken it out probably 5 different times.

Do it. I built one as a gift. I'll be ordering another in my next PPCB cart for myself.
In a world full of FF and TB variants, this one really stands out.
It would be a really cool parallel build with something more sputtery as well.

I really love love his circuit. Very unique. Great job! I'll be building another for myself.
Did you plot the drill pattern yourself or use the tayda pattern posted here some months ago?
I ask because I used the one posted here and it plotted the breakout boards directly above the pcb. See my build photo.
I had to order long header pins but I actually like the tidiness of it.

That looks excellent, inside and out. Where'd you get those ribbons?

Yep, this one:

Thanks Robert. I got the ribbon cable from StompBoxParts. They have a nice selection.

Thanks! I plotted the drills myself on a blank 1590BB Photoshop template provided by AmplifyFun, then submitted the filled-in template (with drill points/sizes and artwork) back to them.

Nice work! I am currently building this and I am also using the original artwork I found online for my water decal.

Thanks. Be sure to post the build report when you get there.
