It's kind of wild to me as it was apparently done by the owner over at CMATMods himself....and as I recall, they were at one time a fairly well-established/well-known name in the "early" boutique days, like back in the early-mid 2000s when it kinda started blowing up. And they made pretty good products, I had a Signa Drive for a while and liked it quite a bit.

I guess maybe they must've been having enclosures drilled/finished/etc elsewhere because their production stuff all always looked just fine (professional, if unspectacular) but I cannot wrap my head around what the idea was behind this one. I guess maybe there could conceivably be some weird scenario in which a particularly crowded enclosure would necessitate moving the board way down to clear the jacks....but there's a gut shot in the reverb post pictures and there's clearly plenty of space available AND could probably get a perfectly normal knob position/layout if you just flipped over the jacks or something...

One thing this pedal makes me think of, is a bleacher / stepped pedalboard; by moving all the necessary stuff to the bottom of the enclosure, you only got some little square area left after sliding the top part underneath a higher level part of the board. It would allow for a lot more pedals.

I mean, it surely was made like this for some reason.
