Bought this board in an order a billion years ago, but when I populated the circuit it didn't suit my needs as much as I'd hoped (wanted more of an active EQ, in the end). Sounds great, but is finding a new home with a friend.

The enclosure was a bit of a nightmare of my own making. Bought it pre-drilled, which was a luxury, but wasn't happy with the initial attempt at simple lettering and line art. Ended up scrubbing it back too much and scuffing the finish (wish I had a photo of the scratches and little ghost of a bad robot drawing I couldn't get rid of).

I wanted to experiment with a new set of acrylic markers and did test swatches all over it, which I kind of liked, so I pushed if forward, wiped and smudged it then scraped the finish with a dip pen nib for extra character.

Added some small swatches on the sides to bring it all together a bit.

The markers worked very well, so I can see using these for hand-drawn stuff in the future.
