Son of Ben Pre-Amp

[Jazzwolf]

Just finished this really fun and quick build. Still working on my soldering skills (likely will do the input jack ground again as that is nasty) but it came out pretty clean and worked first try . I used Tayda Electronics UV printing service and build a design playing off of where Benson Amps is located. I am calling it the "Portland Drive".

PDX APPROVES!

Nice. My knockoff Davies knobs also have the screw sticking out.

Also, ben means son in Hebrew so I can't not read this as Son of Son. If I build this pedal I'm gonna call it Sanford and Son, of course.

The benson is what started my pedal addiction. Good choice on the name. Mr. benson would approve… maybe.

I think mine are knock offs too as I got them from Tayda LOL.

One part I really enjoy is the rabbit trails I take to get my name for my DIY take on these pedals. Definitely post your build when you get it done, I would love to see Sanford and Son pedal art.

Nice build, great pedal! Yah, I used some authentic Davie's for the first time on my Pro-10 build. If you have to wonder, then they're probably knock offs. The real ones are pricey but big diff in quality. Not saying I would buy them again but I was impressed.
