This is my build of the AionFX Calliope aka Catalinbread karma suture aka Harmonic percolator. This is a super cool fuzz with some very cool sounds. I built the germanium version. For the art on this pedal I used some “gold” $100 bills from Amazon and cut them up and glued them to the enclosure with spray adhesive. I did a layer of gold sparkle spray paint under the dollar bills to give them a shiny backdrop. This was also my first attempt at epoxy. Never again haha. My goal was to have a nice even epoxy layer over all sides of the pedal… I had no idea how difficult it would be to get it to even look OK. So after applying epoxy in stages on each side I had to go back and sand down all the spots that were uneven and polish it back up to clear. Huge pain in the ass but I really wanted this to work. It turned out ok but not the desired look. The pedal sounds awesome but I didn’t quite get where I was trying to go with the epoxy. Oh well.
