My builds on a two week paternal leave.

As usual i built it using cheap components like the plastic footswitch.

Both are great sounding pedal. The Blues Breaker boosts treble
and it enhances the sound of a bland sounding neck pickups of my ibanez gio.  


This one is the easiest build... not easy to fix the oscillation though.

Cut it large, and smash it into place with a hammer.

Congrats.

What enclosure did you use - on the pedals, not on the baby :)

I would really like to get ahold of those enclosures. Where'd you get them?

So, uh, did you use Francisco Pena's layouts for all three? Is that smile we see the expression of someone thinking about what may someday be all theirs?

Welcome to daddyland - the place where the phrase "sleeping in" evokes puzzled stares.  You'll never want to go back, and you'll never be able to watch pictures on the news of starving children with flies buzzing around them quite the same anymore.

You know, people extol the virtues of "true bypass" a lot, but I have to say that sometimes you get wonderful things from leaking a lot of your signal :wink:  (Now get your damn head out of the gutter, Mark!)

Thanks guys!!

I build the enclosures with angular aluminum sheets.
Aluminum is very easy to work with and I'm also
amazed at how much DIY work I can finished
when I'm at my in-laws' ... I wonder why? :)

I just hope the little guy grows up liking the guitar
so i can build him lots of effects :)
