Cool.  I'd like to do something like that to my Professor tweed pedal just for the heck of it.

Very nice marty! Those knobs complement the tweed well.
I see you had to recess a little form the inside. I have to do this as well usually.
I like the fact that you used metal washers for the switches as well.
Do you have a source for those or did they come with the switches?

The classic 30 Emu is the right choice for that box!

If anyone is interested in the tweed covered boxes please email me.

That thing looks so COOL MM!
I should've used something like that for my ROG Professor Tweed build... Nice.
I wonder if there is a way that you could make a metal plate with the effect's name on it,
In like a fender type script and attach it to the front.??....like the old tweed amps!
Like that Basicaudio enclosure!!  8)

There is pedal made with the metal plate and logo as fender etc did. I forget the name now. They used decals over the tweed for the controls as well. Still can't think of the name...

Hey Mark, if you're ofering ... a kind of etched "Coke Logo" with "Classic 35" on it would be great !!
.... say 3cm high and 6cm across with a "line" around the outside :D

I would offer some nice things in exchange  :icon_wink:

Those knobs are great, they are the Cream fulltone type which smallbear doesn't have any more, I'm down to
my last 4/5 of them !  :icon_sad:

If you want etched brass nameplates, I used this company for my picture framing - http://wilburns.co.uk/

They do 10 plates engraved for £2.99 + p&p.
