It will. We've been sitting on these prototypes for about a year I'd say. Some of us are wanting to do a redesign before launching it, others think its cool as is.

my only qualm is the proximity of the 2 footswitches, but definitely wouldn't be a deal breaker.

That's mine too! In reality I haven't had a problem using with them in this configuration, but certainly it would be more ideal to have them spaced more. We may end up using a different enclosure for the production model to accommodate. We're really not sure yet.

I could see the footswitches being so close being a dealbreaker for some people. But daaaaaaamn that's a nice graphic.

Snagged one as soon as my last paycheck cleared, and just received notice that it shipped this morning. Super *stoked* to give it a go.
I'll post a review and hopefully some soundclips when it arrives.

And just so you know its packed up and READY to ship, but that said the snow is starting to come down heavily so who knows if USPS will show up for their daily pickup. People here flip out over littler dustings of snow.

Okay, it came in today.
Early report: absolutely awesome. It covers a lot of ground, ranging from late 60s psychedelia all the way through late 70s prog. The octave foot switch is spaced far enough apart for me (and I'm a US size 11 shoe). This thing is now my main fuzz, and it sounds fantastic.
Sound clips hopefully later today.
