yeah,i would buy zvex if they weren't so damn expensive and hard to come by (at least here).
i spent like 35- 40 euros on this and about 5 hours. i put in different trannys that sound
better to me which costed an extra 5 euros.
also tagboard is fairly inexpensive,and is really easy to populate with
the only drawback being that a larger housing is needed.
but thats not a problem if you like medium or big pedals. :omg:
heres a really good collection of tagboard layouts if anyone is interested:

Thats what I really wanted to know , sorry for my poor english, I live in Sweden ;-)

No worries. I hope my answer makes sense!

Also, I finished this pedal today:

It's a Tonebender Mk2 with a toggle switch to select two different output caps... stock and one 10 times larger for more bass!

I love the smell of solder in the morning.

I was playing weezer say it ain't so and I can do the clean intro and then the fuzzed chorus parts with just the volume knob. amazing.

Eniacmike, those two settings have a very different sound. I think an in between setting is necesarry for a really perfect pedal. Like 8 for cap. With a 3 pos switch. Sounds good though nice work.

And a tip of the hat to the man with the oc44 rangemaster. I love oc44 in treble boosters and tonebenders. All tone benders. The fuzz face oc44' s are cool too but not in omg this is totally diff sound kinda way :p :p
