Working on a heavily modified octave fuzz right now. Will have clean blend and all sorts of cool stuff on hand.

huh? but that's the idea of a feedback looper right? I built one and I switched it on/off via the footswitch...

If the mini toggle is set to off, it is still a true bypass looper.

oooohhh.. ok. i get it now, thanks (please excuse me, it's 22:30 in my timezone and i had a long day :D)!
I wanted to build a switch into my feedback to choose if the loop is bypassed or active in non-feedback-mode.
but meh.. i'm too lazy... :lol:

Narce! I take it you used a laser printer then? or did you seal it before wetting?

jupp, laser printer (could be better - but it is lying on the floor and i stand...), then wet on the hammered finish and clear coated it twice after a bit of drying . Came out really nice. i wet sanded a bit off to get it more imperfect (the uneven hammered paint helps).
