However if you want a Saltbooster also that'll be in the larger of the two cases I use, and for £20 extra (a standalone Saltbooster is £30).
Would you want the Saltbooster pre or post gain (Gain Boost or Volume/Solo Boost)? I could add a toggle to select this for £5.
Let me know what you think.
I have one of these Saltbreaker/Saltbooster pedals with the order toggle switch. I absolutely love mine. So versatile. It replaced my Boss OD-20 as my main Overdrive. The toggle switch is totally worth it.

Mike had been out of town on vacation so he may take a bit now.

Very busy at the moment and a few orders already on my list so I'm quoting 6-8weeks to be safe, but that's a very conservative estimate. Most pedals will be done before that, and I never take payment until I am done with the build and ready to ship.

So my DLS just died.
It went all dying battery on me and then stopped making sound completely.
If I play with the saltbooster on full before it (as I was soing when it died) I'll get the dying battery sounds but otherwise nothing.

Check all the transistors are happily in their sockets?

Send it back to me - sorry mate - maybe one of the transistors has popped? Johno is having issues with his also, I think I got a bad batch of 2n5457s.

Mike, looking at your site what is the pedal at the bottom of the homepage, blue sparkle, controls grouped into delay/modulation?

it's an echo base.

Yeah, a delay with modulated repeats. It's a digital delay with an analoguey voicing. I have one on my board, it's not cheap at £100 but I love mine.

How much for an FKR clone?

With all the switches or just the extra knob? You're best to order from him if you want the whole deal.

Two Custom Dual True Bypass Loopers for a fellow called Mark who previously bought a Saltshaker from me.
The simple one is has a Bypass switch on the right with an A/B select switch between the two loops on the left.
The more complex one has the same setup but the bypass path actually goes through a Saltbooster stage as controlled by the knob. The middle footswitch and LED indicate that the Tuner mute is active.
The output of one is offset from the input of the other so they can be placed close enough together to switch the loops on the complex one while bypassing/engaging the simple one.

Woohoo switches and lights everywhere! I love that the only person who'd have any clue what those boxes do is the person who ordered them. And you obvs.
