Love that klon! If you don't mind asking, why did you used a pcb instead of stripboard?

Because it's complicated as all get-out. I can build them on veroboard and have done so in the past, but for $10 of PCB it cuts the build down by about 2 hours and also is more compact in the case.

i actually didn't realized how crowded that pcb is! that's a complicated overdrive!

Who's this for if you don't mind me asking Mike? I sent one of my friends your way after he tried out the dual drive I got form Noirie. Looked similar to something he was asking for...
Looks pretty cool like

Yep, it's for your buddy. Thanks for recommending me to him.
I think Benecol did amazing work on this one, it looks so slick. I really like the Boss and Pointer knobs too.

That just has to be the hottest form a TS-808 can take. Too bad I really can not justify a new MBM pedal just now. Not even to myself.

Yeah, normally I have one board on it's side on the base of the case behind the footswitches, but both the OCD and the TS-808 boards are too tall for that by like one or two strips annoyingly.
When I came to try to fit it all in I was like "ARGH SHITE FUCK BUGGERY", but then I figured it out. The bottom board is affixed to the "top" of the pedal via adhesive foam pads, and the one that appears to be floating was affixed to the lid or "base" of the pedal before tightening screws. It's tight as hell for sure, but the solid-core wire and adhesive pads should keep everything from moving about unduly.
If I have to make another I might see if we can do something with the DC and Audio Jack placement so I can lie the other board on top of the pots instead.

Hey Mike, what PCB did you use for that klon klone?

One from madbean.

Mike,
What is the difference between the Big Muff and the Rams head Big Muff?

PNP transistors and about 6 components.

Fender Blender for crowleyisamuff and SFT for Reece. I'm pretty happy with how the wiring came out on these because they're both pretty complex.

Loving that artwark
I'm starting to wonder how good can it possibly get?
Great work Mike, inside and out

Well all the artwork credit goes to Benecol for the design and crowley himself for the original concept, I just drill, paint, apply decals and clearcoat.
I'm pretty happy with the way the wiring is going these days though, using those little bits of heatshrink to group cables definitely makes things tidier!
