If I sent you my SB, could you mod it to PLUS spec for me? For moneez?
Of course mate, in fact, I'll do you one better if you want. If you send me the SB, I'll make you a new case for it with the tone control and boost side by side from scratch if you want? Save you having the control on the side or something. That way you could get a coloured one like you always wanted?
I could do that for you for like £15-£20?
I don't wanna drop too much coin really, thanks though dude. Do you reckon you fit a tone control in there, on the top corner maybe? I'll just throw a little dial on it, it won't look too weird.

It's not the dialspace, it's the space within the box. I could do one sideways, but you couldn't fit a pot next to the other one facing upwards too since it's centralised.
This is your booster:
I could definitely fit one in top left, which would be on the input side, or top right.
Is that what you meant? I would do that gratis.

Yeah, that's where I meant, where the little circles are. The dials thing was only because of looks, I realised it needs space inside.. and checked it out on that very picture a minute ago!
I won't have you doing it for free, I'll stick you a tenner for postage, time, and parts if nothing else.

Actually, looking at it, it might be possible to drill a hole for it to fit top corner like you said.

Yeah, on the main face side would be preferable to avoid it getting knocked, but on the side above either jack would be doable.

It's your call. I could drill two new holes and have them side by side actually with the original hole as an eyesore, or just have the boost central and the tone up and to the left or up and to the right of it. Either way I'll be happy to sort it. I'll redo a lot of the wiring to tidy that stuff up for you too, I've got a lot better since those early days.

The top left corner (when the pedal is face up) would be great, it won't mess up the SHORTSCALE wording that way. To save you bother, I'm happy to drill the hole for you before I send it out, if you lemme know the diameter.
You're a gent, Livesley.

7mm for a pot. Careful to drill it so that the placement of the pot won't be impaired by the screw thread section of the box for the lid, you can use the existing pot as a size guide for where to centre the hole.
Cheers!

Caribic Blue baby, for Hurb's fuzz. CUSTOM ORDER.
NO FIBUS NO.
Actually I would, but I'm sure you can fix yours. If I was to build a Tubescreamer it would be one with all the "fixes" to the circuit.

Never done a phaser.
I'd have to do some investigation - I can't imagine it will be simple to get hold of the requisite chips, leave it with me.

I could do both of those individually no sweat.
Combined? I have a case large enough to do it if you really mean it. Will be fun to have 10 knobs and two footswitches on the front.
