They're old RCA knobs. I think they're made of mojo!

Here's a Rangemaster I built for a friend. He's kind of a perv, so he's calling it the Thighmaster. I think it fits in with the other names my pedals have had haha... Fur Burger, Camel Sutra, etc.

As a little bonus, since he's 100% Texan, I used a beautiful specimen of a mil spec Texas Instruments 2N1305/7332 germanium transistor. It even has gold plated leads. I told him not to pawn it.

Image

I really, really like this pedal. I am definitely building another for myself. It cops all sorts of classic 60's and 70's rock tones.

That's a clean looking build right there. How did you start making those pedals? I'm tempted to get some equipment and build some easy pedals.
Do you like listening to homemade music? Me too. Why don't you try one of mine?

I got bit by the DIY bug several years ago when Keith started BYOC. I was lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time and was a beta tester for his Fuzz Face kit. Ever since then, it's all been downhill. ;)

@Africa - I was just kidding. It looks awesome! My sarcastic dry wit doesn't come across online most of the time. What are then bends on it?
