Fat Sandwich internal controls on the outside

Post by actual »

So, I've got a Fat Sandwich on my board atm, and had almost forgotten about it's internal controls until yesterday. They have quite an effect on the overall sound, and I'd like to be able to use them without having to open the entire pedal. Would it be possible to just desolder the three pots, solder in some wire between the pots and pcb and then mount them in holes on the front panel? Maybe get some different pots?

Yeah, I'd go for a panel mount part myself.
