Sphinx - lion top or bottom?

[fuzzisokiguess]

The aesthetics on these are killer. The OG stuff with the crackle finishes / laser etch are sweet too, but these are so clean.

Follow-up question on the Sphinx, did my shoes come off in the crash?

[DRodriguez]

Thanks so much, these are actually laser engraved too believe it or not. It's been a long road working out how to get things to a level I am happy with. A lot of inspiration visually comes from TOMKAT and tattoo artists. Circuit wise I've gotten a lot of quality advice from smarter people than me like John at EAE, Brian at SSBS, Scott from mtl.asm, azx from Mask Audio Electronics has been a huge help with pcb inspiration, and countless others. Honestly, the most time consuming part of the process is the enclosures. I literally shave each pedal with a razor blade.

there is only one sphinx

I missed this but this guy is asking the right questions

Are you taking orders? I know you took your listings down on reverb but it seems I could still go through the checkout process on your website. Needing that Futility Drive or Bone Tosser to go with my Corazon.

[DRodriguez]

We are not at the moment. Just wrapping a cross country move up. I will wrap a run of the Futility Drive in about a month, and an unannounced hifi destruction sister pedal to it in a couple months maybe. I also have an unannounced project with a partner I am working on.

After that I have a plan for a delay, but that is a while's away.

[counttherings]

I'll keep my eyes peeled for sure!

[DRodriguez]

The prototype Bone Tosser is up for sale.
Final revision, the pedal will not be produced for a long while.
This will likely be the only engraved and filled version of the enclosure.
$140 shipped. Shoot me a message if you are interested

Just popping in to say I remember when you posted your first DIY pedal projects... and now look at you! Congrats on putting out designs that you are clearly inspired by and passionate about! Congrats on the move! I should have reached out to you while you were in Brooklyn but alas... life.

Keep up the great work brother!
