I like box #2 or #4 the most, I voted 4 because I like a bit of space.. But I understand that most of your pedal's will be probably bought by pedal-freaks that have to squeeze it on a small space of pedal-board real estate..

Even though I voted for box 4 (most compact and less chance of stomping the toggles) box 1 is the way to go.

While I value footprint this is a premo pedal and it deserves to be treated as such - cramming too many knobs and toggles in a small space almost detracts from the pedal

It's still a reasonable size, and it would look great - the size would actually make me treasure it more :)

More ppl should use this pedal - I love my older version!

Go Ryan!!

Changed my vote to the 4th one. If he said it's a pleasurable build, then let it commence.

Also, where'd this smiley come from? :snax: :snax: :snax: :snax:

I need a :gnar: smiley ASAP.

Changed my vote to #4 as well. That layout is very snazzy - seems like the best of both worlds as far as smaller size without being cramped.

Also, is it a bit taller than the other boxes?

I'll take mine in green, purple, or blue flake please :animal:

I just had a thought...with the unfinished metal and the pointer-style knobs..doesn't #1 look a little Fairfield Circuitry-esque?
That one's..kinda growing on me.. :)*

2, 3, and especially 4 (with the toggles between the knobs) are too cluttered for me...I really dig #1
It's probably a nightmare for Ryan to cram all of those things into the tiny boxes.

Plus, bigger = more room for art (and maybe a bigger pcb, which = more super secret messages)

I totally agree. The art is one of the best parts of Dr. Scientist stuff.

I chose the 125B. I think that, while it is a little beefier, it's not that bad. I have a 3leaf Mutron prototype in a similar box (Hammond 1590N1) and unless you're putting the box next to an MXR style box, you don't notice the size difference.

Layout wise, I like the knob and switches on that one better, giving you more room on the bottom for artwork (who does all of it, by the way?).

I'm on the edge of my seat too!

I really like the 125B... I've been pondering it and talking to it for the last few days now and it's good.. it's very good. I'm wondering if I couldn't stuff the RRRv2 into it...

Thanks again for all the input, guys, very much appreciated!
