Fresh batch of Heavy Stones going out to Pro Guitar Shop.
These have the new slide switches on them instead of the toggle which I much prefer, slide is so much nicer!

Hey! New user here, figured it would be a good place here to introduce myself with a first post. So here are my recently finished projects.

• the mighty "Onetwo" bass fuzz with a extended green russian muff, wooly mammoth and some and some more tweaks and things.

Image


• ye olde Dynacomp clone with jangle box mod:

Image


• and the dramatic rehouse of my copilot fx broadcast. Gave it three different speeds to switch around in between and a footswitch to toggle between LFO and expressionpedal, also a tap output to sync to other pedals.

Image

So: Hello everybody!

First off, welcome to ilf!

Secondly those all look awesome! Really pro quality, especially the graphics.

What do you use to get them looking so decent?

Thank you for the warm welcome! :!!!:

I use cheap spray cans to paint them white, then I design the grafics in Illustrator and print them on white self adhesive foil in a good copy shop with decent print quality. After applying the print I cover it all in a thick layer of duplicolor clear, that's all. Most of my pedals went through different versions of design work and got makeovers quite often. Anyway, this style makes me really happy and I think I found my visual language in pedal designs by now. :thumb:

They are all really nice, but that Broadcast in particular looks fantastic.

I dig the aesthetics of this one. The different knob layout really works for me.
