Very cool pedal. Been busy and away from ILF recently and this is what I miss. Need to scrounge up some music funds because this pedal needs to find its way to me. :)

Lately I've been into a lot of companies shirts. Dunno why. Fairfield shirts are awesome looking. These are as well.

haha yeah let's! *pushes Brad into the tat shop first* Seriously though, I would totally get a D&D themed tattoo, one with a guy holding a torch going down some rocky stairs into a dark passage of the unknown... I live for that kinda thing!

22 left still, Jon! I think I'll keep it around ILF only for another week, I'd really like for every ILFer that's interested at all to have an opportunity to get one, love to keep it in the family. I'm cool with a deposit to save a place in line too, that works for me, especially now that I've got all the parts and boards and boxes sorted, would love to see one go to you.

haha that's awesome, Ian! Our resident real Dr. Scientist, too cool! You're Chooser #9, sir. Epic Pedal Time.. I'm thinking new YouTube channel!

These are a navy shirt with white logo.. our first logo shirt.. all our other shirts were very crazy and out there, which I love bigtime, but I love logo shirts of the stuff I'm into so we figured this was maybe a good way to go this time around. We'll get weird again for the 2015 shirt! *ha*

OK guys, I'm gonna put the box pic in the first post and then I'll make lists of what's available and not available for everybody's choosings.

So far, Arjan has chosen box #10.

Thanks again everybody!

No. Nowhere tropical. That avatar pic is actually my wife and I up on the ferry to Madeline Island (Northern WI on Lake Superior) last summer. Back when it was actually warm... and not snowy... and warm. I miss those days. Just been busy with life and getting through the holidays with 3 kids reduces my new gear funds for awhile. I should be able to get this money together soon and as soon as I have anything I will send it your way as a downpayment. :) Thanks!

Agreed on both points.

EQD and Smallsound/Bigsound also sport some cool tee shirt designs.

Those look absolutely fantastic :drool:

Ryan, would it be possible to have mine set up such that the expression pedal sweeps upwards from the position of the control knob?

I think that's how it works Bart. If I'm wrong I'm pretty sure that is a type of expression pedal. Perhaps you already have one though and aren't in the market for another.

Man I hear you, winter is finally seemingly over here.. been over zero the last few days, lots of melting. Two weekends ago it was -34C on Saturday and Sunday morning, right now it's +7.

Thanks David! You'll be choosing soon, just a couple ahead of you to pick still!

I'll do that expression thing for you if it doesn't require any pcb futzing.. I'm too far in for any mods really but if it's just an easy wire hack then sure. I haven't pondered it but it should be an easy wire hack.. unless it isn't... *scary music*

You're Chooser #19 Ash! I'm on Chooser #9 now, Ian's up.

Boosh I'm there right now! Emailed!

The expression inputs on all my pedals take over for the knob, because I think that's the best way and... *Frank Sinatra voice* I do it myyyyyy waaaaaay!

When I get a round of prototype pcbs I always get 4.. so I had 3 extra ones that are exactly the same as the new production boards except they say Dec2013 instead of Mar2014... and then on Friday the Spin chips arrived.. so this weekend I built the first 3 BitQuests! I can't build anymore until I get the production pcbs, hopefully this week but more likely the week after, and then I'll build everybody's. I also don't have the metal knobs yet so I just used appropriate plastic knobs on these first 3 builds.. if you first 3 guys don't like your plastic knobs then we'll wait for your metal knobs, otherwise I can ship these for you tomorrow.

Everybody else, the wait is nearly over! The pcbs will be here soon and I'll probably need about a week to 10 days to get the rest built and shipped. I still have about 18 to sell so I think I'll just get all yours built and then worry about selling the rest.

Thanks again guys!
