For something as small as a stompbox enclosure, I think graphics are nice, but color combinations matter more.


Colors are everything

I agree but I think the Maxon/Ibanez enclosures are awesome. Especially the ones from the 9 series.

My Maxon AD-9 is :love:

Unique enclosures cost lots of money. Most pedal builders can't afford 'em. You'd need to be selling massive amounts of pedalage for it to be worth it.

More builders need to wrap their enclosures in stuff and light 'em on fire.
Turns out really well.

Dude? Those knobs aren't toasty enough.

And instead of an LED, a jet of fire needs to shoot out the hole to let you know the pedal is on.
