Personally Im hoping what you suggest happens
It would really be rewarding to properly pick your pedal and reflect the commitment of the prepayment / preorder

I think Ryan should cast a couple of 12 sided dice to sort it out in true bit quest style!

Just hope that you don't have a critical miss and Ryan stuffs your pedal with 8 tubescreamers.

Guys, there's 4 colours and about a dozen of you have asked for colours... everybody is probably going to get a choice of black or black so I wouldn't worry too much about it...

Adam and I are pondering adding some colour to some of these so more people can have a coloured box.. so don't get in a tizzy yet about picking one.

TBH Im happy with a monochrome one but unless the posted image isnt a true reflection it seems the contrast "varies" across the batch
This is a cool bi-product of the hand made process and one which I am comfortable with regardless, but the perfectionist in me would like to pick one of the "higher contrast" ones if possible.

Or, personally, do something like put 48 pre-order dude names in one hat, 48 pedal numbers in another hat, and then make a nice video of picking pairs.
True random. The video would be cool!

This is my fault! I only added color to a few and now there are twelve with color. The rest are black and silver. Because this was mass etch, there are some differences in the etches but nothing major. Some are duller or have some sanding, others are real crisp.

Like I said before, I've literally been working my fool head off to ensure everyone gets something cool looking.

The picture here was not for pre order choices, just to show that it's done and will be ready soon!

I think it's first come, first served.

Thanks guys!!!

Totally fine with anything. Sorry for making a fuzz (giggle...) about nothing.

Id love one that looks like the ones top right in this pic. Crisp!
Didnt realise there was etch all over the sides too. Thats awesome.

If there is indeed 12 colours though and I'm #9 I wouldnt mind a looksee at those ones and a choose if possible

They all look sweet, Adam! And I love that they all look unique, that's awesome and cool. I should have warned you too that just a few coloured ones might not be enough. *smile*

The people who pay first get to pick first.. I like that method. Ian, you're British, you should appreciate a nice queue! *big smile*

Franz, you're #3, you'll be picking soon, sir!

Adam will colour a few more, he'll send 'em to me, I'll do a group photo and number them and go through the list and get y'alls choices and build them and ship them. Sound like a plan?

A great man once told me to "always bet on black". Or maybe that was Wesley Snipes.

Thanks Kevin and Andrew and Josh and Jerrod! 22 down!

Still hoping Wesley Snipes orders one, not too late...

I was thinking these shiny skinny metal knobs would be cool http://www.4siteelectronics.com/4SKA_14X16UN_p/700-1800.htm

Thanks again, guys! I'm excited too! This is the longest time frame and biggest learning curve for any project I've done and I hope you guys have a lot of fun with this pedal!

:love: those knobs! Is the patch selector knob larger than the rest? I looks like the hole is bigger for that one but my eyes could be playing tricks on me.
