part tube screamer, part orange squeeze... they said it didn't exist, but here you can see the body I tracked down deep in the forests of the everglades...

So are you "manufacturing" these or just re-wrapping the presents?
Would seem on the surface that you have a talent that you could be exploiting to you benefit.

I'm not manufacturing... just a hobby.

this is a 'one of a kind' pedal.

I did etch the copper pcb board and wired the thing from the resistors up if that's what u mean. I chose the parts... used all mallory caps... high quality potentiometers... you'd be amazed at the difference quality parts can make.

The schematics were of a tube screamer and orange squeezer... they did not originate from me... but I hope to learn what it takes to develop my own circuits someday... and not just build clones of other folks hard work.

that reminds me... I gotta go check some new pcbs I'm etching!
