That's absolutely mind blowing! The sickest etching I've seen yet.

What effect is it??

Anyone familiar with how these are made? My father's an artist and does painted etchings with an etching press, and I'm wondering if he has the right equipment to make something like this. I'm guessing he does, I'm just not sure how.

So I'm getting an unpainted Fuzzrocious Dark Driving, and was wondering who could etch it? Thinking of just saying "Dark Driving - Fuzzrocious" in Star Trek font.

Behndy has been an inspiration! his etched pedals are too cool!

Here's my collection of etched pedals. PWNZOR, Proton, Polytope on the current board. Fromel also did a bass Seraph and combination Death Is Gain/Shape EQ for me. The art on the DIG/EQ is a cross section of my tattoo that I sent him.

5sg.







Sorry... couldn't resist. "No pic no proof," right? It's reversed in the mirror, but the top part on my shoulder looks a bit like a stylized bass clef... completely unplanned!

Gekko, that tatt is awesome. I have always wanted to do a similar design... but my fellow church members would burn me at the stake
