I sent you a pm as well but the inside of the glass butterfly is so good looking i thought I'd share with the group as well.
That needs the power ground fix. It will help immensely.
This was designed after "the fix" became standard. If there's a single diode (little black rectangle thing) in line with the power wire instead of four diodes close together, then it already has the fix. The nine smaller diodes down by the rotary switch are for routing address signals and are unrelated to the power input.

Sorry……. I was sure I had this right.
 
Finally is out of stock for now, and instead of building more units to have in stock I decided to go apple picking with the family for the day then come home and watch movies. One of the main reasons I can't do this full time is that I'll have a day every now and then where I just don't feel like working. Maybe I'll feel more pedaly (an actual adjective) tomorrow.

Loads of cool stuff in the pipes though, super excited about SBVT II, Grand Slampegg, Furthermore, and a couple more things I'm working on with a couple really cool people and will have more details when things are a bit more tangible.

sbvt ii and grand slampegg are self explanatory but I couldn't find any info on the furthermore. Sorry I have scoured the thread but couldn't find it. What's it all about?

It's been slowly in the works for a couple years now. It's an original design clean preamp, using More as a starting point, with a three-band EQ similar to the SBVT, complete with switchable mids frequencies. Furthermore also has a variable frequency high-pass-filter, D.I. output, and headphone output with line-in.

So the WBIM-less enclosures are sold out?

I am likely speaking for the class in supporting your need for a day off, mental [in]sanity and especially family time as being more important than your side hustle we enjoy so much. Enjoy your day.

Are the enclosure sizes finalized? Curious to know how what the sizes will be for these 3.

SBVT II - 145 X 121 X 39.5mm (5.7" x 4.8" x 1.6"), same as Dreamcatcher, Detective

Furthermore - 145 X 121 X 39.5mm (5.7" x 4.8" x 1.6"), same as Dreamcatcher, Detective

Grand Slampegg - 120mm x 94mm x 38mm (4.7" x 3.7" x 1.5"), same length and width as JC Emerald, Black Eye II and Venus Z, but a little taller, and being used in "portrait" orientation to accommodate the tall tube.
 
The Tarantula Fuzz showed up today, so I tossed it on my test board where I've been A/B'ing different fuzz, octave fuzz and preamp/DI pedals for a new song my band is tracking next month. I've only had one other real germanium pedal, and it definitely has that character going. Sounds like an angry hornet nest in a bottle when you crank up that tone :laugh: . It's especially awesome pushing either, or even both, of the octave fuzzes on my board into it.

Very nice @Sushi Box FX!

Depends on which version you have. Historically they've always been 1Mohm unless someone specifically requested a modification for higher. The current version with film caps and soft switching have a couple minor changes, including increasing input impedance to 5.6Mohm. I also lowered the frequency response to start tapering at 25Hz instead of 40-ish Hz because of the comments I received that it felt like a noticeable HPF.
found my answer from several weeks ago. is this something that can be 'upgraded' for my MORE? my guess is no, it would have to be a complete circuit swap.

Input impedance is a simple component swap, it's absolutely changeable without swapping the circuit board.
 
Well after a busy day of home projects with the wife I still didn't really feel like building tonight. Me and the kids started on our ambitious halloween project though, excited to see how this turns out.

I didn't notice it at the time, but looking at these pictures I'm seeing that I literally pushed Finally v3 prototype circuit boards out of the way to work on this :laugh:
