The Sushi Box FX Secret Society

In fact, maybe that would be a good thing to offer. Sushi Box 'Mystery Pedal' where you just send money and you take whatever shows up!

I have thought about making "dealer's choice" an option for finishing, you get whatever I feel like doing at the time. Most of the time that would just end up being full color though, it takes the least amount of setup time and is the one I get the most consistent results with.
 
Mini update: everything in the June batch that has a tube included has been tested, the only pedals that have issues were one that I forgot to finish wiring and one that works perfectly but the LED doesn't come on, both of which will be easy fixes. Everything that doesn't have a tube will get tested tonight, and I think I can pull a massive boxing-shipping event and get all the shipping notices out at once.
 
Pedal of the month!

Maybe he'll do 13 pedals for a Penny, then you have to buy 2 more in the future at full price. Each month you get a selection of pedals to choose from, but unless you say you don't want any of them then you get one sent automatically and are charged full price.

Sounds like a great business model that should work well with any number of things, actually!
 
Alright, I was able to get everything buttoned up and ready to go except two pedals, a Slampegg whose owner is on here somewhere but whose username I can't remember, and @mmbongo 's Robot Butterfly. Slampegg has a dead component in the HV power section, Robot Butterfly I goofed and put the wrong component on, so I just need to get in and swap it, but it's a little involved. So both of those will happen tomorrow, everything else will get shipped in the next 30 minutes or so.
 
So I'm working on a song idea that's been stuck in my head for months, and I can't for the life of me find a creative bass part that doesn't sound like I'm trying too hard. I may make a contest out of "write my bass part for me" :p
Free SBVT for the winner? Lol.
I’d be in for a whirl. Just don’t expect 16th notes on the root with a pick. I’ll wander off on a tangent.
 
Free SBVT for the winner?
I mean I have 6 (not sure how it happened) Westinghouses sitting around without an owner, if it's a really cool bass riff I could probably be talked into putting one up.

I'll throw in vocals as well. Need lyrics?
I most certainly do. Lyrics are usually the last thing I do because I'm terrible at writing lyrics.

I'm still working on the chorus riff, but I have a recording of the intro, bridge, and chorus that I'm uploading now. It's dirt simple (like everything I write), Am - G - C - Dm - Am - G - F - Em.

And while I was typing this out the upload finished:

 
On an unrelated (but much more important) note, I got @mmbongo 's Robot Butterfly taken care of, getting ready to get his pedals shipped out. Love how this combination turned out.
