Throwin' this out there....
Anyone try an SV-Pre into a SBVT (or vice-versa)?
Just wondering....
SV-Pre + Westinghouse is a good combo. Sounds great in either direction.

I'm gonna say this again - PA (and I can imagine UA) into Slampegg is magic.SV-Pre + Westinghouse is a good combo. Sounds great in either direction.
Anything into Finally also fits that bill.
The Finally at the end of my board is amazing either into my amp or to our XR18 for practice with the 1/4" out. The DI is fantastic as well when needed.
It is great. I just completed my IEM board for church, put a IR pedal right before it this weekend. Performs good, need to try it out this upcoming Sunday going to FOH.
I'm slowly replacing my Harmonic Booster with the Smoke Signal for my always on tone. Ideally I'll use the Harmonic Booster as just that, Booster or to kick in the clank for metal tracks.
The UA mod helped out the low end tremendously on both blue and red channels.

I had a fun conversation with my wife today.
Me: I'm getting close to finishing the February batch, all of these are ready to go.
Her: And then you're going to start on the March batch?
Me: No, I didn't take any March orders so I can take a break.
Her: ...but you're not going to take a break, are you?
Me: Well no, not really.

Small update: got all the Fluffy Kittens boxed up after work today. I have two pedals that failed testing (BE and SH), one that I've been putting off because it's tedious (Echosaurus), and two waiting for transformers (Finally, obviously) then February is done. I got distracted over the weekend so I didn't get to my repair/mod list, but I'm going to jump on that tonight.
Sushi Box shipping department hard at work.
I have fallen for the Sashimi Fuzz and have been creepily stalking it for the past few weeks. I tried hard to not think about it all day long and to casually gather some more information. It is probably way to expensive with shipment to Europe and then there are customs charges... and then I read this:
Sushi-Sensei is there a chance the Sashimi Fuzz will love me back?
And now I´m low key panicking.

I got shipping notices last night!!
Although, one of them still says Space Heater—that one was changed to a UA, and I paid the up charge for it immediately, so hopefully I’ve got a UA coming along with the JCE X?

I guess it depends what kind of fuzz tone you're looking for. As a wannabe-guitarist, when I think fuzz I think Fuzz Factory, screaming wild saturation and glitchiness. Sashimi does not fall in that category. Sashimi is a smoother, less aggressive fuzz, maybe the "fuzz for people that don't really like fuzz."
I haven't made a solid decision one way or the other on long term plans for Sashimi, but when February builds are finished and before I open ordering for April I have a handful of in-stock pedals I will be listing for sale, and there will be at least one (more likely two) Sashimis, so there will be chances to see one around.
So that caused some excitement on my end as well. When you changed your order I made a note on the website, but not in my master build list that I print out and follow during the process, so I actually built the Space Heater you originally ordered. Then when I was handling shipping I saw the note on your order that said "order changed to UA, difference PAID" I kicked myself for not being more organized. So I pulled a new circuit board and threw an enclosure on the CNC machine. Fun fact, from the initial thought of "I need to make a UA" to "this UA is finished and ready to go" I can do one in about 2 hours. So your order has the JCE and the UA, and the SH I mistakenly made will be going up for sale at the end of the month.
On that note, I will not be accepting any more order changes going forward, I've proven to myself that I'm not organized enough for it. If you need to make a change before I've ordered parts and started building your pedal then I can cancel your order and have you re-order, but leaving myself notes in the website isn't working.
That’s the best way to describe the Sashimi—a fuzz for people who don’t like fuzz. That’s why it works perfectly for me. I don’t like the glitchy, gated fuzz pedals, and I’ve tried a ton. The Sashimi doesn’t sputter or glitch, it’s just smooth even fuzz sound. And it sounds great behind filters. I love it.
Sorry I caused you headaches!! In all honesty, if I would have gotten another Space Heater, it wouldn’t have been the end of the world. It probably would have gone on my board as a tube boost before my drive pedals….obviously getting the UA is better and I’m glad you caught it. I’m just saying I’d have found a use for a 2nd SH if you hadn’t!
No worries, I cause my own headaches
@Sonicblaze pointed out that there is a way to edit orders so they show up in the exported list, I just still don't know how to fully use my website. So this has been a learning experience, and now I can (hopefully) avoid this particular headache in the future. And this is nowhere near the first time this has happened, on the old website the "cancel order" feature never seemed to work, so when someone canceled I would refund them through paypal then forget to mark it on the site, then end up building the pedal they ordered anyway.
Alright my dudes, I have a quick market research question.
I'm looking at a pedal design with 8 knobs. No tubes so no vent slots to work with, but trying to figure out how I want to lay out the box. I'm considering three options:
I'm looking at a pedal design with 8 knobs. No tubes so no vent slots to work with, but trying to figure out how I want to lay out the box. I'm considering three options:
- 1590BB horizontal (like DW, JCE, etc) with the knobs all in one row
- 1590BB vertical (like sideways DW) with two rows of four knobs in a row
- 1590XX horizontal (like Smoke Signal) with the knobs all in one row but spaced out more

#2 - if you have a horizontal pedalboard (Nano, Nano Max, etc) it takes almost an 1" less of horizontal space this way, but still fits in the same vertical space as a 125B enclosure
Figured some peeps here might enjoy this one.
