Just the model in the Quad Cortex, but not sure how good it is. All the compressors in the QC are quite weak. I will try to compare it anyways.

I did a quick comparison against the Diamond model (standard, not bass) in my Quad Cortex. If I dial the tone all the way down on the Diamond, and enable the hi cut (not sure if the real compressor has that), it almost gets down to the tone shaping on the Squeeze Box. The Squeeze Box still has more low end, and cuts more high end. I can't compare with any of the other Diamond compressors though, as I don't have the pedals or models of them.
I just ordered a Slampegg. Will post my review once I get it. Thanks to all you guys on TB. I would have never found these pedals otherwise.
Good call on the Slampegg!
Speaking of which....does anyone have a Slampegg in white w/full color graphics? Curious as to what that would look like.

I have one coming in the April builds. Maybe Sr. Sushi could post a pic after it's painted.
I know I've made them before. I feel like I have pics of almost all the finished for almost all the pedals, I just need to dig through my phone and organize them. I'll take a look today and see what I've got.
Alright, I've sorted through the pics on my phone and it looks like I have about 70 pics that aren't on the website. For the pedals that have an SMD and handwired option available I want to start including gutshots so you can see the internal differences, so that includes some gutshots as well. I'm going through the pics now and organizing them, removing duplicates and such, then I'll get with @Sonicblaze about getting them posted.

Great news, thanks!
Seriously, pics of Rainbow's End do not do it justice. It's a gorgeous sparkly finish with different colored sparkles when viewed at different angles, and pics just make it look like it's covered in dust.
Having trouble finding my white/full color Slampegg pics though, I wonder if I actually took them. I've been surprised it hasn't been a more popular finish, it looks very sharp. I think I've only done one or two of them.

Thanks again for sharing! Would it be possible to change my recent order for a white, simple Slampegg to the Rainbow's End finish?
It looks like it, yup. I only opened 25 HW slots of a total 40 slots, and the HW slots went pretty fast (again). Once I get a chance to organize things and iron out the process I think I could get to a point where I don't have to limit handwired builds, but I'm limiting them now to be on the safe side so I don't overwhelm myself with time spent building.
Sure thing. I'll get in and update your order.

While I do love my sparkly white Underground Accelerator, I also have much love for that blacked out/sparkly/rainbow UA 
I know it's still in the back of my mind all the time. I'm sorry it's taking so long, but I promise you'll love it
I'm still fighting with my CNC machine, but in between rounds I'll see if I can get the SMD SS back on the bench and get it sorted. Like I said it's REALLY close already, I'll see if I can find some time tonight to get some clips recorded through it.
Dang!!! This just looks so good!
Looking at an Underground Accelerator yesterday, but this finished wasn't offered. Unless I missed something..
Now my arm is twisting seeing that Smoke Signal with silver knobs in this finish...

You may have missed it.
Well neat, not a bad price. I don't like when stores stick pricetags directly to the pedal, but other than that looks like it's in great shape.
