Here is my Thunderchief project from runoffgroove.com!
Thanks to all who helped my with a couple of problems i had.

Hammond style enclosure, Fultone cream knobs, blue led (everything bought at smallbearelec.com)
It sounds awesome! i am really happy with it. The sound is very Tube like.
Hope you like the pics



I have a really nice sounclip of it but i can´t found a place to uploading for free, does anybody know one?

Thanks!

...Great Looking Pedal   :D
 What type of Jfets' did you use?
Convention creates following, following creates convention.

Thanks!

I have used J102 fets. They sound very nice.
This thing sounds very ¨real¨, it is one of the best distortion boxes i have ever heard.
The first thing i tried with it was an open g chord with the gain and vol on max, and wow!
AC/DC, ZZ top, Aerosmith, Guns n´ Roses, it is all in this little box.
This guys from runoffgroove are Genius

What did you use for the labels?

Take care,

Thanks Peter!

I used something called Letraset which is a transfer that comes with letter and small designs.
Tomorrow i will clearcoat the box to protect it.

That looks terrific, but for all the newbies out there I bet you meant J201 Fets. Right?

Yes j201 fets, sorry for the mistake.

Kerry, it wasn´t a design of myself, it was one of the designs that came with the transfer.
Thanks for your nice words.
Do you know where can i post soundclips of this? i have a very nice one.
Thanks

There's a sound sample at runoffgroove. :) Cool looking build!
I don't like Holland. Nobody has the transistors I want.
