Convention creates following, following creates convention.

All very cool! I really like the Caprice labeling. Im thinking bout doing the same thing with a Cougar for a distortion pedal.
"I think somebody should come up with a way to breed a very large shrimp. That way, you could ride him, then after you camped at night, you could eat him. How about it, science?"

My buddy Bill chose the one I had built with "ROYALE BROUGHHAM'
 then "88" under that, same size and color box as the "Caprice".
 These emblems are hard to find though, I think they make boxes EZ to finish and striking to look at. More could be done to 'frame' them for an even more profound image. Contact Cement, couple minutes.

Bottom row...
 Vox Wah
 SS phaser in VOX treadle case [speed treadle control] Nice
 on top in middle OS Comp on an 18 amp sim
in front blue and red is a FF, the the '88' [small thin RM AXIS Bill's now}, Caprice is a Micro amp, XII [blue on red under knobs] is an EA Tremolo,
The "Homey' treadle is another wah, but now houses a Big Muff, FF, and Jfet booster with Clean [bypass]
 The "Homey' Switches go like:
  Clean TB, or Jfet Boost
 Hit the Fuzz switch and it's:
 BMP or FF [on a "FUZZ's switch then a "Fuzz Choice' Switch]
 also wah is on bypass...
 Black Clock Bell [small] is a Treble Booster...
 Works the way I like this way, some knobs are sometimes bypassed...has to be setup...then it performs tasks pretty flawlessly.
 Then the long thing...ONKYO reciever front panel...nice unit too, EZ access [1 or 2 screws per board after the 2 screw back comes off] to circuit board bottom...roomy, EZ installations [sw knobs etc.], I like it:
It has
Clean or Jfet
 then switch and it's:
  FF or Obsidian,
 Tycho Octavia last has BP switch also.
 Works great, has Faves in it, clean, boost, FF takes care of many tasks, and the Obsidian gets set for Lead sound/volume.
 The sw's on this are setup so it switches without dialing from good sound to good sound...clean, clean w/boost, FF [clean and Dist from Guitvol], Obsidian for leads, and Tycho Octave. I'd have to rethink it by drawing it out to explain it EZ... [ I hope you're confuzed about how I tried to type up the switching...lol I am].
 probly I'll get bored and do that too..lol...left wrist lacks strength and is partially disabled from that nasty box cutting episode I had last week,...OUCH...hurts only when I use it a certain way, gets fatigued easily...working it back up is a good excersize and forces me to rethink playing techniques...always a silver lining when you get lucky...could have been much worse.
