Building stompbox from channel switch pedal

[moraydah]

Okay folks,

so I have an old a-b box that I no longer use and I'm trying to do something cool with it... here's a picture of it, except the entire thing is black ( no words or any decals on it )

first of all, I would like some ideas on what kind of options I have based on the design of the box and what you guys think would be the easiest/best sounding thing to do to it. I am not opposed to drilling into the box to add trim knob, led, etc. (I'm guessing I could use that third input on the bottom as access for 9v DC power)

second, I am going to need some pretty specific details on how to get this whole thing going as I am NO expert. Like I said, this is my first project and I have never messed with wiring, pots, soldering, etc.

Soooo, get creative and let me know what I should do and I'll let you guys know any questions I WILL have!

Your help is greatly appreciated!

LED lit incense burner? Don't ask me for details cause I ain't never made one from a project box but I saw somebody here that did and it was way coooool!

Hahah yeahhh.. i was hoping to do something more useful with the box..

Is it as easy as just getting the internals from somewhere and putting the guts in this new box?

you could use the 3rd jack at the top as a jack for an expression pedal and build a pedal with one knob (fuzz, booster, phaser)
i would put in a 3dpdt switch, check if the jacks are one mono and one stereo.. and build this:

i built gus smalley's octave up sick box into one of them tiny one button fender footswitches. it's cool as hell.
can't fit a battery in it, but... also build mictester's super cheap comp into another one.
my "purple haze" pedal is kinda like the one you're working with.. in that case, it's gotta fuzzface into an overdriver.
works great!
