GodSaveMetal, could we see some gutshots and details of how you fabricated the stompswitch?  I like the idea of having an alternative to the low quality standard 3PDT switch.

I am guessing that they are probably just a grounding switch that operates a flip-flop circuit like most off-the-shelf pedals today. Not "true bypass."

Correct me if I'm wrong here, but it could be a millenium bypass, which is "true bypass", no? (just not mechanical true bypass)

TOUCHE sir.... I obviously have not had enough coffee this morning.  :icon_lol:

It could be a millenium bypass as well.

It could also potentially be a flip-flop operating a relay for true bypass.

How were you able to mount the tube socket? Was it bolted to a small piece of metal, then glued to the enclosure  ???

The socket had a middle connector which I pulled out and I put a screw through this hole to connect the socket to a spacing bolt or distance bold or whatever the english name is for these guys. The one with two holes on the right side. Some people put LED inside the socket hole I instead used a screw to get a solid connection to the enclosure.
Ad of course theres another screw on the outside of the enclosure.
