I'm excited this morning since I plugged in and everything worked. I have to be honest that I was dreading the trouble shooting process, but I can delay it to a future build since I know it's coming.

Thanks to everybody here as this forum is one of the reason I purchased B.Y.O.C. pedals. Special thanks to all the successful build tip threads, Orange Mods thread and the thread on using transparencies and EnviroTex. I still need to improve my technique, but I'll take it for a first build.

I've been playing through a DigiTech RP500 direct to a PA system, but want to get back to a tube amp and need some effects pedals to do that they way I want.

It's a little lonely, but I have plans... :D

First?! Nice work!!!

And the board pic gave me a nice chuckle....better to start w the board and psu than to have a mess on the floor that needs tidying up, IMO

I'm a little dazed and a bit confused how your 1st build came out so beautifully. Keep up the good work!

That's really impressive for a first, are'nt you playing us? :lol:

I agree with MrClean, about the power supply and pedalboard, being ready for war is the way to go!

Congrats on your first. Looks very nice to say the least. Poor fella does look lonely. I think if you ask him he'd say he wants a muff 8)

Fantastic 11th.. sorry 1st build! Your homework on the forum certainly paid off. Looking at that board you obviously read about the addictive part as well.

Give it a few more months and that board will demand another board.
Excellent build, and board setup man!

Excellent build. From the looks of it, if you had to troubleshoot, you would have done so with no problem.
