Members BrentMpls Posted October 21, 2012 Members Share Posted October 21, 2012 Does anyone know of a place that sells a variety of, or can custom make plates that slide over various switches? Or do you have any ideas how to make something similar yourself? For example if I wanted one to say just "Tone" or "Trim" or "Depth" or whatever. Here are some examples of well known ones to get a feel for what I mean. ^ Les Paul Pickup Toggle Style ^ Classic Radioshack on/off toggle ^ Maca's Guitar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cryptosonic Posted October 21, 2012 Members Share Posted October 21, 2012 Bet a trophy shop could do something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the boards are small enough to fit side by side it's a cinch. If like in the OCD/TS808 they can't coexist like that, it can be a bit of a pain! They seem popular though (i use one on my board also) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BrentMpls Posted October 23, 2012 Members Share Posted October 23, 2012 A local guy here designed a amp circuit that I was interested in due to it having good clean toanz, so I decided to build it and give it a whirl. Sure enough it does sound pretty good clean (maybe slightly overdriven when at a decent volume). It has output, trim and gain controls. It takes pedals really great (demo with fuzz and modulation coming soon) The dremel got away from me when doing the input jack.... oh well. Might try to fix that. Future mods include output (for bigger cab, headphones, whatever), power jack, and solar panel for solar power option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Axe_34 Posted October 23, 2012 Members Share Posted October 23, 2012 Very cool! Just finished a clone of the Monster Effects Swamp Thang tremolo. Very tasty. Reminds me a lot of the tremolo on my DRRI. Finish on the pedal is anodized red from Pedal Parts Plus -- they've got some really great finishes.

Members CodeMonk Posted October 28, 2012 Members Share Posted October 28, 2012 I know some of you here have heard me babbling about Apex Electronics in Sun Valley, Ca. more than once.For a DIY type, its like a candy store, but better.Since moving to Northern Nevada, well, I can't find anything even remotely close to Apex here.Now I know some of you HCFX'ers are in or near the Sacramento area. Is anyone aware of a place like Apex near the Sacramento area?Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Moustache_Bash Posted October 29, 2012 Members Share Posted October 29, 2012 Could you guys link me to how you etch your own boards? I was looking it up and found this link to Jameco: http://www.jameco.com/Jameco/PressRoom/makeoneetch.html Seems pretty simple, but I know there is usually more than one way to skin a cat and I wanted to know if this method has worked for you. Also, the sell the stuff he uses for $50 (http://www.jameco.com/webapp/wcs/sto...ductId=2113244) but I have no idea if that's about how much that stuff costs or if it is a mark up of a kit.

Can't speak for UK specific, but I really like my Stahl. 5-40 watts, nice station, replaceable tip, stock one is great. Cost $20. Weller is prob the best, but those jump up to $80. If you are going to be putting a lot of pedals together its worth it I think, but if its just one here or there I dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
