A/DA Flanger, all SMD (except for the MN3007, obviously.) Seriously impressive -- the pics would have you believe this is a production box. His own layout.

Yeah, thats a brilliant effort. Do you know where to get those knobs, Alan?
Too many guitars, not enough talent.

Re: The bar is getting REALLY high
No, sorry... my guess would be Smallbear/Mammoth/PedalPartsPlus, one of those places.
As for the finishing process... I'M the resident weirdo, everyone else's enclosures look fucking amazing on there. From etching (like Moollon stuff) to unbelievable decals (Juansolo did a stoner-riffic multiFX that he used the coverart to Dopesmoker on, pinched the idea for Cold Dark Sun) to laser etching to really well done decals/waterslides like that.

Re: The bar is getting REALLY high
Yeah thats a nice build and I agree, the bar is getting high, I'm looking forward to the continuing developments of pedal building...Hobby-wise and pro
However I just have to say in the end its all about the tone and what you're actually after, just because a PCB may look pretty, doesnt mean much in terms of actual tone...for example the first JTM45 guts look a bit like a pig's breakfast but so what?
I guess I'm talking here really about old school circuits not new, high-tech stuff with (necessarily) all the bells and whistles etc...
