BYOC Tremolo

Here's a BYOC Tremolo pedal that I built. It's my first crack at finishing a case, so while it looks good, it's not 'pro quality'. I'm probably being a little rough on myself, but what can I say. I don't need this pedal really as my 18 watt clone has an excellent tremolo in it already, so if you're interested in it let me know!

How did you paint the pedal before putting on the decals?

[StratMN]

@Unreal75 just with standard hardware store spray paint. :)

Does you tremolo distort when you hit strings hard? Mine does even after setting trim pot low.

I guess I haven't noticed that... what kind of guitar / pickups are you using with the pedal?

[PLUMBdogg]

looks good from here. how did you get the words on? did you use iron on transfers or decals etc.? i gave up trying to decal and have just been painting them but i'd love to get some nice graphics on them like yours. let me know how you did it.

I used the inkjet decal paper. I created the labels in Photoshop on my mac, then printed them on regular paper until I got the right size. Then I printed numerous copies of each label on a single sheet of the decal paper. Before cutting and applying, spray the decal paper with a light coat of clear - it keeps the decal from running when the water hits it.

@StratMN Cool thanks! The pedal looks great btw. Where did you get those jumbo-sized nobs?

What BYOC kit is a good one to start out with??

[TheLongBoardLucas]

@angryparrot well if you ever want to try it out, low power soldering pens are like $15 at radio shack and byoc kits have details instructions and everything. There's a few kits that are a lot more simple

[FUTTAHSIKK]

its way easier than you think actually

[AaronF1900]

He is using that MD3,

hope that helped

[OnlyByFishStandards]

i would get the plans from tonepad (.) com and i would start out simply by a few simple soldering projects you can find online

[classicrocker12392]

what amp or pedal are you using to get that tone other than the trem and the delay? that overdriven tone is orgasmic.

are you selling this?
