I see you already thinking in a whole range of pedals !  :D
I totally support the idea of European boutique pedal builders ! There's not enough of them !!

naaa! If I ever think to sell a pedal I will follow the golden rule 2x components price + some workmanship..so with a pedal dead simple like this it would be way less than industrial production!

Sounds good!
Reminds me a little bit of Neil Young too, but Neil's sound isn't that raw, more round & bassy.

I already have a predrilled enclosure that I was using for another project (that doesn't work so good)

Thats how I do it.  Once you add up paypal costs, shipping, printing supplies and whatnot, it ends up being more than you really wanna charge :(
I prefer their older stuff.

ok..there are some updates..
I've been experimenting at 360° in these days..the news:
I got rid of the double channel idea, but I'm keeping an additional gain stage, then I've increased the headroom a bit on every single stage, to keep the previous sound while doubling the input inpendance..plus I've put it in a pseudo rat enclosure! :)

Where we are now:
I was thinking to omitt thebuffer thing but it seems it wants it in every case...when buffered the sound remembers a big muff but with much ,much much, more clarity..shimmering highs with still round bass response..obviously it has lot less gain since it has lot less stages..but the idea can grow even more! :)
Now I have no more transistors, no more resistors and no more caps to throw in!
And not so many money too!
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock'n'roll! 8)
