A 1970's Tycobrahe Octavia Vintage Pedal, heard these were amazing, but at $2k think I'll stick to building a clone for $58

This has to be a record for a compact pedal... IF it sells.

Interestingly, I just ordered all the bits to make a clone of this. The hardest thing to find is the transformer - $2.75 at Small Bear. OK, OK, I know it will be a clone, but for the $2000 I'll save I'll be able to afford 30 or 40 Boss pedals.

The Parapedal would be cool too, but finding a dual ganged pot to fit in the original rack pinion might me the hard part

Did you get the one from generalgadgets with the pre-gain, or from Tonepad?

Just bought the transformer and the components I didn't have from Small Bear and am going to use the generalguitargagets schematic to do-it-myself.
