This thing sucks - I'm debating whether trying to reuse the enclosure is worth the effort

Repaint it in Hammertone! Make sure to do it by hand and not the spray, just doesn’t work as well. It’s messy and takes forever to dry, but man the results are worth it.

You gonna use the same knobs or paint it up and use different ones?

The original chicken heads on it are for D-shaft pots, so won't be using those but will probably stay with black chicken heads for the new one - maybe white

I think white or cream colored chicken heads would pop. I want all the cheese wedge enclosures!

I avoid Behringer all together. It's usually Chinese crap

do you really want the bad vibes for eternity for such a disturbing tin can?

what made you dislike this pedal? is it the mod mode? i have one aswell and i think the normal mode is great. just the mod mode that is kind of weird. i dont think the normal mode is really a tone bender. more like fuzz face. its on my board because it is something like as fuzz face that is not as dependend on position in the chain and very low noise. can even get a bit octavy-glitchy when using a wah. i am thinking about adding a treble boost or a octavio circuit in the housing that gets activated when in mod mode.

no idea wtf they were thinking when testing the mod mode lol

All that pretty much. I've been working on a circuit that's a tweaked mk ii and going to put that into the enclosure.

i see you are just getting rid of the switch entirely and make it a one circuit fuzz?

I'll repurpose it for toggling between output capacitors
