nice.
the orange kinda reminds me of Empress Efx. Trem... only in colour though.
so it's meant as a table top unit then?? not a stomp?
i like the gritty sound on the viola mp3!!!

Yes. Didn't have to be, as long as it was fully stereo, but since it was a custom order, I figured I might as well get the switches that worked best for me.

It's true. I have and use several pedals, and if they have the big silver switches (whatever their proper name is) rather than foot/pedal rocker type of switches (like the Boss way) then they aren't so bad.
But since everything I do is on a tabletop, being a button pushing knob twiddler for my live sets rather than playing any instruments, the table-top form factor is much more appealing to me.

steve, what about buying a Hammond 1590 box, two of whatever stombpox you are groovin' on, and a handful of SPST switches?
you could then make your own tabletop stereo fuzz boxes out of just about any small-format pedal.

Should anybody be interested in acquiring a stereo fuzz of their very own, Tom at EFM is conducting a stompbox group buy over at KVR and a few of us are trying to drum up interest in a stereo fuzz. On the table so far is a stereo BeeBaa clone, but Tom isn't sure it'll fit in a single enclosure, so a different kind of fuzz circuit can be suggested.
Thread about the sale is over here:

(sorry for the spamminess, but this will likely be the only time I do such a thing)

i've been looking at that, can't say i'd be in the market for a stereo fuzz box at this time (cool idea though)...i checked out some demos on YT, and tbh i'm a little more intrigued by the sound of the Fender Blender, curious if he can make one of those...not sure exactly the difference between the BeeBaa (never even heard of it before that thread) and the Big Muff (besides the treble boost)...but the price sounds good either way, i just didn't want to undermine your and Donovan's interest with the BeeBaa by bringing up the Fender Blender clone, whatever...

No, no, bring up the Fender Blender by all means.
