Why is it blank?? I just got one like that too. I'd prefer the graphics be on there personally.

You want me to etch it? ;)

I built 3 out of 4 channels on mine - missing two resistors. Gave up on modular addict and just ordered some locally. Won't be using them again for anything!
Building my DPLPG today.
What's your method for the smd's - I found they kept sticking to the solder/my iron and had to use tweezers to hold them in place which were then getting stuck too, was a real battle!

Mustang also arrived a few days ago. I believe I have found my perfect guitar. :love:

will have a LSTR vs Pharoh vs Buzzz next week to see who survives the purge.
Now that's healthy. Grats, mang. :cool:
Honestly I feel a bit insane buying something I already have, but I've never used a pedal this much before so it'd be nice having one for the synth and backup.

Still feels insane tho.

I think I'm overall OK with how my transaction with them went. In the end I got all the correct parts. I'm probably still gonna buy a Meng Qi Please Exist kit from them, but gonna make sure they double check the parts.

With the resistors.....kinda like this [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_DsCdOaRUPM[/youtube]
I found after getting the resistor over the pads with the tweezers, it was easier to then just push downward on top with the tweezers while touching the iron to the solder, instead of holding them in place with the tweezers. turns out I have shaky hands haha.

I have prior experience with the Zoom G5 granular sampler effect and have a feeling this will be a major upgrade.
Ugh...I am on the fence about this one. I'm kind of waiting to see what the INFINITE JETS is like. It's not a budget thing (one pedal is two times the price of the other). I just am making a point to not have "stuff" any more. I have the Scrutator and Sneak Attack and I love them both. Generally love Malekko. I had GAS for the Geiger Counter Pro but having OG Geiger Counter and the Scrutator and the boss syb3, can't rationalize it. I don't know...

That's quite a bit of crushing and glitch potential you have on hand there. I hear you about "stuff" after having to purchase a second plastic cabinet to contain ever-growing pedal excess. I currently lust for a Geiger Counter Pro and will find a way to pony up the casholla if it is ever released. The main issue that prevents me from taking the plunge with the OG Geiger Counter is lack of preset storage.

The Infinite Jets looks like an amazing creative tool, and the ability to store presets is a definite plus. Though, I'm guessing it will be priced similarly to the Dream Sequence, i.e., more than my miserly ass is currently willing to pay for a glitchmaker that may only see limited use. This opinion may change if the Charlie Foxtrot proves to be more of a mainstay in my rig than the comparable effect on the Zoom G5 was.

I can post a mini review of the Charlie Foxtrot if and when it arrives (it was purchased during the current 17% off sale from Prymaxe Vintage, who seems to get mixed reviews from their customer base).

I've always wondered why some don't like Prymaxe...?
I've had nothing but excellent service and deals with them.

Once I had to cancel a pre-order during a big sale ...and two months later they still gave me that price even though sale was long gone.
