[quote name='Metal-Mariachi' post='167329' date='Mar 31 2008, 11:41 PM']I’d be very interested in buying one.

I also think the price is reasonable.
Funny I was toying with the idea of sending you an enclosure with my artwork/paint job to build one in.

Let us know when they will be available

They are available now.

I just need to write the instructions.

This sounds like a pretty good deal and I appreciate your efforts to keep your fantastic product available to those on a smaller budget.

I was wondering whether you had any tips about painting the encosure? How do you achieve such a thick and hard finish? Is it just a case of leaving the boxes to dry properly for a long time, or are there any particularly strong paints or varnishes that you would recommend? From the smell of it I would say at was some kind of enamel paint.

I really like the shiny metallic finish on the BJFE pedals, you'd probably be able to get that from using Hammerite paint.

2. As above but with pre-drilled box. - £70 + £4.25 P&P.

PayPal payments can be made at [email protected] but just write on the notes what it's for.

Will you be offering kits for any other pedals in the near future?

It depends on how this one goes. At present I have sold zero, so not looking good.

You should put these on ebay and your website and make an announcement over at Talkbass if you want to shift more of them...

They might go on ebay one day. I have less time now due to other comments so the kits are just a way of keeping things ticking over until I make other arrangements. So not really wanting to sell lots.

Also, I won't be sending kits to the US as we have a rep there now and it's up to him so I won't be making this offer on talkbass.

Wasn't that the VT1 compressor (I know because I was gonna buy it but was too late!)? This is a kit for the VT1 overdrive.
