And the completed innards:
Unable to leave well enough alone, I peeled off the sticky labels to replace with waterslide decals, and took off some paint too. So I rubbed it down, resprayed, put the decals on, let them dry, then added a few coats of clear lacquer. Thinking all was well, I started to re-install the electronics, only to find that some of the paint was as soft as Dairylea. So I scraped it all off with a scalpel:
Then rubbed it down with steel wool, put it all together, and added waterslide decals for the control labels, and a sticky label for the name. It lives!
EDIT: I had half a mind to leave the distressed white paintwork in 'tribute' to EHX's shonky paint jobs, but I couldn't be sure that the paint would ever go off!
Ordered a couple of Rangemaster PCBs from websmurfer on eBay. Someone kindly sent me a couple of suitable Ge transistors. Was gonna vero it but the two boards posted were only a fiver and it makes mounting the board easy. One will be for a friend, Musso from the Black Apples. He doesn't know yet
Always wanted to try a Rangemaster. I've got a Selmer Treble n Bass 50 head which would suit it well I think. The guitar channel is a bit shit but when you jumper the guitar and bass channels it's super meaty
Bits ordered! I'm going to do two germainum Rangemasters and the Zander Foxxton Woods:

Tacked a few bits onto the order so I can do a Sunny T Extreme later on. Fuzz Dog have some AC128s landing soon so I want to do a germanium fuzz face. Got my eye on a couple of things a Musikding too
I have polished up the enclosure. I need to label up the pots somehow, but am short of ideas for doing this. Don't want to paint the enclosure.
If you or someone you know has nice neat handwriting it's a good low-tech, no-fuss way to label a pedal.
Don't talk politics and don't throw stones. Your royal highnesses.
As an aside, the gate knob doesn't seem to do much on mine. Is this normal?
Thanks for the idea - I might scour ebay for similiar letter stickers.
OK - here it is, just with the labelling to finish off. I might tidy some of the wiring up before I call it finished officially.
