BNS, Congrats on the new amp!!!

ps;Boss has a very good a/b switch, i have had one which i used to switch
between the two channels of a voxac30cc2. When channels can be blend
you can also use a A/B/Y switch( morley for example)

Thanks Bluesbrother and thanks Slow for your suggestion. I expanded my thinking and decided to go custom and have a few features built into it (loop, tuner kill, plus quad A/B). May as well go for the gusto. I decided to have the box built by MaxxPlay. The guy is Anthony Gelona and I can say honestly I don't think I've ever gotten better customer service from anyone on anything (although I haven't ordered it yet so if anyone has info on MaxxPlay let me know).

I also asked Analogman if he could build me what I wanted and I received a very disappointing email. He basically told me that he was too busy to deal with me but I could download one of the pictures from his website, adjust it in photoshop, send it back to him and compute the price myself from his price list. By contrast, within 1 day Anthony had emailed me 3 very professional schematics of possible boxes, and his suggestions for what else might be useful to add. I have a bunch of Analogman stuff and I haven't been let down before but I was very displeased with the service this time.

Very cool BNS.
Customer service is very important nowadays. There is no shortage of boutique builders out there. David from Loooper was the same way, I had a need for a very custom loop box and we emailed back and forth and discussed possible options for about a month before I placed my order. He genuinely seemed excited about the project (something a little different from his normal orders) and the pedal ended up only costing me a wopping $50. Unfortunately he developed Carpal Tunnel Syndrome & can't make pedals anymore. :cry:
