Construction and cosmetic concerns:
A unique custom enclosure that balances size and utility very well. I love to see pedals that come up with new and interesting ways to allow battery access. The drawer in this case is pretty darn snug, and my attempts to swap the batter didn’t go quite as smoothly as I was dreaming of, but not needing a screwdriver handy for the swap was a plus, and I didn’t have to fret over loosing the screw because it is case captured. The deep brown paint seems very durable and resistant to chips and the single color silk-screen is also well done.
The ability to ‘mate’ with their envelope filter also seems like a cool feature and I’m sorry I don’t have the ability to try it out right now.
very informative. i knew very little on this box before this review. i thought the Brown Dog looked a bit bulky and the color scheme did not catch eye. Shows me how much emphasis i place on design appearance. :) The fuzz possibilities sound fantastic, and you show the construction to be functional. It is that price tag that however, that will keep this great fuzz from joining my ranks any time soon.
