Re: Recommendations for Labeling Aluminum Stomp Box

JohnC	Re: Recommendations for Labeling Aluminum Stomp Box That's clever indeed!! The only possible problem I can find is that usually ther's not enough space on the box for those knobs. But I'll remember that for my next pedal. Thanks. What I usually do is to make small round dots with enamel paint in different colors on the box itself. For example white dots for my blues setting, yellow for more gain. Easy to readjust exactly if the knobs are turned by any cause. I have done that to all of my pedals now, even the factory new ones. The knobs I use are those thin tall black ones with a white line as a pointing radius on the top of them. JohnC
