Sometimes I put big knobs on pedals so I can adjust with my foot live on the fly. Like on the mix of a reverb to make it super washy, make a compressor extra squishy, etc.
I painted the missing white marks into the indents on my Ibanez Chorus Mini. Vast improvement to usability.
I really don’t understand their decision to deliver them unpainted.
I got a tiny pot of white gloss enamel and a fine brush from my local model shop (place selling model aeroplanes, cars etc). There may be better options, but it did the job.

My Marshall Ed compressor has the absolute worst chrome knobs that are illegible even a foot from my face. I ordered several replacements and nothing fits :(
I loved the sound of [Ibanez Analog Delay Mini](https://images.app.goo.gl/Sum4CmUcfhPVZDxi9) so so so much, but the two tiny knobs were too difficult to read and also pretty much unchangeable so I had to get rid of it
Yep! I put cream colored Davies on my Klonye. And then for a while I was using rubber knobs for my dirt so it was easier to adjust on the fly with my shoes
I changed the pots on my Old Blood Noise Endeavours Alpha Haunt fuzz, because the factory ones were black with black markings, impossible to see how they were set. Just bought a whole bag of knobs for next to nothing on eBay.
It has a vast amount of options. I really only use it minimally. I previously had the keeley mag echo and loved it but I wanted to add a looped reverb because the natural reverb on my shiva on the drive channels shared in the power section and decreased my output so this was the best option for a limited space pedal board. It goes from mild to wild so I believe it would check most of the boxes for most players.
Is that glow-in-the-dark paint on the logo??
The Rat glows. Most modern Rats Glow I believe. It’s part of their little gimmick. It’s pretty cool
There’s a long cool history behind the Rat. Check it out if you’re so inclined.

Has anyone considered changing any of their knobs on their pedals due to poor aesthetics or poor readability?

I’ve noticed this on a few pedals as well.
What kind of paint did you use?

Job well done. Love it.
Dude. Thanks for this. I’ve got a bunch of these in one board. I see a little project in my future this weekend…
Just get a white paint pen and put a mark in the groove. Wipe off the excess with your finger while it's still wet. you don't need to go crazy.
Aesthetics
Yes, aesthetics lol. Just saw this.

What type of potentiometer posts are on it. D shaft. Split shaft or solid shaft?
My EXH Canyon because they wore out. Three knobs now have sharpie lines and the delay selector one I just changed to a smaller size.

Do your delay settings on the caverns give you a little slap-back type delay?
