For clarification, BYOC = Build Your Own Clone.

A line of do-it-yourself guitar effects pedals. Great products. Have you looked around on BYOC's forum? I have found a handful of templates on there and through Google images even.

Re: Paint templates for byoc

It's pretty straight forward...white or clear stencil (or decal) paper so you can slap whatever image you find onto the enclosure with your inkjet or laser printer. Lay the decal over the pedal and spray clear over it to protect it and keep it looking good.

I learned a LOT just from reading this singular thread. Build Your Own Clone Message Board • View topic - Subba's decal tips
