Just a straight up 5 Knob Comp I built for customer in Toronto, posting this because my wife Kate did a wonderful job on the labeling, by hand if you can believe it.

The finish is clean just got a bit of dust and (grrr) cat hair in the shot

The lettering is fantastic. I wish I could do that by hand.

Man, that is a steady hand. Must have been a good brush too for that kind of definition for the small size it is. Nice!

Nope just freehand, she has a lot of experience in graphic design (digital and by hand) and art
