Production update:
Boards should be ready soon and shipping to me. Once I have them in hand, I'll probably need two or three days to sort and pack all the orders. For US builders, I've already got the shipping boxes ready to go in an effort to minimize turnaround time. For builders outside the US, your pcbs will go to Kevin at Link Audio Design for subsequent distribution, and you should expect a small additional lead time.

On another note, I'm seeing some muddying of the waters across the various threads that have a relation to this project (as well as in some PMs), so I think it bears a bit of clarification for anyone who might be feeling confused:
This thread is where questions about PCBs and the actual build process should go. For now, I am the only person who can provide any answers about the PCBs. Feel free to ask! I'm trying to keep this thread updated as things move along as well. If you haven't already, please see the first post for BOM, schematic, and some preliminary build notes.
For US builders only,
nielsk's group buy thread (which I believe is closed at time of writing) is where questions about, well, that group buy should go. PCBs are not included in it, so nielsk should not be expected to answer questions about their production schedule, etc. It was created so that US builders could get the parts that need to come from Europe without paying exorbitant shipping.
And finally,
Potato Cakes' group buy for the 3-deck Grayhill switches is a great solution for the two gain switches needed for this project. HOWEVER, please be sure to look carefully at posts #3 & 4 in that thread, as these are not plug-and-play for our purposes, and they require a small amount of extra tweaking to function correctly in this build. Anyone who has taken apart a Grayhill before will likely agree, it's not too bad if you work slowly and methodically, but you have to be willing to actually do that.
EDIT: Potato Cakes group buy is also now closed
