    Catalinbread Varioboost (Custom PCB)

    All is right with the world now: I replaced the DC jack that was touching that middle pot with an "outie". It still took a little wrangling to get it all in there. But at least now there's a noticeable air gap between the DC jack and the middle pot. I also took the opportunity to give the...

    What are the pedals every guitarist must have?

    DEMO Eight Ball Overdrive

    That demo’s coming at me like a dog in heat! Eh, what do I know, I’m just another white man with a sick and empty head. But for real, great build and great demo! Thanks for sharing!

    Shrinking a Boss SD-1 SMD pedal

    What are you doing with the SD-1 enclosure? If it’s looking for a new home, I’ll take it off your hands!

    PedalPCB Pipestetcher

    That looks great! You might also consider giving Chuck's Tube Bender Deluxe a try. I built one using @szukalski's "Wooden Ewe" PCB. I have spare PCBs, I'm happy to drop one in the mail for ya!
