    Is there a 'better' MOAB-style pedal out these days?

    Also, I feel the new Marshall pedals just released are quite good. Especially the PPCB Article 59 Overdrive and PPCB Eight Ball Overdrive. They certainly do the Plexi thing. I will also echo others and say the Golden Falk Overdrive is really good. My favorite MIAB.

    Peachtree overdrive germanium mod

    Yep, it would be the BAT41's. Although, I can't imagine it making that much of a difference since the BAT41's are usually used to emulate Ge diodes. The marketing is super vague though. Either way I would just recommend installing some sockets then trying different diodes. Edit: Circuit looks...

    Effects Layouts Hex Trem

    I did not use long leg pots or cut the bezel. I seem to remember it was a bit tight but Im pretty sure wasnt too bad.

    Tyco Brahe Ocavia Diode Lift Mod

    Thanks for the response. I'm still having a tough time wrapping my head around. Could I take a wire from G1 to one of the lugs on the SPST and the other lug to ground?

    Tyco Brahe Ocavia Diode Lift Mod

    I think so.... Is that fully removing the diodes (octave) from the circuit? And from that, looks like it's break connection on the anode side of the diode?

    Tyco Brahe Ocavia Diode Lift Mod

    So, im trying to figure out how to add the diode lift switch to this Octavia vero layout, Ala Fulltone Octafuzz. Can I leave the diodes on the board or should I take them offboard? Looks like the cathode of both diodes are going to lug 3 of the volume pot. Just unsure of how to wire the switch...

    Double Muffin Drill Template

    @Robert since no docs up yet, is there a current drill template I can use for the Double Muffin? Does the Dream Fuzz work for it?

    PedalPCB did release some killer boards this year. This is my top 5 PPCB of boards released in 2025 that I've built. (In no order) 5. Eight Ball Overdrive. I think Marshall did a nice job with their latest offering of emulation pedals. I really liked the Eight Ball and the Article 59. Did not...

    Aion FX Straylight

    You probably could be able to fit everything in the BB2 if you lay the electrolytics down. Some you can even install on the underside. It won't be as easy but should work. The light box is pretty high so you may be able to get away with removing the top and even putting tape over it. This is the...
