All Hail Fig

[BuddytheReow]

I've had this in a bare enclosure since last year. It's been on and off my board for a while now.

For those that are relatively new to the forum, Fig was a cool dude that really wanted to be a part of this community. We miss him. Hope he's rocking in his retirement.

Anywhoo, here's another Figbuster. Enclosure is very much a tribute to him. Was a bit too cold for the rattle can, but I kind of like it. Happy accident I guess. This goes from light drive to fuzzy toans and colors the sound nicely in front of my amp. Would recommend. There are gerber files floating around here if interested. A part of PPCB history indeed!

Fig was very much part of what makes this community great. The legacy lives on! (And it's a great pedal)

 

[swelchy]

I have some figbusters boards I had made from the files... I need to build one out. Maybe this weekends project since it's gonna be rainy again. I hope Fig is doing well.

HOT DAMN!

VIVA FIG!

AWESOME TRIBUTE to FIG and there's so much PPCB-FORUM DNA all throughout that pedal !

(for example some very @jjjimi84-esque lettering and art...)​

Amazerballz, BtR! Tip-top-notch build and build-report thread.


To put it in some forum parlance — This pedal fornicates so F^@%¡₦& hard!




Fig is a cool dude that was/is a really BIG part of this community. Whole lotta , in fact he was ALL

@fig, you are truly missed here.

Now I'm going to go build something... before ...

I was absent from the forum for a long while and came back to no Fig and was really sad.

His contests (I even won one), sense of humor, encouragement and all around wholesomeness really made this forum a special part of the internet.
It still is.

Here's to you, @fig!

I haven't been around long enough to know of Fig. But im fascinated to put this circuit on a breadboard. Google didn't turn one up. Could someone point me the right way?

Shhh Josh Scott might hear you (aka Mr. Slugworth of the pedal world). He’s been trying to get his hands on the everlasting figbuster for years.

 

[Morbidpale]

Thank you thank you. Looks like fun.

 

[Feral Feline]

Can't get enough of that sugar FigBuster...

 

[jjjimi84]

What a great looking pedal!

I made this for @fig when he said he never played a timmy before.

Google provides great images, doesn't it @jjjimi84

It is the inspiration machine.

You did a better job than I did. Quite the steady hands you've got!
