Just throwing this out there, but the Hyped Fuzz is also based off the Super Fuzz but with an active treble and bass as well as a tone switch that chooses between scooped and full range, which in turn seems more similar to that Eisenhower fuzz. It might be worth looking into.

Man, that etch looks sweet! Love the texture in that print.

These are fantastic! I love the design choices. Simple yet elegant. The lighter orange is enclosure is a cool color. How'd you come about that one? Man I really want posca pens. Any tips for using the pens?

I asked the same question here after building mine. I also think it sounds better with the charge pump out. I believe it actually runs even lower than 9v with it out, like a tad over 7v. Sounded great that way.

Yep. That's how I use my DIY test box if it helps

One of my top favorite fuzz circuits from here even though I don't play as heavy as this thing puts out. It's so gnarly. The active tone stack is just so useful and fun. Your design is flawlessly executed and the wiring is crazy clean. So well done. I named mine something similar. Great minds...?

Some do, some don't, it's weird. But I like a bit of intrigue in my life :)

I too have a big pile of em, but I just stuck a piece of masking tape and wrote was each are. I share your sentiment though as I've been at a loss once or twice until I just searched through my order list. One thing that works is when you're on the main page, search the SKU that is printed on...

Flippin beautiful!

Once you sort out that pot, I'd definitely second recommendation of insulating the back of the pots from the board for future builds. Of course, dust covers are the best option, but there are other choices...sticking on a rubber foot, a piece of heavy cardstock, etc... If you use electrical...

as far as I know, Vero is just the trademarked name for stripboard. They are one and the same

I've had power jacks fail but never gradually, they would just intermittently short out. How about some clear photos of the top and bottom of the board and wiring?

I think those are called "vias" and they connect the top to bottom of certain parts of double-sided PCB circuits. Just don't try to jam anything in em and you'll be fine :D

That looks fantastic! Man, that's definitely not the first time you've been the first to build new releases. Impressive.

Shoot, I have 2 amps and they're both Fender, but the Chickenhead (Red Rooster) is my favorite sounding pedal I've made from here. Now I want to know why it would sound better through something else. Granted, one of them is a modified DIY Vibrolux with a unique "raw" control that makes is sound...

I feel ya. I tend to appreciate subtlety or understated aesthetic design choices. You know, with that history of yours, now I want to see what you could come up with...for labeling what the knobs do, haha. I dropped out of art school 25 years ago but it was always my dream as a wee one to have a...

Cool, I don't have the technical know-how to help debug anything but the only thing I can suggest is to try to work on getting smooth shiny peaks on all pads. Without knowing what you used, here's a few cents worth of info I picked up that has improved my consistency...If any joint/pad ever...

Couple questions... 1. What iron are you using? Does it have a temperature setting? If so, what temp? 2. What tip is on the iron? 2. What solder diameter and type are you using? 60/40, 63/37, etc... Reason I ask is because I'm seeing a lot of what looks like cold solder joints as well as the...

Old film posters (Criterion collection is a good example, also google "Polish film posters") and LP's of artists that might use said pedal are always inspiring for me. If I find a typeface I like I make a note of it in a doc I have. A huge helper is whatthefont.com. It finds similar or exact...

I have a drawer with around 50 DC jacks in it and went through em all and threw out all the fakes, maybe 10 or so. I just feel bad for the people I sold early pedals to. Just for peace of mind, I stopped buying offboard stuff from Tayda alltogether. Love My Switches is where I get offboard now...
