It all started with an innocent, romantic Lovepedal Eternity and it turned into a Strat-wielding naked Timmy with a dominant streak. Sounds like the schematic for a steamy summer novel. There's money to be made there. Please, do share! 🤑 The HamishR clipping arrangement seems to be working as...

Grazie! Yes, I generally use Tayda to do the UV print for my builds. It's actually cheaper than going with unpainted enclosures and doing my own drilling because it slows things down. Like, a lot. Shipping is either Thai Post + playing the customs roulette for smaller orders or DHL Express for...

Thank you so much, HamishR! And thank you MichaelW for your input (and for guiding me further down the same rabbit hole 🥲). What I learned so far is that while the timmy is useful for stacking with other pedals, the jan ray instantly loses what I perceive as its jan rayness when coupled with...

I think my addiction has an addiction. By now, for various unfortunate reasons, the number of timmy & friends I have built and given away is in the double digits. The more I research the difference between the Timmy and the Jan Ray, the less things make sense. To make things make more sense...

Thanks a lot, your suggestion led me to a ton of useful information on the subject. I will definitely try adding more diodes.

Compared to my previous Jan Ray build this Timmy sounds more "focused" and slightly less "shimmery". Feels more like a tone shaping tool than a magic harmonics-infusing artifact. Which makes no sense, obviously. I wonder why the components and pots are so spaced apart on the pcb compared to the...

Verily, the iron cast appears to be a much more logical choice being an insanely overpriced japanese pedal as well. Into the shopping cart it goes!

This time I tried my hand at drilling the holes with a step bit. An interesting experience, but doing it on a pre-painted enclosure is not optimal I guess. Despite using a center punch and pilot hole the end result is not precise enough. Relaxing build, anyway. I like the way it sounds, even...

I had great fun researching and building this one. The new board design does an even better job at fueling your ADHD by not including any documentation as an added challenge. I loved it. I decided to include R8 by flipping a coin and I used an A1M drive pot instead of an A500K, trusting the...

This is the companion to the Genmaicha Overdrive, so most of the considerations I made for that one apply in this case. On paper, this one is supposed to work better with single coils. I guess. I just know it sounds more usable out of the.. uhm.. box than the Genmaicha. The tone and tea...

I obviously felt compelled to build this one. I have no idea what's supposed to sound like, except that if I had to design this I would make it marshally and humbucker-friendly. This build sounds really dark, like, REALLY dark. I first asked my local guitar jedi master for help testing it. We...

Thanks a lot, Feral Feline! "R3 is labeled as a gain control, however you’ll notice that it changes the tonality depending on its setting. This is because it is changing the frequency response of the opamp at the same time. With the gain control all the way up it only clips frequencies 723hz...

beat me to it 🤭 when you do, you know what to do. Great job, by the way. I really want to build a double overdrive, even though I think singles make more sense in general.

Great, looking forward to it! I'll probably do more like this myself, à la Guardians of the Analog. There's something soothing about anime aesthetics, even knowing what's behind it in cultural and psychological terms. The same goes for the related J-pop genre, which is part of the same industry...

Nope, that would have been quite ordinary. Instead you can tell the situation is serious when someone from italy carefully picks the spell "Power Word: Kurwa" from his grimoire. Besides, being italian helps with rolling the R. You gotta roll the R for at least 2-3 seconds to get the magic going...

Dzięki, man. With this I just expanded my polish vocabulary to two words. Two very powerful words. :LOL:

Thank you, the honeycomb should have been darker to offset the "heavy" part below, but the color I picked was a shot in the dark, based on the pantone color specified by Tayda for their grey color. Maybe it's better like this after all. I guess I'll ask for help in the aforementioned thread...

First custom Tayda drilling and UV printing for my first AionFX build. All in all I'm pretty happy with the results, thanks to the people from the Tayda UV Printing thread and to Hugo & co. for their precision with all the drilling and layering. The build itself is simple, but it requires some...

Third build, some kind of modded bluesbreaker. After reading up on the topic I chose the blue channel of the protein pedal because... yes. I can't even remember why. It must have looked like a good idea at the time. One thing I remember is @spi describing it as "excessively loud and shrill"...

It seems that all that's aligned has died And is rotating with me (Will you give in to me?) It seems you're having some trouble In dealing with these angles Living with these angles Oh no, the world is a scary place Now that you've noticed I'm slightly askew Get up, come on get down with the...
