    Acer (Altero Kaede build)

    i was having problems with this one making no sound but it turns out that i had a defective NE5532 in my inventory. It works perfect and sounds great now. I used a 1590B2 for the enclosure. here's some pics of it:

    Aion Perelandra Deluxe (Xotic BB Preamp Mid Boost)

    after building both, IMO, the Perelandra deluxe sounds a ton better than the Perelandra.

    War Scythe: "Butcherbird Fuzz"

    i etched my own pcbs and enclosure for one of those before anyone released a pcb for it and it came out pretty nice: a pre-fabbed PCB would have made it ALOT easier.

    Bombastortion #2

    i just finished my second build of the Bombastotion and i think that this one came out even better than the first one. I used ALL Wima film caps in this one. here's some pics of it: ..... and the gut shot:

    Xotic BB Deluxe Bass build

    i used the bass mods from their Perelandra bass values. it's just a standard pedalpcb non latching bypass: https://www.pedalpcb.com/product/pcb393/

    Elk Super Fuzz Sustainar (Japanese Big Muff clone)

    it's not Muriatic acid. it's much less caustic. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002ELAMUG?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_5 i takes about 15 minutes to etch it that deep.

    Elk Super Fuzz Sustainar (Japanese Big Muff clone)

    i flatten the enclosure on a tabletop belt sander, then smooth them with a handheld Bosch orbital sander with 220, then 320 grit. bock them with 400 wet sand paper, and then buff them with a buffing wheel to remove and scratches. then i mask them with a reverse mask created in photoshop onto...

    Elk Super Fuzz Sustainar (Japanese Big Muff clone)

    years ago i etched my own PCB for a an Elk Fuzz Sustainar and it looks like this: gut shot: i also recently built an Earthquaker Hizumitas fuzz which is the same circiut and also added the mids switch to it, calling it the "Hizumitas +":

    Old but really cool build

    Way back in 2016, since i always loved the sound of an Acoustic 370 head, i decided to build an exact clone of the preamp of it in pedal form. It took me along time to design and etch the multiple PCBs for it and build one for myself. Fortunately, I had all of the original transistors for it...

    Aion Perelandra Deluxe (Xotic BB Preamp Mid Boost)

    i built the Bass BB version on AION's Perelandra (twice!) and compared them to my original Xotic Bass BB and it doesn't really sound as good or really anything like it. it doesn't have anywhere near as much gain (distortion) and it's a lot brighter sounding. on the original with the treble and...

    Back In Stock Updates

    A Sunn 200s was probably my favorite sounding bass amp. that one shouldn't be too hard in pedal form either.
