I've seen at least one build report for this already so I know I'm not the first. This was in a dump of Gerber's from @szukalski, he said it's his favorite EQ pedal, so of course I HAD to build it! :) The circuit is an original circuit designed by dylan159 from FSB and I think Dave has a...

Ok, when I typed in "biggus" in the title I got a lot of responses of a more vulgar "Biggus" pedals hahaha. This is @MattG's Gigantic Sauce Container PCB that he was so kind to send me. Based on the Way Huge Saucy overdrive that I had never heard of. It's very rare for me to build an overdrive...

I built this one a few months ago and I was sitting on the fence about posting a build report because it was so ugly. But, I decided to show my true self, warts and all. hahaha. This is another board I bought years ago during a shopping spree. Must have been a sale or something... :p...

Build report #2 for today. I bought this PCB from @Robert during one of my shopping sprees then couldn't remember why I got it. hahah. It sat in my pile of boards for over 2 years. A few months ago I was looking at it and watched a few more demo's and decided to build it. I don't know why...

I hope I'm not overwhelming everyone with my build report posts that have been coming in fast. I'm catching up on a year's worth of builds that I didn't post while I was getting my cancer treatment. I had enough energy to build but not enough to post or demo. This is one that Sheepy...

This is another board that @Audandash sent me recently. I've built @Robert's version of this before and also built the Clark Gainster on the same board. The Gainster leans more heavily towards a TS808 where the Red Snapper leans a bit more towards the Boss SD-1. On this version I used SD-1...

This one's a real sleeper. Don't see a lot of build posts about. I have to admit I bought this board during one of my "half asleep in bed with an iPad in my hands" shopping sprees a few years ago. Then I sat on the board for years thinking I wouldn't like it because it was too high gain. Well...

Continuing with the theme of obscure overdrives, this is a board that my buddy @Audandash sent me in a care package a few weeks ago. @aion has an excellent write up and tracing journal on this pedal. Aion has it as their "Heliosphere" overdrive. Quick history, these were hand built by Robert...

So I'm late to the party with my build report as you've probably seen a few of these builds. Another gift from my pal @Guardians of the analog. I know he's been working on this project for a long time, but it seems like as soon as he brought @dan.schumaker onto the project it got done lickity...

Here's another one I had never heard of but @Guardians of the analog thought it would be right up my alley when he gifted me this board. And he was spot on! I've really been on a roll with early, obscure, Japanese overdrives (a few more build reports to come) and the Mostortion kinda fits...

Man, just perusing the build reports today and so many really talented folks on the forum doing their own PCB's and graphics. I feel like a dinosaur..........:ROFLMAO: Anyway, here's another really cool pedal. The JCM800 from Marshall's recent series. It sounds surprisingly authentic. Feel...

This is another pedal I had never heard of until it became available as PPCB "Flank" Distortion. When I went to go do some research about it I found out that it had been discontinued but used prices were like up near $1000 on Reverb😳. That got me interested in building it even though I didn't...

Another killer Sheepy Love layout from my best Kiwi buddy @szukalski ! I've been looking for a board for a plain Jane vintage Tube screamer. I came across AionFX's "Stratosphere" project which is a Narrow Box Maxon/Ibanez TS808. This version was only produced for a short time before...

I thought about piggy backing on @Guardians of the analog's build report but then thought better of it, hahaha. Here's my version of the same board. (Thanks Chris!) It's about as vintage of an OD-1 as you can get. My other OD-1 is the PPCB "Oddity" which is a later version of the OD-1 with the...

Back to overdrives. I've been on an uber vintage kick with overdrives lately and really digging some of the early proto-TS808 type pedals. The Boss OD-1 is one that I have been really enjoying and I'm looking forward to building the GOTA/Sheepy love edition......maybe later today:) So what...

Ok, here we go again......on another roll with compressors! I'm also waiting for @Robert to get the Uber-Squeezer boards in. (Actually I don't think thats what it's called but its the PPCB of the MXR SuperComp:)) The Aion Meridian is another compressor that I never got around to building...

Some of you know that have a penchant for building overdrives and a close second would be compressors. I think I've built just about every DIY compressor I can get my hands on. The Creamery is one that I've wanted to build for a long time but it was out of stock and @Robert was in no hurry to...

Hey all, It's been a while since I posted a build report! I've had this 1590A enclosure since I started building back in 2022. I've just never had anything to put in it. And I never could crack the code on doing top jacks on it without major surgery to the enclosure. Big shout out to...

.....no not anything I've caught recently heh. I haven't been on the water all year. I have a Minnow board that's been sitting in my stash. I'm considering building it out if it does what I want it to. I don't care so much about the envelope filter as I already have the CDXL Reissue and I like...

I've been steadily adding builds to the arsenal albeit it at a much slower rate, I just have not been super inspired to post or record any demos. Yet many of these builds deserve demos. So I wind up in a constant state of procrastination hahaha. Here's one that I won't be demoing because it's...
