I agree about C2 being a good place to address the boominess. That value changed a fair but from the early MkIII to later MkIV versions, like 47uf down to 220n if I remember correctly. At that point the sound was getting smoother and a bit distortion like, almost presaging the Rat, etc. Judging...

I was curious to see a build report for this too! I only have a single coil guitar so probably won't build this one, but like how the FLB line is themed around classic Seattle tones. If anyone has suggestions on another one to try, would love to hear it. Agree about the Cantrell tones (love his...

Love the Twin Peaks reference! Nice choice on the 2n1305. I've used those in TB MkIII and Fuzz Face builds and they are great. I have a completed MkI I need to box at some point soon. I tested it with a wah in front and it sounds amazing!

I've seen SD-1 into a JCM-800 in many a live setting and it kills every time! Best of luck as you step away for now...

Those knobs are amazing! Exactly what I would want for an HM-2 build. Glad you persevered on it!

First off, major thanks to Blackhatboojum for sharing this board with me! I got the itch to do a wah just after the MBP Weener went out of stock a while back. I had been modding this old Crybaby I picked up but realized the jacks weren't going to last much longer. So this incorporates what I...

Sounds like it's got some highly effective controls if you have to dial them that far back in most cases! Love those knobs--used the same ones on a Screwdriver clone I did many years ago. The woodgrain rules! '70s station wagon vibes for the win.

I noticed storyboardist's PCB of this being available and then remembered GOTA's build report. Then I went down the rabbit hole a couple of days ago listening to demoes of the original pedals. It does sound good to my ears! Can't say I'll get around to building one anytime soon, but glad to see...

Yes it is! It definitely straddles the line between MkIV and Muff, with one foot more on either side of the line depending on how you set the tone knob. I was surprised at the volume know cleanup as well.

I built an FZ-673 on vero one time and was also not happy with the sound (way too dark), even though my transistor selection seemed to work. I got a clue as to what may be going on when I ran another pedal (an EQD Disaster Transport) after it. The FZ-673 went way brighter and more MkI/Zonk-like...

I love this! That enclosure looks like the old Vox MkIII or Rotosound Fuzz-style.

Oh wow! I have not had time to get mine built up yet but now feel more than inspired to do so since yours is so cool!

Thanks for sharing those pictures! I will check that place out when I go back. Those 1n60 diodes with the two stripes are the same ones I used in a klone...

Oh man, I was just there earlier this month but did not get time to dig around those electronics stores in Akihabara! My daughters wanted to go in all these anime-themed stores and I did not make it back. That will be rectified next year when one of them does a study abroad and we go visit. By...

I love this! My family and I were just in Japan and the Tokyo National Museum was amazing, so I hear you on Hokusai.

Glad you got to build one of these too! I love mine. It's definitely more so what I was looking for with a chorus. Like you, I prefer mine to come after delay. I think it will sound great with the DM-3!

Yep, I did mine in a 1590Q as well and am glad I did. I still play it all the time! Will have to try out the setting you have in the picture there. Here's a setting for one of the best chorus sounds I've heard: manual and range at 9:00, speed at 3:00, and enhance at 12:00 or less.

Oh this is a beauty...I had my Mouser cart for my DM-3 board just about ready when a bunch of crap went out of stock! Especially the trimmers. Oh well, I'll throw the parts for another project or two in there and sit tight I guess...

This looks great! I've built both the "stock" version and the Albini as well. They're both great, but the standard one sounds more like I expected the circuit to sounds.

I've definitely been wanting to build an Ibanez delay circuit but grabbed the DM-3 board because it was the closest available. Now I see you're doing the whole 9 series! Love that.
