you don't recognize "style"? :ROFLMAO: Actually there's a method to the madness, for level and gain I prefer knobs that have pointer shape so I can tell at a glance what the settings are. EQ knobs are usually "set and forget" for me. So they can be round. If there's a "special" control like...

I love it. Build Report

I'll have the pull out the Chop Shop and see how they stack. I'm not surprised if it didn't sound great. The Narcissus has a lot of trebles and a natural mid scoop. You have to push the mids knob a bit then dial out the inherent presence with the treble control and filter knob. The filter knob...

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...

No, those were from SmallBear, I think they still have them. They claim they were overruns from enclosures they were making for AnalogMan. It looks pretty close to what they use for the Beano Boost. I haven't tried the Tayda White hammer yet but will probably grab a couple on my next order...

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...

I'm working on a project with Sheepy that might scratch that itch......

Nope, this is one of @Robert 's older boards before he started adding pads.

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...

Not to derail your thread again Rene, but I'll second the "BassDude" as an excellent guitar pedal. I use it for bass too on the very very few times I pick up a bass. It's based on the 5B6 Tweed Bassman. So sort of a proto-proto-JTM if you will. Great tweed cleans and breakup. Also, great pedal...

I've always felt this was a good pedal thats about 90% there. The "Q'Lo/Hi" toggle needs to be a pot and I always wish I could dial in the frequency I'm boosting a bit more. The other one that (to me) is not fully baked is the VarioBoost. (Otherwise known as the @peccary boost hahah) Maybe I'm...

Well it's a cool pedal but not a MUST BUILD. You can get most of the sounds from a stock Rat, tbh.

Sorry......got distracted.......

Well lemme know how the Revv works for you. This is my second go around with the Muzzle. First one I f*cking put the LT1054 in backwards. When the THAT4305 module started smoking I knew something was wrong.......heh. I fried the module and the charge pump and I threw out the TL072 just for...

@DGWVI I have the Revv G8 (gifted to me by @Robert so I'm sure its the one he traced 4 years ago hahaha) I just set it all up 4 cable method in my sprawling rig with 40-45 pedals in my signal chain. It's damn impressive. Super transparent and doesn't mess with the signal dynamics. You and I...

I'm working my way slowly back to doing demos.....

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...

Of course it makes a difference and thats why mojo parts are ALWAYS better!! Hahaha. I'll pop some different opamps in it today and check.

The Quad JRC3404 opamp sounds different from the JRC4558 version. Some would say "Better", however I would say "different". They're both great historic overdrives. @cooder you need both.....:)
