good tip. this one wasn't on my radar but I TOTALLY dig the "build the classics" mentality. at least a third of my builds have been driven by "let's find the magic in this popular circuit." every time I love a pedal or feel meh about it (haven't hated anything so far) I learn about the circuit...

priorities!

that's dope! what transistors does it use? curious where the clipping is, and where each of the TL074 opamps is used.

similarly I approached this as a chill and fun exercise to give people ideas to try stuff outside their comfort zone and to surface sleeper hits. lots of great ideas here!

my hydra board just arrived so the landscape may shift! fwiw I was 💯 % underwhelmed by the thermionic distortion. to the point where I feel like I missed something; maybe I'll post some samples. for context, my first build was a rat, and I'm in love with that distortion flavor. so this may...

hehehe, my logic was that i didn't explain why i liked the honorable mentions. you called me on my BS lolol.

very dope, this is on my list of builds

it's a good thread for helping people prioritize builds, and maybe to try something that wouldn't have otherwise. I wouldn't have looked at the Nutty fuzz otherwise! I also like hearing why people love the one that they do.

for "normal," 800ms for "normal ambient," at least 1.2 sec mostly arbitrary so ymmv

hmmm so this is a very tough choice, but I do have some thoughts after about 40 builds. -duocast, my favorite pedal. it just sounds awesome, my go-to for a vintage-y tone. -angry Andy - all around great with no bad sounds. heavy as hell but can has lots of lower gain sounds too. -circulator -...

I'll double check if it's B's or C's, now that I think about it I'm not sure. regardless I still love this pedal!!

looks amazing, I'm definitely adding to my build list

This one was a request from a client (admittedly my only one), and while I was skeptical having never played one before, it delivers on a classic light overdrive sound. it can do a clean boost and a gritty drive for your amp or other dirt boxes. I didn't have time to look into mods, but this is...

i got some off amazon in a combo pack, i love this pedal. the bias knob is useful throughout the whole range and you can get a ton of good sounds out of it (like most JHS pedals imo).

lmao same. nice build, i did that exact jack flip the other day on #38. never fails hahaha.

i like to think it's in hibernation hahaha. i will! i know a ton more than when i made that (a month ago), so there's a solution out there. thanks!

i tried to make an acapulco gold on stripboard, it still doesn't work lol. props on getting a much more complicated circuit running! i'll eventually fix it, the super heterodyne receiver is top on the list.

yes i think the pics do it justice! an awesome device.

now that's a pro tip. seen some of those videos on youtube, they're wild.

just used two 2SC1815GR's, sounds awesome.
