    What is your favorite "Big Muff" circuit, and why?

    Any one which has a modded tone control to be flat or with a sight mid boost. I just hate playing in a band with the stock mid scoop tone control. You disappear.....

    Help choosing versatile distortion! (for drums, synths etc)

    I love running my clav, organ and synths through a silicone tone bender I made. It cleans up well and adds character. But I think if you're just recording there are great free tape distortion vst plugins. I love my dod 250 as well. I've used bullet mics for distorted drums and have reamped...

    [Vero] ProCo RAT

    I always like to check what new pedals sound like online and compare them to my new builds. I've done similar things in the past and had pedals not working the way they should be. Can make a big difference.

    Jack Orman's Pickup Simulator / Anti-Buffer...

    I don't think you'd even need to bother with a board on this. Just hook up the wires. I've done basically the same thing with old unused guitar pickups.

    Boost pedal i built. Finding best Potentiometer rating! HELP!

    Usually a higher pot resistance or taper type would fix that. So it makes me wonder if there is a mistake somewhere else. Got a schematic and pictures?

    Super 64 build. Does it Supro?!

    Always wanted to build the runoffgrove version. Friend of mine built it. Sounds great.

    Recommend me a pedal to sound like Tool

    Does he have a flanger?

    Favorite bass overdrive circuit?

    That's a great one. I like the bass bb for guitar too. Sansamp is great and my go to in the studio. Rats and fuzzes are great

    Frantone peach fuzz? One of my favorite fuzzes

    SOLVED Mini heterodyne receiver is very loud

    You can squeeze it in on the bottom sides and not put a job on it. Keeps it out of the way and it's harder to move by bumping it.

    SOLVED Mini heterodyne receiver is very loud

    A trim pot or just add a pot from the output, center lug to the output jack, last lug to ground. I added one to my mini. It's a big help.

    How bad are they really? Talk me out of PCB Guitar Mania

    I built a seek trem clone from them. It was fine but the pots should have been installed on the opposite side. No mention of it in the instructions. So the thing runs with pots turning the opposite direction and the LEDs light from right to left. Also I ended up wiring a single foot switch...

    DEMO S.M.P.T.E. — a love letter to Frank Zappa & the Systech Harmonic Energizer

    Nice work. One of my all time favorite pedals. Great for solos or cocked wah.

    Ernie Ball VPJR Expression Mod…

    1. Does the pedal work as a volume pedal now? 2. What type of pot did you use? Linear or audio taper? 3. Are you positive you rewound the string inside correctly? I think you wound it backwards and perhaps not tight enough. Please follow this video . You really need a hook! Yes, there is...

    What Big Muff should I build next?

    Build a peach fuzz and you'll stop using muffs. Ha. At least I did.

    Are there many JHS stompboxes based on other circuits from the diy community ?

    Ha that's my YouTube account. Funny. I've had a cordial email back and forth since yesterday with Josh. I'm hoping he ends up doing a show on diy builders. I'll hand it to him for at least contacting me.

    Are there many JHS stompboxes based on other circuits from the diy community ?

    I guess at the end of the day, I just wish there was more transparency which would help uphold builder's ethics and really help the consumer make better choices. There's no shame in redoing old work.

    SOLVED Aion tight metal issue

    Are you positive you didn't put it in backwards? That would be my guess. Usually the line is where the stripe end goes. Not totally sure what's it's purpose is. Reverse voltage protection?

    Haarp build with modes notated

    She was a success. Fun pedal to get lost in. I tried my best to notate the modes and the scales or patterns based on a c note being played, if it helps anyone.

    Organ donor success.

    Finished this and a haarp in 4 hours flat. New record. Easy straight forward build. Love the sound. Always wanted a POG, but this gets pretty close and tracks better than my digitech whammy pedal. The quirks that make it sound like an organ is an extra bonus. One of my bands has a tune...
