Drive Like Jehu is one of my all-time favorite bands and when I saw Way Huge had made a limited edition Jehu Drive combining their two best drive circuits (Rhino and Llama) into a limited edition enclosure and named it Jehu Drive, I knew I needed to make one of my own. I used two AionFX boards...

The build was actually really easy but waiting for Tayda was hard. I went with a matte army green and the chunky knobs to make it feel like a Big Muff. I threw in some Russian NOS Ge transistors and Russian Ge diode as well. Overall it's a Big Muff with a wide range of "toans" as they say and it...

Way back when @MattG posted his original build of this, I asked for a PCB of it which he graciously sent to me. After getting all the parts, it went together very quickly which is awesome but I dilly dallied on the faceplate and getting an enclosure for it... thanks to life and work getting in...

So, I love the idea of the Pro Filter but wanted to also send each filter to its own output to run multiple effects in parallel for each section of the filter so I could mix it back down later... As such, here it is in all its hacky glory. I added a 330nf cap off of the 3 pin of each filter...

I've built the Pro-Filter PCB and love it but want to additionally send each filter's output to a different mono output. I was going to tap each filter at pin 3 of the potentiometer and use a film capacitor (220n?) to output jack and then ground the jack to the dc jack. Should I worry about the...

I've been messing around with the TAPFLO3D chip for running PT2399 delays and decided I really wanted to just build an old school 12 stage optical phaser that is a blend of the Compact Phasing A with a TAPFLO3D to drive the LEDs or bulbs (haven't decided yet) and running the op amps at +/-9v. To...

Here's a few builds that I finally got the cases for... Parentheses Fuzz I followed the build guide except I used some Russian D9K diodes and went with the rotary switch for the clipping options. As for the case, I kept waffling on the art I wanted to use and decided to go with a white out...

After seeing a request for an unreleased DOD / Devi Ever collaboration pedal and looking into it I decided to go ahead and use it as a learning exercise to move off of EasyEDA and into KiCAD for my PCB designs. Plus, I'm a huge fan of fuzz pedals, so it made a lot of sense in my mind. The...

I've been on a modulation pedal kick recently, so a phaser and vibrato in one pedal? Definitely a must build. Like the Honey Coma, it's a straight forward build with a lot of room. I got the faceplate, cause, well, why not? I like the mildly depressive images they're using on the flip side of...

I've seen one other post about this fuzz and it piqued my interest, so I ordered it. It's a really quick build and a joy to put together. The parts count is pretty low but I did run out of 1uF electrolytics so I used some tantalums instead. It is a cool sounding fuzz. It's even more fun when...

After seeing the DOD Grindhaus Fuzz show up in the wish list section and reading up on it and figured I'd make a version of it. I based it off of the Hype Fuzz from FuzzDog, tossed in the Big Muff tone stack (with the ability to bypass), and then the make up boost as seen in the DOD Grindhaus...

Built this from a Guitar PCB Mania PCB since PedalPCB didn't have a board available. It was a straightforward build but it barely fits in a 1590BB. Overall it sounds like the real thing and is a lot of fun to play. I'm giving it a 4/5 cause making it fit in the case is a total pain. Went with a...

This was a rather fun build..I had to order a bunch of 1/8w resistors to do this one (I also built the Schu-tone DM-3 at the same time) and then fiddle with the offboard wiring and toggle switch to get the vibe mod into it. I've been listening to The White Stripes recently so their asthetic...

Over in the builds section, it was mentioned we needed a thread for DeadEnd FX project build templates. So, who has some Tayda Drill Templates they are willing to share for their projects? I've got a few of the Last Gasp Arts Labs PCBs that I'll be building soon, so if anyone has some templates...

I had some super low gain NPN MP38 Ge transistors and figured I'd throw them in the Cross Contaminator build. I was going to go with a Dia de Los Muertes theme initially to play into the EQD reissue but my daughter saw me looking for artwork and told me the pedal needed a dragon breathing...

I built this one using some GT310B transistors I had purchased while building @PedalBuilder's Polaris. Following the whole space theme, I named it Voskhod after the Russian spacecraft for orbital flight. This build went together really quickly and it's a nice Fuzz Face. I highly recommend...

After some screw ups on my part with the EV Mini, it worked marvelously. (Note to self: just because you sorted resistors correctly doesn't mean you still can't screw it up, so always double check their values before soldering). You can find some gut shots here. Then I got around to building...

I am currently wrapping up an ElectrVibe Mini build and ran into the problem with the LFO not starting up. I can manually cause the bulb to increase in intensity via the gain and bias knobs and hear a change in the tone (as you'd expect in a Vibe), so I know the rest of the circuit works. It is...

A really great build. I built two of them. One for me and one for a friend. I didn't deviate from @PedalBuilder 's design because I thought it was really awesome -- all I did was tweak the colors and gains on Q1, 2, and 3. They are both using the highest gain GT310b transistors that I had, so in...

This is a pedal I want to like but, it just doesn't do too much for me. However, the pedal itself just screamed Mooninites so I went with that as the theme. I even made sure to name the controls in a condescending Mooninites manner. I enjoyed the building of the pedal and the designing but when...
