    Suboctave Pedals

    All great suggestions! I do have a couple of wah enclosures, and I'm pretty sure I've got all those components for the Pompei in spares.... And just for the laughs, this is the artist in question. Yes, that is a full size pedalboard attached to his bass.

    Suboctave Pedals

    I've built an 8 Bitar from them, and not super impressed with the PCB or documentation really. It could also be influenced by the fact it took 14 weeks to show up. Would rather stick with PedalPCB or similar companies

    Suboctave Pedals

    Howdy, Doing some fundraiser builds for somebody in my extended friends circle dealing with cancer, and the artist doing all the artwork for the builds really enjoys glitchy/super wild sounds (he owns a bass with a pedalboard literally built into it). I suggested we go for a suboctave build...

    Schottky BAT47: equivalent?

    47's have been obselete for a while, but almost any schottky will work in this position. 1N5817 1N5818 1N5819 1N6263 (15mA max continuous) 1N5820 1N5821 1N5822 BAT41 BAT46 Etc

    Tear Jerker Wah

    Had a couple of wah enclosures sitting around that I've been slowly rebuilding for a while. Had a couple of days off over Xmas and finally decided what I wanted to do with one, and I think it turned out pretty well. This was a test to see how laser cut bamboo would work for pedal enclosures...

    C2CElectronics Black Eye

    Pretty nice. Not amazingly high gain, but on that spectrum. Tone controls are surprisingly versatile too. I don't have the exact values or parts on me, but I used a very low ESR filter cap, an inductor with a much higher current rating (as there's already something like 1.5A going through...

    C2CElectronics Black Eye

    Had a guy bugging me for weeks about building him a tube preamp/distortion pedal, and to my absolute shock he actually paid once I steered him towards this! Using one of the C2CE PCB's, and a pair of Shuguang 7025s (probably the best new, non-stupidly priced 12A*7 variants I've found). B+ is...

    PedalPCB Disarray

    It's not low gain, but nowhere near as high as I was expecting. Sounds pretty nice - not really my thing, but the recipient is super stoked

    PedalPCB Disarray

    Super simple build report here. Friends son recently found out they're headlining a local festival, and decided to make him something to celebrate. Nothing too fancy, and he likes flames so had to include a couple for good luck. Very straight forward build, ended up just using schottkys instead...

    Scientific Guitarist Riptide

    Dressed. Turned out nice

    Almost Black Enough Obsidius Build

    I did hit it with a clear that sort of ruined the contrast, but black on black is definitely a winner

    Beatle Juice Fuzz

    Not perfect, but for the first time messing with a Cricut it turned out pretty well!

    Scientific Guitarist Riptide

    If anybody finds this down the track I got it sorted - dropping R15 to 100k increases the bass rolloff at max treble by about 3dB, making the tone control much more emphasized. C22 also needs to be increased to about 100pf to get rid of some of the additional noise. All in all, actually a...

    Scientific Guitarist Riptide

    This was....a build. JFET switching didn't work (PCB/schematic error), got sent the wrong impedance tanks, couple of footprints weren't ideal, LED is annoyingly offset by about 2.5mm, but I've almost got the issues fixed and functioning. The tone control doesn't really do....much? I probably...

    Almost Black Enough Obsidius Build

    Pretty straightforward build - very happy I picked up I needed 1/8w resistors before I purchased. Very annoying the SOT-23 adapter boards weren't also black, but you win some and lose some. Built as a gift for a friend who gives up dozens of hours every year to help us running special needs events.

    Beatle Juice Fuzz

    Just finished. Honestly...not really my thing. Doesn't really give you anything that a million other fuzzes don't already do, and probably better (such as gain control). Not a particularly quiet pedal either. Tried a stack of different diodes, and 1N4007s sounded the best to me, although not...

    Turning PedalPCB Build Docs into Buy Lists

    Howdy, I've seen people post about this on FB/Reddit, so figure of all places here it will probably be useful too. While the build docs are pretty good, it is a bit frustrating not having values/quantities immediately available. I figured out an easy workflow to get them. Download the build...

    Anybody know the drill template for my latest PedalPCB delivery?

    I can only imagine the poor environmentally conscious grandma that was looking forward to.cleaning her teeth, and instead got a large PCB

    Anybody know the drill template for my latest PedalPCB delivery?

    (Yes I'm aware it's just a shipping error, but it is by far the weirdest shipping error I've been a recipient of)
