Figured it was high time to start building muffs. I'm planning to go through chronologically, ergooo - here's my triangle! I had lower gain trannies in at first, but felt a little lifeless - there are BC109s in presently, and they'll rock until I get bored. Tayda UV print on Clear powder...

This sat very nearly finished on my bench for like a month *shakes fist at 120 uf electrolytics* (mind your BOM peoples!), so boxing this one up felt incredddibly satisfying. In the limited amount of time I've had to play around with her, I really dig it! Like, really really dig it.. I...

First and Foremost: I'm 89% sure I ripped off the name "Portafuzz" from someone on here. If anyone knows the OG please drop them here, so I can update this post with due credit. ***update*** This idea came from the beautiful brain of a one @Harry Klippton - thank you doctor!! Now then.. I...

Forgive my naivety - again, I'm a life sciences guy evolving from a pedal-by-numbers place to a hmmm-how-does-this-all-actually-work-and-can-I-learn-to-color-outside-the-lines place.. So thanks in advance for taking a min to read this. Was going to DM the chef de cuisine, a one @BuddytheReow ...

oooooooooh BABY! Look, I dont know if it's because I've been on an accidental fuzz break or what, but hollllllyfuckingshit this sounds AMAZING!!!!!! I was on a streak of modulation effects, then played around with distortions, then some more modulations & it's been a good dozen or so builds...

This is my Hydra. There are many others like it, but this one is mine. I got burnt out on PT2399s, and wanted to dip my toes in the FV-1 waters. Highly recommend this project. A bunch of usable sounds for all styles, but in my brief TIME with her, I think she SHINES brightest doing the...

I can't add much about this circuit, as there's already a wealth of knowledge on these forums.. but look at the box, ain't she pretty?! lol Had no issue sourcing the parts (SBP has a lot of the Cool Audio chips in stock fyi). It is dead simple to bias. I saw someone tossing n turning (get...

fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun!! I guess sub octave fuzzes are rather niche, but if you're getting square wave weird & want to stay within the realm of "musicality,' give her a shot. Super straightforward build. Decent amount of sustain for this type of effect. Is it living on my...

Holllllllllly shit What a blast!! Fun to build (again, inverse relationship of board size to BOM), realllllly fun to play! The level of chug I'm getting out of a tele with vintage wound single coils is........high. Bringing me back to playing speed metal in high school, sort of a novelty but...

well, as advertised, it dooms! this is an instance of boredom, rather than necessity, being the mother of invention.. i listen to almost no doom & play even less, but hype is hype & once I got the idea to make a graphic with this logo.. it had to happen. what a joy to build. the inverse...

harumph. following the rabbit hole of other minnow troubleshoots has only scrambled my brain worse. hoping one of y'all can help me get this bad bitch up and running! at first I thought there was no output (assumed ground), until cranking the amp. I still didn't have a signal, but I was...

So, I've had this in a blank enclosure since July or so.. every time I went to design the art my brain kept jumping from place to place, one more disgusting than the next. Finally I said fuck it, I'll just vectorize some R Crumb and slap it on a pink box *heh heh* Whilst searching the annals...

First time, long time.. so went as stock as possible given my current stores. The IC is OP07, and the tranny is 2N5457. Apart from those components, everything else is spec'ed to PPCB BOM. She chugs. She a fuggin RAT. Tayda UV printing with varnish gloss on matte grey sand - second pic at...

a few weeks (months?) ago, i was trawling the forums ISO a good answer to a simple belton question, and this effect kept popping up as a modulatory favorite.. yadda yadda yadda, and here we are! UV printing from Tayda. double white on black w/ varnish gloss. the event horizon lookin a...

Well this was a surprise! Nothing complicated whatsoever in the build.. thought I was breezing right through it. Alas. At first I thought there was no output & suspected a mystery ground somewhere.. dimed every knob & the volume on my amp, and heard a little somethin somethin. Some kind...

The logo is a direct rip of a George Lois design for a now defunct airline w/ props and respect to the legend. Since this is a Sun Lion simulacrum, it seemed to fit. I wish there was space in a 1590BB for the Rangemaster to fit horizontally - I think it sounds way WAY better than the Naga...

aka TON RAJA! *long sigh* finally. Like many, or at least a few, of you - my impetus to start building anything, was to play a KoT..shit even hear one in real life. 600 bucks and 3 years be damned! I built a stock version. I built a mini version. Sounded great, but I quickly became...

Tommy? Timmy? Who gives a shit?

aka TRIBE OF BINYAMIN!! remember when I said designing enclosures during the High Holidays was a real vibe? Right, so when thinking about the direction for Son of Ben all I kept hearing was in that episode of Curb when Larry is banging the Palestinian chick who hates his guts & he's putting...

I love a treble booster. LOVE it I say. Wanted a Rangemaster & old british amp in a box combo. Here's my first stab at getting Bolan tone in one enclosure - using the Rangefinder and J'taime. I love this thing!
