i just finished building a Cream Pie in a 1590B with all top jacks and a relayed true bypass, and to me, it just sounds too dark, even with the tone control dimed. If it wasn't so dark sounding, i'd probably like it A LOT more.

I just finished this one and, IMO, it actually sounds pretty good. I went with a 1590B with relayed true bypass.

i just finished this one about an hour ago and i'm really diggin' it. I wanted to capture the look of the original (that way i can keep track of what they are). anyway, i'm very pleased on how it turned out and it sounds great with a bass.

I just finished this one and i really dig it. i use mine with a bass so i did ONE mod to it, by replacing C1 (33nf) with a 68nf capacitor to allow more low end into the circuit. I installed sockets for R6 (3k3 resistor) but after trying it without the resistor, I'm just not going to install it...

I just finished this one. I did a couple of mods to it to make it more to my liking. First, the BA482 didoes being hard ti find, i used ECG 555A;'s (which were listed to be a suitable replacement). I also wanted a little bit more output and since i didn't have a 53K6 resistor, i used a 56K one...

I just finshed build the Motorizer and I really dig it. After it was completed, while testing it out of the enclosure, I wasn't very pleased with the sound of the distortion (flubby and ugly), especially at high gain settings, but for some unexplained reason, once mounted and completed, it...

i just finsihed building two Rats in 1590B2 enclosures, both with added eq controls and a relayed true bypass. One with treble & bass (BAX Rat Bass) and the other with treble, mids and bass (3 Band Rat), and they both have an additional clipping option switch. Anyway, here's a pic of each of...

Just finished a Lovetone Meatball clone. I've built a few in the past (the first one years ago on veroboard), another one with a PCB that i can't find for sale anymore, and this newest one using an Aion PCB. It sounds great and I incorporated on all of them the "Moog" switch, that I feel is a...

I just finished these three (two of them last night) and they all sound great and have a relayed true bypass: Sherwood Drive (Earthquaker Devices Westwood): Aion Empyrean (darkglass Alpha Omega). Lots of components! At first I tried original MC33178's, but ended up using JRC4559DD's...

just finished these two pedalPCB Catalinbread pedals and IMO, both sound really good. I labeled the enclosures with the Catalibread logos since i just built them for myself and that way i can keep track of what they are. Windmill/ WIIO: Prince Albert (RAH):

I had a request to build a few of these years ago and then someone wanted one about two weeks ago, so I built one for him. I didn't get around to building one for myself but after hearing the latest build i just had to make one for myself. I uses an internal voltage converter (a TEC 2-0923) to...

I just finished a Chela build yesterday. I built one (etched my own pcb for it) years ago in 1590B: but I wanted one with all top jacks since i really liked the sound of it, so here's a pic of my Chela build:

i just finished building this one today. Aion supplies the PCB to build either the CC-1 or the higher gain GC-1 on the same pcb. I opted for the GC-1's eq with the lower gain of the CC-1, since I found that the pedal really couldn't do absolutely clean and i actually like it quite a bit (on bass...

I just finished this one and I like it. On this one I used the graphics from the original EAE pedal so I can remember what it actually is. I used all Wima film caps in it and used a PedalPCB relayed bypass.

Just thought that i'd share these since i just finished these two. A JHS Angry Charles and a Brownout (Subdecay Variac). I like both of them a lot and used a relayed true bypass on both. i did one mod on the Angry Charles since I'm a bass player by using a larger value input cap to allow more...

just finished this one and i like it alot. At unity it still has a little grit but it's mostly clean.

I just finished this one, a GCI Bass Brutalist. All the film caps are from Wima and I used the mods contributed by John Snyder of Electrical Audio Experiments. I think that it sounds great: gut shot:

my latest build (MASSIVE LOW END!) and i use my personal one as my go to distortion on all of my gigs:

I had an original S&S Bluebeard years ago but sold it so i was looking for another one to buy. after not finding one, i decided to make one of my own but in a smaller enclosure with a relayed true bypass. I call my version the "Blackbeard". I had requests to make some for others and Sanford and...

I've always been a huge fan of Sunn amps (mostly the tube models) and I've owned quite few Sunn Coliseums in the past and had another mint one about 8 years ago. Here's pic of it: IMO, it didn't really sound as good a I remembered, lacking low end, so I sold it. About 4 years ago I decided...
