This one gave me a fit to get working but after all said and done it works and sounds pretty good, Not my favorite fuzz but it is loud. Q1 2n222 100 hfe Q2 Bc109c 403 hfe Q3 MP38 70 hfe D2 5.1 v zener D1 random Russian germanium .31fv

At my wits end with 2nd attempt… built completely stock specs basically Q3 is NPN MP38 70 hfe with about 200 leakage Used a 5.1 V zener I’m getting about 4.2 at Q1 collector I’m getting about 3.6 at Q2 collector I’m getting zero voltage at Q3 collector I’m not getting voltage at the zener...

Finished up this full size Klone for my board this morning… Everything went pretty smooth. Sounds really good too..

Just finished up this build.. This is definitely not an easy build.. The slide switches have to be perfect in height to hit the faceplate just right as well as being level.. Takes some fiddling before you commit.. I had to clip two switches back out on my first attempt and redo.. I opted to mod...

So I put a vero build to the side I was building for Feral Feline... Issue I'm having is likely due to the HFE of the 5089's im using but I'm not able to get under 7.8 volts on the trimmer to set bias and the circuit.... What resistor change should I make to help get a little more room to tweak...

Had a request to build a local dobro player a preamp so I decided to go with this build.. Sounds really good for a clean guitar boost..The EQ section is very useable! I actually started and finished something all in the same day… I have a few other half baked problem children pedals I put to the...

Got a request to build a preamp pedal for a dobro player that uses a passive pickup... plugs into a direct box>FOH. Says he looking for something to boost his signal with a separate gain/volume. I was thinking some sort of boost build with an EQ section or possibly the unicab or EMU? Neither of...

Used a Vero layout from tagboard effects. 3d printed the enclosure and went to work getting it all in there… Turned out pretty good… Fairly decent volume drop when engaged but it sounds pretty good

Pretty straight forward build and all went smoothly. Still have a bit of tuning to do but for now it has a nice range of speed… I have it set fairly subtle so it doesn’t get in the way of anything else.. Pretty good modulation pedal that has a good warble vibe kinda thing… Great for if you want...

Finished up a dual build… Straightforward and everything biased out just fine.. Rangefinder with a Ruskie I was gifted from @jessenator and a Benson Preamp

Been too busy and frankly a bit unmotivated lately.. A friend needed a tap tempo so I dove in and built this monstrosity

What would be your must haves? I know nothing about Bass. Our church uses some small sansamp / tech 21 bass fly rig pedal that has a few built in effects... If I were to build a small pedalboard for all the Bass players what would be a good selections of must haves for some phat clean tones for...

This is my very first attempt at building on stripboard / Veroboard. Saw a YouTube video of a veroboard build and decided to give it a try.. It’s a super hard on boost wired for the buffer to be always on.. To my surprise it fired up on the first attempt.. Pretty tight quarters on the enclosure.

I’ve built several of these so far and I do enjoy how they artifact. This was built for a friend that has a teen struggling with cancer. The kid started playing electric guitar last year… My first attempt landed in the troubleshooting forum and never made it out… started fresh and all went well..

This is one has got me scratching my head.. I have bypass, I have power to the pedal… I do not have a signal passing through when engaged.., none of the probes signals have a delay and no combination of the knobs kick it in..Hooked up an audio probe and here’s what I’ve found. I have signal at...

Figured I’d post a formal build report since I built one out for a forum member… Super simple and straight forward build… it’s a pretty decent sounding circuit with the light chorus and reverb.., The boost option adds a decent amount of gain.. If I were to do it again I would try to mod the...

Been a minute since I’ve completed a build… Building this one as a gift to a friend… Finally get to finish something!

Had several irons in the fire lately and I find myself having to choose subs and gang up resistors to meet a value lately... I've let a lot of my stock values deplete completely due to not ordering onsie twosies during this tariff and inflation crap... plus I'm extra strapped lately. Just...

So I was able to pick up some of those excelta snips off eBay for crazy cheap and I’d be damned if every pair I got are collecting leads when snipping.. I have one of those Chinese mag tools that demags and mags but it seems to do only work with screwdrivers….. Any of you guys have a solution...

Sold the one I built for myself so I whooped up another with some light subs some have suggested here. Changed some cap values for warmer mod and increased the gain pot values. Have some unidentified glass case diodes I used that measured .72fv left side set up for high gain and right side setup...
