I'm adding a 9v out to the back of my amp to power my always-on reverb pedal that will live inside it. I never adjust it, so it's taking up space on my board, why not free that up and give myself another project? The amp is my SLO-30 Clone I built last year. Here's the schematic I've come up...

After writing I'm going to clean more flux, but here's where I'm at right now: The bulb doesn't flash, so I assume it's the LFO not passing signal. Both Depth and Rate don't function. I can produce modulation by closing/opening the case, so the LDR's and rest of the circuit works. There's a...

Ok, just picked the box up from UPS as the shipper chose to have it held at a UPS store. Depending on your perspective, this is a good way of thwarting porch pirates or annoyance that you have to go pick it up. It’s the latter for me, as I’m home most days, though I can appreciate that the...

I'm building a BD-2 based on the layout over at effects layouts with a modded output stage designed by @Chuck D. Bones. The circuit works perfectly until I get to the BS170. Chuck's thread...

Full tweed coverage for the enclosure really makes this pedal. Nothing to say about it, super straight forward build and it sounds exactly how you expect. It’s now the first drive in my chain, crunching everything up when I slam it on. The toughest part was being precise with the tweed, I had...

This is based on the Shrapnel overdrive by PedalPCB, a clone of the ThorpyFX Gunshot. I was interested because I found I love my compressor which is a clone of Thorpy’s General comp. Once I put it together I loved the sound, but didn’t know how to do it justice with an enclosure. So I put it on...

I wanted something to be a backup to my tube amps, and something I can easily attach to my pedalboard. Reading through the thread on the TPA3118 power amp board, I realized I could do it! I found some tiny simple amplifier boards that run off 5v, so I can use the USB port on my Fender Engine...

I have thought about building this pedal for a few months now. The Blues Driver was the first drive pedal I vibed with but me being a tinkerer, I had to modify it. I went with Monte Allums’ mod as it was my first mod, it blew me away, and I was hooked on the modding/building hobby. The Tumnus...

I had previously built a standard Kliché mini but it just felt bland, nothing appealing enough to knock my Tumnus off my board. The Kliché Special Edition is the klone I needed! When I saw the mock-up, I knew I wanted to build it. Look at those pots tastefully arrayed in a nonstandard...

I had previously built a life pedal but it never quite worked correctly, the boost had an odd delay before kicking in. It sounded amazing, but the boost bothered me. So I attempted to repair it, broke a pad and somehow solder leaked to a tiny scratch which shorted the signal to ground in a...

This build is my most anticipated, I love both pedals it’s based on and ever since I built the Sproing Deluxe, I wanted a dual drive pedal too! I broke a few pads and traces, so there’s jumper wires all over 🤣 The first 5k pot I installed was bad, so that was frustrating, little did I know...

I'm building a Muzzle Classic with the retrofit module, and plan on using a TC1044 charge pump. There aren't any jumper pads as indicated in the build docs, what pins should I jump on the socket? Thanks!

Had a few fender knobs hanging around, good fit for this pedal. The red LEDs reminiscent of the black panel fender lamps. Inside is pretty simple, I gotta start using the 3PDT breakout boards on all my builds. I like my makeshift header connection here, much tidier than short wires...
