I really like the Hail Satan pedal so I jumped on the kits Abominable just started selling. There is nothing super special about the circuit. Muff style with LED clipping diodes and a footswitch to activate another set of LED clipping diodes. Its nasty and massive. Fun to play Sleep and...

I hate being that guy but I'm stuck on this one. I built this up with the side chain passthrough, exactly as shown in the build doc. Populated the board to stock except, I'm using a pre-wired LED that has the CLR built-in so I jumpered R21 and R22 with a 0ohm resistor...

Still not sure what this is derived from but I just know it kicks ass. Very reminiscent of a Muff but not as thick. Still beefy and fuzzy. I was thinking of building just the 1 knob version but Im glad I did this one. Having the input and filter knobs outside are pretty helpful and getting a...

My submission for the Player Hater's Ball contest. I've been waiting to find something that fits the criteria. I built this one a few months ago and it didn't work right so it just sat in its unfinished enclosure. It was one of my first bigger stripboard builds. Not that its big, the offboard...

So, not sure if this is just normal for this circuit but, I'm getting some annoying squealing at high gain. I built this to the FX-55B Supra Distortion specs. A buddy of mine really wanted this for nostalgic purposes. I first had the A500k in for the gain but all the Distortion was only at...

This was thought about and made specifically for the Muff contest. Which I assume is still going on. (Don't think I've seen an official entry yet) This could actually fit into the criteria for the PHB contest since I built it yesterday with mostly stuff I had on hand. But, since rules dictate...

I do love me a good MIAB. This is the newer one from Marshall. Built to the BOM except I used JRC4559 for the opamps. Funny story, I purchased surface mount MC33178 but accidentally ordered the MOIC format instead of the SOIC. I got adapters but it was such a pain to solder such a tiny IC...

I'm trying to find the link for a site that was posted on here not too long ago. It was a basic site where you can search on a component, and it would tell you what you can build with it. Does that ring a bell to anyone? It was pretty helpful

Is search broken is it just me?

Okay, this thing rules. I've played hundreds of fuzz pedals, and this one has got to be in my top 5. I couldn't put it down. But your results may vary! I splurged on the OC140 from Small Bear and thankfully it was super solid. Perfect hfe and very little leakage. BOM says BC107 so I put a...

I've been really digging the Roland AF100 Bee Baa fuzz. I just did the Fuzzhead Stoner Bee and have done the (basically) direct clone with the AionFX board. And they both kick ass. Killer chewy silicon fuzz. This one is my favorite so far. I like what they did with the circuit. I haven't...

Probably a dumb question but I'm looking at the Rat Bass Boost mod for my Muroidea. I haven't heard this one yet, but it sounds pretty cool. The "More Bass" mode is likely overkill. Either way, I just want to run it by the forum before I do it. So, as my understanding, it looks like you just...

I've been wanting to build this one for a while and thankfully it lives up to the hype. It's fun as hell. I built the Aion FX Ibex, which is a straight-up clone of the Roland Bee Baa. And it rules. So, this takes it up a few notches. The insides look absolutely horrendous. But it works fine...

I built this quick and dirty mute switch to mute my rig while changing guitars on stage. I used this drawing I used a 3PDT on/on toggle switch and it works fine to mute the signal but I was hoping with the bicolor LED (common cathode) it would turn red when off and green when on. I'm only...

In honor of Pi day I have a couple vero Muff variants. Not a big fan of vero but I wanted to make these boards. Still a struggle to get the offboard wiring clean. First up is the Emanating Fist XB-70. This is based off a '77 Guild Foxey Lady. It sounds very smooth. Mids switch is pretty...

This is one of my favorite fuzz pedals. And I've played alot. One of those ones where I bought the retail version, sold it, bought it again, then sold when I built my own. I built the Effects Layouts version but was not a huge fan of the layout. The PPCB version is much cleaner imo. Plus I think...

Another raucous build from DMI. This is based off the Boss XT-2 but can be modded to adjust the EQ for a maxed-out HM-2 with adjustable mids. It gets pretty close to the EQ curve of the HM-2 which I'm a fan of. Gets pretty nasty. Had a lot of fun building and blasting out my neighbors...

This is pretty much a Deadastronaut FX Space Patrol Fuzz on a PPCB Muffin PCB. Sans rotary knob. The wiring is a mess especially with the 3 LEDs. Works great tho so that's what matters. Have fun with this one. Very cool take on the Muff. Has an interesting slight octave on it.

Cool little one here. It almost gets close to Alice in Chains tones. Either way, it's a good sounding distortion. For me it sounded bad with single coils but much better with humbucklers. I did socket R15 since there was a thread that said volume was an issue. I tried the 180k in there first...

Is the PPCB 3 Channel Splitter and the PPCB 3 Channel Mixer essentially doing the same thing as what the JHS Buffered Splitter and Summing Amp are doing in this video? I'd much rather build something like this than buy it from them. Sorry if this was addressed before but I couldn't see it in a...
