Note, it's called the Fuzz Driver and it's different from the Hybrid Fuzz Driver. Anyone know what this is? Is it some ancient Skreddy pedal, or just something else that was mislabeled? http://dirtboxlayouts.blogspot.com/2019/09/skreddy-fuzz-driver.html...

https://drill.taydakits.com/box-designs/new?public_key=NHhqd1kwNW5uemlwVWxtZENXOURHdz09Cg== Verified I compared the 4 knob template (Son of Ben) to the Sandblaster build docs and it seems that they match up, except the LED hole is a switch, there's an another switch, and a led hole lower down...

Not really directly pedal related, but it could be. A volume pot on one of my guitars is pretty stiff. I'm wondering if there's some tried and true method to fix it? What I found by googling is letting the pot soak in lighter fluid overnight, but that seems kinda overkill, plus I would need to...

I was using my huge pedalboard a little ago and suddenly it started malfunctioning. Just a slow motorboating type sound, some pedals not lighting up, smelled like burning. I finally got around to troubleshooting in more detail, and it looks like my Truetone 1Spot CS12 is broken. To be more...

If I wanted to use a pedal designed for guitar (mainly, say, a delay pedal) for vocals, is there anything else than just switching out the input and output jacks for XLR? And how would that work since it's unbalanced and mono, presumably? Or is a microphone's signal too low to work with just any...

So I was a dumdum and did a nono and put in polarized tantalums in the 1uF slots on the Hydra. If I got it right, it's ok as long as the tantalum is blocking 9V from reaching the FV-1 and the output cap stops DC from leaking out of the pedal, is that correct? If I figure which way they are in...

Built up the Viceroy, and it passes signal and sounds somewhat like it should if I dime level, gain and juice and toggle juice to be enabled. Toggle juice to disabled, and it's more of a mid gain thing. Lower either level or gain and it gets way too thin. In short, I don't have as much signal as...

Hello! Bypass is fine, very weak signal when active (with drive and volume dimed, not much if they're not at max). I didn't trace the signal the whole way through since I don't have a schematic (apparently it's based on a BOR without the boost so this should be in the ballpark...

First off, I apologize for the abomination of a build. I first put in the 2N5088 in the wrong orientation, clipped off the legs and tried desoldering for a bit, but it didn't work very well so I just soldered a new one on top. I also subbed two of the 1uF coupling caps (?) for 470nF due to...

Hello! I built the Informant Overdrive a while back, but I'm not in love with it. At least with my Strat that I normally use, which is obviously pretty bright sounding, it's not a great match. If I turn down the tone control on the guitar I can get a really nice, smooth, distortion with a lot...

Gatekeeper from Effects Layouts, schematic here: http://effectslayouts.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/GateKeeper-Build-Doc.pdf I get a delay, but it's very weak and muffled. With tone at full it's like a bit crappier version of the dry signal, but quickly devolves to mud, while with the tone...

Anyone familiar with this pedal? A friend is interested in one, but doesn't seem like there are any schematics or layouts or similar around. The webpage has a block diagram (https://www.lounsberrypedals.com/product/organ-grinder/, scroll right in the images) and it seems simple enough. Similar...

Hello! I built the Informant overdrive, but I didn't remember to order 470 ohm resistors and I'm planning to not order more stuff for a bit, so I substituted them for 430 ohms. The pedal sounds nice, but it's a bit on the thin/bright side - it's fine if I keep the cut control maxed or almost...

History The Coda Effects Black Hole (Sunn Model T preamp with JFET's instead of tubes, plus a LPB-1 in front, either footswitchable or a toggle switch) was supposed to be my first non-kit pedal. I had to learn where to buy parts and how, and so much more. The only issue was that the PCB I...

Hello! I've built the Aion Anubis (https://aionfx.com/app/files/docs/anubis_documentation.pdf) a while back and it's very noisy when I use it in the FX loop of a Quad Cortex. The Body control also affects this hiss tremendously. There's a specific sweet spot around 3'o'clock where the hiss is...

I just had to build this one first when I got the latest enclosures I had printed at Tayda because it looked gorgeous (and the idea behind it is quite interesting). Basically it's a fuzz with a feedback mode, which produces weird and interesting squealing noises - plus the feedback mode is...

Hello! I'm trying to build https://moodysounds.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/zeygot-fuzz-kit-sve-2c.pdf (sorry, I asked for english instructions but got no answer) the Zeygot fuzz from Moodysounds. I'm using a latching footswitch for the noise function. But I would like to use a bi-color LED...

Hello! I've done a couple of acrylic pour paintings with my wife (they come out very cool for the amount of effort, especially if you like a stoner/nebula/space aesthetic, IMO) so I figured I would try something similar to paint a pedal enclosure. It came out looking great (well, it's still...

Hello! I built the Moonn Aztek Sunn which is an Acapulco Gold with apparently the Sunn Model T EQ stack (well, you can build it with one knob, two knobs or 5 knobs). Here's the build doc with the schematics https://www.dropbox.com/s/pm2pr5tf7ezz8uh/Aztek Sunn Doc V2.pdf?dl=0 My issue is that...

Hello! I've now had a set of enclosures printed and drilled at Tayda, and the results were pretty good. For normal use like that I've just used the "snipping tool" to copy the drill tool preview image to Illustrator to get the approximate locations of the pot holes correct, and that was just...
