Hey, Anybody who's hand-drilled a Nobelium want to save me some time and share a scaled printable template? I'm a luddite who likes to hand drill/ mill everything and I don't have any CAD skills. @fmcc @vigilante398 thx!

I’m a little shocked at how good this sounds. Especially considering the relative simplicity and cost, this is really impressive. My favorite kind of dark and dirty delay tone and can do a pretty long delay time without any annoying high frequency noise problems. Also sounds pretty great in...

This would be more fun if I knew some heavier riffs. I spend too much of my time playing acoustic, and nothing I do there sounds cool going through the chainsaw. I had fun with this for a couple hours, but it'll probably end up living in the drawer unless I learn some new chops.

Just noticed this thing on the Tayda site about discount coupons on Facebook. Anyone following them on Facebook? Is that a real thing?

This is my second paragon build. The first one was great, but it sold pretty quick and it took me a while to get around to building a replacement. If you’re considering building one of these, definitely spend some time reading the posts. I’m sure a stock build is fine too, but there’s been a...

I forget who’s build report got me to order this, but I’m glad they did. The only other one-knobber I’ve tried (acupulco gold) I really didn’t vibe with, but this thing sounds awesome. It sounded super gated at first, particularly at anything below full guitar volume. Turned the gain trimmer...

Better late than never! I started working on this ages ago, but I forgot to order one part which pushed it back, and then I just started skipping over it. Once a project gets stuck in procrastination purgatory I have a hard time ever getting it going again. I was also pretty intimidated by the...

@dan.schumaker ’s take on the Boss DM-3. If you scored one of these boards when Dan offered em up, you should build it. It’s great. I’ve been on a mini analog delay journey and this is my favorite of the bunch so far. I started with a skoolie from Madbean. I dig the modulation, but I need to...

I’m still in the honeymoon period on this one, but so far I’m excited about the sounds. I’ve definitely made snarky comments about overdrives not needing this many controls, but in this case I feel more like there are a bunch of nice tones to choose from, vs fighting with a bunch of controls...

I'm getting my parts together to build a Viceroy, and reading through @Chuck D. Bones development thread for that circuit: https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/monarch.5066/ Chuck used PF5102 JFETs (Which I have, so far so good) and recommends something with a Vp no larger than 2V. Following...

I built one of these in 2023 and I remember liking it, but I sold it pretty quick. I ordered another board right away, and I had an extra faceplate from the first build, so I could have done another one pretty quick, but It’s always a little less exciting to do a repeat build. The build went...

From the GCI site: DS-1 with HM-2 EQ Inspired by the pedal stacking of early Swedish death metal pioneers, the GCI HM-1 combines the distortion and tone stack of a DS-1 with a boost-only version of the HM-2 tone stack. My brother in law requested a Metal Zone last year, so I ordered some MT-2...

This is the third one of these I've built over the last couple months. Way back in 2023 when I ordered these boards there were some gnarly troubleshooting threads going on that made me nervous that maybe all of these were cursed, but all three of mine were smooth sailing and sound great. The...

I grabbed this board from @blackhatboojum in April last year when he did a group buy on these. It’s his take on an Ibanez AD9 delay, but with an extra 3205 for double the delay time. Blows my mind that a person could figure out a thing like that and get it done. Even came with a nice set of...

The mighty mistress is complete! Started on this over a year ago and it’s been an adventure. First I mis-drilled and scrapped an enclosure, then @jwyles90 had a flanger emergency while MBP was out of stock so I sent him my pcb. He grabbed one when Bean restocked and got it out to me so I could...

Boxing up this current lover and getting ready to wire it. Have any of you built the 2024 version and wired the stomp switch without a daughter board? Want to share a pic so I don’t have to use my brain? The layout of the wiring connections changed a little from the version pictured in the...

One more to finish out the weekend. I built a paragon a while back and liked it but I ended up selling it. I thought I had an idea from that what the bluesbreaker thing was all about and I was looking forward to the morning glory filling that void in my life. What I hadn’t factored in was...

FUZZZ! What a nice easy build! Low parts count, nothing tricky, sounds good, what more do you need? I spent this afternoon failing to track down a gremlin in my recording setup and then needed a win, so I grabbed this. I think this was the first pedal I ever built start to finish in a single...

Just finished one of these! Haven't used a muff in a while, but this one sounds pretty great. The Dope and 1979 switches have a big sound impact. The URA one is pretty subtle. Built to the BOM, nothing special. Only tricky thing was the DC wiring with that toggle jammed up in there. Would have...

Okay, fess up. Which one of you weirdos talked me into building this thing?? What the heck. What a weird pedal. I need to go read up on it, but so far I've just been trying to figure it out the hard way. Seems like t's a fuzz with no gain control into a delay with pitch shifted repeats, and...
