Finally finished this today complete with tremolo misspelling ala Cees! Shoutout to Spencer at Amplifyfun for the UV Printing! Excellent job and great to work with on a one-off.

Finally got this done. It’s a very cool pedal! Thanks Cees!

I noticed I have a nice satin china mist 1590XX that I picked up from SBP at some point. What's your favorite combo that you've built in a 1590XX? Bonus points for sound clips!

I sent the UV print file that Cees had created to Spencer at Amplifyfun to see about getting an enclosure printed and drilled. When he overlayed the drill coordinates that Cees had in the build document onto the UV print file they don't line up. I don't have the software to correct this. Is...

This the first pedal I’ve built in a while and the wiring/soldering shows, but it works (after the oscillation incident). It’s been super cold so the clear coat orange peeled on me no matter how warm I tried to keep it.

Populated the board and have it air wired to my prototyping pcb and transistors are all full lead length yet. Have the diode socketed and the zener alligator clip wired to try different ones. Lots of wire hanging everywhere, so that may be the problem. Using the following transistors with...

I have a couple of pcb pin footswitches laying around and was wondering if anyone has used these directly soldering wires to the pins? Seems like a wrap or two od 22-24awg and a dab of solder would work fine. I have a handful of 3PDT boards, but you'd have to really lay on the solder and fill...

Here are the build docs for the Artiflex Boost and UV print file.

Here are the build docs for the Equanimity Harmonic Tremolo along with a UV Print file that Cees had sent me.

Here is the build doc for Cee's Gyravibe along with a sampling Cee's did.

I've used Diptrace for some very simple PCB's (rotary switch boards for example), but wanted to try something more ambitious. Soooooo, here we have the usual Tonebender with a rat output, but I wanted to add a rotary switch for 4 clipping diode selections. Here's what I have so far, but I'm...

Here’s my version of the Reeves Supa J. Built in a radio control box from the early 1940’s. I put the diodes on their own switch so I could engage them with either circuit. I need to figure out knobs for it (or maybe not).

Finally got my protoboard populated and thought the Reeves Supa-J would be a good first use. I like this circuit, but think I’ll put the diodes on their own switch.

So I'd like to put a envelope filter and a BMP in the same enclosure with a parallel blend between them. The envelope filter would always be on and then the fuzz could be added. I'm using Madbeans Kraken and Mudbunney boards and a JMK Paralyzer for the parallel blend. Fark me if I can't figure...

Went to log in to the shop and it wouldn't recognize my login credentials. Had to make a new account and of course all my wishlist and orders have disappeared. Frustrating.

I've breadboarded up a Univox Squarewave (Pulsewave) to see if I liked it before getting the PCB. I've built it stock using a BC550 and J201 with bias trimmers on each. What I did notice is that the "Distortion" control, which is just a bass cut really, has a huge volume drop from one end of...

Anyone ever used dry rub lettering with a clear coat to label knobs? I’ve got an amp project that I really don’t want to spend the $$ to get custom faceplates made or try to make inkjet labels for. FWIW they will be cream colored chicken head knobs.

I picked these up over the weekend. My wife actually saw them at the thrift store and said “those would be awesome cleaned up a bit”. So, I’m thinking some kind of fuzz or a tube based pedal. What say you?

I had one of these in my Amazon wishlist (use it for bookmarking more than anything) and my daughter bought it for me for Christmas. I know it’s very basic, minimal specs, but is it good for some things as far a pedal building goes? I’d be afraid to use it on a tube amp even with the 10X probe.

So after trying different tone circuits (regular BMP tone circuit, Rat, AMZ BMP modified, AEFEA drive, OpAmp BMP, and just some fixed resistors/caps) the OABMP seems to give me the best overall tone sweep with my Seamoon fuzz circuit. They are somewhat similar. Anyway, I’m assuming that the 47K...
