    Steddi, Go! - simple tube D.I.

    For the past several years I've catered largely to bassists, since they tend to be largely underserved in the pedal world. One thing that pretty much every bassist needs is a good sounding D.I., because nobody is going to bring their 8x10 stack to a bar gig for $50. Nobelium is still hands down...

    Bathtub Reverb - tube-driven digital reverb

    I'm a simple man, I like subtle reverb. I don't need to sound like I'm playing in a massive underground cathedral, I just want my reverb to sound like spring reverb. But none of my amps have reverb, so I need something. I came up with this circuit years ago but never really did much with it, so...

    C2C Electronics Summer Break

    Quick heads-up for everyone that didn't hear the news already, C2C Electronics will be taking a break starting June 15. The break is mostly for me to focus on some changes to my production pedal lineup, but I also want to get some work done on the C2C end like build docs. One big thing I'm...

    Mirage Tremolo - Tube Tremolo Project

    Matchless has always been one of my favorite brands out there, so I guess it was only a matter of time before I got to this one. The Matchless Vibrobox is an all-tube tremolo/clean preamp with a vaguely Vox-ish flavor. Mirage Tremolo takes the Matchless circuit into a 1590BB enclosure, getting...

    Same old stuff I guess

    I was hoping to have a tube tremolo project for everyone, but I built it up last night and I hate it. So until I can get you something else to play with, I had a couple requests for a Bassman preamp and something Kingsley, so I spun up Bassdude and King Nothing. These have been fully verified...

    Monoprice Stage Right 15W amp rebuild

    I was trying to decide which thread I wanted to keep spamming with this, then I remembered I have my own section here, so I can leave everyone else alone and post my garbage here. I'll start with background: Six months or so ago I picked up a 15W "Stage Right" amp from Monoprice when they were...

    NAMM 2024

    Time for my annual "is anyone going to NAMM this year?" post :P It's a little earlier than usual this year since I'm finally getting a booth, so I have to plan further ahead. I'll be in the "Innovator Showcase" with all the other little guys in the back, I'm booth 4246. I'm mostly going to be...

    Nobelium - tube bass preamp project

    This is one I've been working with Jeff (@C2C Electronics ) on for months, and I'm finally ready enough to mention it. I did the general design and let Jeff handle the PCB, and we're both really proud of how this one turned out. It's obviously not based on anything in particular (*wink-wink*)...

    New project stuff maybe?

    One of the guitarists in my band uses a Victory V4 Countess for his main tone, and we always talked about having me trace it and build a clone that's smaller and more convenient, but nothing ever became of it. Well on tuesday night we had practice at my place, and we're practicing again here...

    C2C Electronics - Tayda Drill Templates

    It was requested that I put together some Tayda drill templates for my DIY projects for those that are inclined to use that sort of thing. These have all been verified for fit with the corresponding PCB. Please tag me in any build reports using these. Not because I need them for my records or...

    Ambassador - Matchless Hotbox project

    This one was mentioned in another thread, and it got me thinking that it would be a pretty good DIY project. This will be based off the original Hotbox, which is not true bypass. The footswitch switches between two channels, clean and gain, and it will all fit into a 1590BB. I'm not done with...

    Venus X - NAMM 2023 Sushi Box Sneak Peak

    Well this is it, this is what I've been working on for the last two years, and it's finally done. I've spent more money on prototype PCBs for this project than I did on my first car (not an exaggeration). But after all the time and money, I have something really cool, and I'm excited to share it...

    Diplomat - Matchless DC30's EF86 Channel

    Alright, I kind of teased this one a bit ago in the Echo Foxtrot thread as this is the reason Echo Foxtrot has been discontinued. Diplomat is based on the EF86 channel of the Matchless DC30, my favorite amp ever. Since this is a single pentode stage it will not overdrive by itself, but you can...

    "Cicada" - 1W tube amp

    I posted this here rather than in the Sushi Box subforum because the project isn't going anywhere. I originally planned to make this available as a DIY project, but I'm not as happy with the sound as I wanted to be, so I'm scrapping it and coming up with something different. This is basically a...

    Treat yo' self

    I had been feeling a little burned out lately working on stuff for customers, so I decided to take some time off and build a couple things for me. Circuits are identical, just couldn't decide which theme I wanted to go with so I had to build two. Circuit is a stock Black Eye (Soldano GTO)...

    Sushi Box FX - live Q&A

    If anyone is super bored tonight, I'll be talking shop on youtube for about an hour starting at 8:30 PM central time. https://youtube.com/live/kWyneK6NxcI?feature=share

    "None More Black" - Particle Accelerator Preamp

    I'd been thinking about doing a build like this ever since I found the black 3PDT, and decided tonight was the night. Board is my design, based on the Alembic F-2B. Matte black powdercoat, black UV print, black powdercoated nuts and washers (waste of time), blacker than the blackest black times...

    Particle Accelerator - Alembic F-2B clone

    This one has been in the works for a long while (as @Mike McLane can attest) but I finally got a version I'm happy with. The Alembic F-2B was the first high-voltage tube pedal I ever made, and it remains a super cool tone to keep in one's arsenal. I've always liked being able to hide the tube...

    Back In Stock Updates

    I have about 50 Black Eye PCBs back in stock. I have a dozen or so enclosures on hand and will be getting more soon, so enclosures will continue to be an option. https://www.sushiboxfx.com/product/black-eye-diy-pcb/

    Echo Foxtrot - yet another simple tube preamp (coming soon)

    This one has the same holdup as Space Heater, it's going to go into a 125B enclosure but the current Tayda 125B have thicker walls than the Hammond enclosure I designed around so I need to source some enclosures (out for delivery today) from somewhere else to make sure I can make it fit without...
