    Spatialist Reverb

    Best looking pedal I've seen in a while - well done, sir

    Modded Hyped Fuzz-boss FZ-2w 🤡

    Could I conceivably use the V1 board and update with the V2 values?

    Hyped Fuzz Mode Opinions

    I built one recently and I'm underwhelmed. I guess I'm so used to Big Muffs and Fuzz Faces - this one sounds more.........messy......than the other fuzzes. Like more inarticulate. I'll play with the transistors a little more, but at this rate, it's going on the shelf.

    Anyone know where to find this part?

    I was going to say..........Tatooine?

    Mini-size Russian Big Muff Knobs?

    Does anyone make mini-sized knobs in the OG Russian Big Muff shape? I saw a pic where someone had them on the new mini Russian reissue, but just said that he 'bought some printed ones'. I was thinking of doing a Red Army Overdrive in a 125B with them. Like these (at Smallbear), only smaller:

    Low Gain Silicon Transistors

    Great timing - I got the itch to try some lower (than typical) gain transistors for my Big Muff builds. My main one is a GGG-tuned BMP (VRH variant), which was running 2N5089s. Just a ridiculous 'thick wall of lightning' fuzz. I binge-bought some BC109Bs (Smallbear) and BC550Bs (Tayda); the...

    Modded Hyped Fuzz-boss FZ-2w 🤡

    Sorry, I meant to say, that same resistor on my build doc (between the emitter of Q1 and the positive end of C8) is 10K. R10 (between the collector of Q1 the positive end of C7) is 10K also.

    Yep, it's definitely 10K in my relative location. Would removing that (putting it on a toggle) accomplish the same thing, even though it's a different value?

    Modded Hyped Fuzz-boss FZ-2w 🤡

    Yeah, just noticed that in your pic. Mine must be older - it's 10K on mine in that same position on the PCB. I just downloaded the current build doc, and will adjust accordingly. :cool: Thx again

    Modded Hyped Fuzz-boss FZ-2w 🤡

    I'm showing R11 is 10K. Am I looking at that incorrectly?

    Modded Hyped Fuzz-boss FZ-2w 🤡

    Very cool, thx! I don't have the patience to strip my case and start over, so I'll add an internal on/off DIP switch down the road. Thx for sharing that mod.

    Modded Hyped Fuzz-boss FZ-2w 🤡

    Interested as well - I'm waiting on a short-lever toggle switch that should be here this week - the build is ready to box up, but I'd love an 'octave off' option. (because I love options)

    Gauss Drive/XB-MB - run higher than 9V?

    Sounds good - someone asked about it on TGP, but I wanted to check here in case someone had discussed it with PPCB's versions. I'll stick with 9V.

    Gauss Drive/XB-MB - run higher than 9V?

    Quick question: Can the Gauss or XB-MB (roughly the same circuit) run at a higher voltage than 9V? What is the max limit?

    A David Gilmour Inspired Strat - Redux

    NICE! I just sent them my set of Guild LB-1 humbuckers to rewind/upgrade.

    Why is there no official schematic for the Ibanez Sonic Distortion?

    Yes, that one. Please take no offense, I'm well aware that PPCB, Aion and Madbean all offer SD9 clone boards. My question is just about an official schematic not being available, seemingly anywhere.

    Why is there no official schematic for the Ibanez Sonic Distortion?

    Seems like there is a schem available for almost everything Ibanez, and it makes sense that there aren't ones for some of the rarer pedals. But the Sonic Distortion is pretty widely available (maybe not as affordable as they once were, but still). I've seen Dirk Hendrik's schematic, and...

    Yes, another buffer question

    Sorry, have to ask and the search I ran on the forums were specific to particular builds. My query is more general: as most of my pedals are DIY and true-bypass, I'd like to incorporate buffers in some, if not half, of them (maybe alternating buffered-->true BP --> buffered, etc). What is a...

    DEMO Dirty Sanchez

    Nice! I built the Brown Betty config, and keep going back/forth on which one I like better: that, or the Complex OD (Smallbox OD). I made an adapter board to use two BAV99 transistors as diodes, just like the Friedmans. The Brown Betty is just classic rock in a box.
