    Equilux Mini

    Nothing special, just a straight up Equilux Mini. Also my 75th build. Wanted some EQ on my board, and reading the raving reviews of this one, I thought I'd give it a try. Haven't played with it that much, but I thikn I'll like it, to switch on a boost of certain frequency, or getting some lo-fi...

    Aion Meridian (Bass version)

    My brother-in-law asked me to make a pedal for his brother, who's a well-versed guitarist who recently got into bass playing. After some discussion on what he was after for sound, some research and some consultation on the forum later, I settled on the bass version of the Aion Meridian, a clone...

    Dizzy Elk Gets RAD!

    Just me adding my build report to the numerous excellent ones popping in the last couple of weeks. @peccary contacted me as he was getting the boards for his Dizzy Elk project and wanted some RAD 90s graphics for his build. After sending me some images for inspiration, we settled on what became...

    Tremulus Lune (PPCB Trembling Loon)

    In my evergoing quest to find a tremolo, I think I finally have one that will stay on my board for a while (might try the Pendulous in the future, who knows!) I just boxed it yesterday, so I have a bit more fiddling to do, but I like what the controls do as it gives you different usable options...

    Chrome Dome / GTC Bloody Finger

    I’m about to build this on stripboard, but looking at the revision for the Chrome Dome VS the layout at tagboardeffects, the 100u electro has been replaced by a 47u. Can someone enlighten me on which I should use?

    ANIMELLES Ge-FET Boost (Mountain Oyster Boost)

    Here's my take on the Mountain Oyster Boost. Don't have much to add to what's been said in previous build reports, it really makes stuff shines as a boost/dirty boost, with enough grit to hold its own. I particularly found it paired well with my main low/mid gain OD (ModèleB/Barbershop). Went...

    FV-1 Development Board

    I was lucky to be gifted this board by our resident year-long-Santa @fig (and chief elf @Robert who provided the board with the soldered FV-1 and CH341A, many thanks sir!!!). So I decided to wrap it up in a nice package, using the matte orange sand texture from Tayda. The paint feels less grainy...

    DOD Death Metal

    This is a clone of the DOD FX86b Death Metal Distortion on a board from my buddy Matt at Dirt Monger Instruments. It adds a knob for the Gain (where the OG was always dimmed), and a buffer to tame the noise when everything's maxed. I quickly tried it and found it well articulated, and was happy...

    Conqueror Fuzz

    A rarely get people approaching me for commission work, but I do enjoy it quite a bit (probably because I seldom do it...). So I got contacted by someone whose partner bought my Simulcast for his birthday this summer, as he had a board for the Conqueror, but never got into building pedals. As he...

    HWUT Fuzz

    Just a little HWUT Fuzz Couldn't have done it without the help of @Guardians of the analog who graciously sent me a 2p4t when I was in need. <3 I'll echo what's been said in other build reports: the 2nd position on the rotary sounds the best. With that being said, I'll play a bit with the...

    Conqueror Fuzz mishap

    Was too eager to finish this one (should've waited and not worked late night), and I put the wrong cap and pulled the pad of the positive lead of C16. Would I be good if I connect the positive lead to this point of R17 ?

    Dizzy Tone (PedalPCB GNAT)

    This one wouldn't have been possible without the help of @peccary and GOTA. Elka Dizzy Tone on the GNAT pcb. Just tried it briefly after building it yesterday, but I loved the tone, and I can't wait to give it a try on some synth waves. Really shines when timed, but I need to play with it a bit...

    EHX LPB-1 / GOTA Power Boost

    Seeing @Paradox916's post this week made me think I forgot to post mine. Nothing much more to add to what's been said about this one (meaning I haven't fully played with it yet as my guitar playing has been on the side lately). Nonetheless, a nice boost and a nice addition to my board. I just...

    Parasit Relay Board

    I have a couple of these Parasit Relay Board on hand. How would I hook them up to PPCB boards? I’m guessing Send to board In and Return to board Out, but what do I do about the GND and SW pads, and the LED pad on the board (leave them alone, jumper, ??)?

    Tape Echo (Magnetron)

    Nothing special here, just a stock build of the Magnetron. Pretty smooth build except for a dud LED (which I haven’t checked beforehand), and I managed to put the replacement one backwards at first… I also thought it wasn’t working properly at first, because I had the Level knob fully CCW. I had...

    Parasit Studio Raygun Youth Chaos Fuzz

    Had a lot on my plate with other life stuff recently, so this was slow to take form, but decided to finish it last night. I really like @mdc 's take on this build, so when I saw it I wanted to build one for myself as I was in the middle of a handful of strip board builds. You can see I used a...

    Overdrive Preamp 250 (vero)

    Wanted to do this for the Pedals for Ukraine DOD250 thing first, but stuff got in the way. But I got a reminder on Friday for the silent auction that's being held by the Association of Canadian Archivists to support Ukrainian archival institutions, and well, being a Canadian archivist myself, I...

    Ge Fuzz Face

    A while ago, a fine gentleman you might know as @fig sent me a goodie bag containing components to breadboard and build a Germanium Fuzz Face. I then designed this little tribute in a 1590B format to keep the "face" factor. I had some time lately and I'm doing some Vero builds, so I went with...

    Simulcast (déjà-vu)

    The Simulcast was one of the first pedal I built for myself, and I loved it with my rig. I even rehoused it when I started to get into UV prints. Then, I wanted to try a Duocast, and the one I made sounded quite good also. Even though I loved it, I decided to sell it to make a bit of room on my...
