Hi folks, any particular voltages for the British Royalty Overdrive? I got mine to around 4.5v and it sounds very close to the demos I’ve heard. Maybe not quite as much breakup on mine so that’s why I was wondering if I should just set the trimmers by ear once I get them in range.

I made a Lumpy’s Tone Shop Lemon Drop on vero like six or seven years ago. I came to really like it a lot and it’s been pretty much my main pedal since then. But lately I feel like the distortion has become kind of over saturated compared with how it usually sounds and there doesn’t seem to be...

I have a few enclosures that I ended up liking better than the circuits that went in them, so rather than let them sit there unused I've been looking for something to swap in. The orange one was a transistor Muff Fuzz that just never really did it for me. But I really like the way the...

Finally finished up these MKIs I've had on the bench for several months. I love them!! These are generic PNP sets I got recently from Small Bear. I started out with them in the MKI circuit on a breadboard (first time breadboarding for me). I created on layout on perf (another first for me) and...

I've been using Papilio Inkjet waterslide decal paper for years but decided to try the Sunnyscopa paper because it's easier to find and slightly cheaper. I did the same process I had been doing for the Papilio paper. When I apply the decal there's often a little area around the drill holes where...

I got my MKI set up on the breadboard (first breadboard project BTW) and it sounds quite good. So I took my components from the breadboard and soldered them in to a vero board based on an existing layout, but it just doesn't sound the same. It still sounds good overall but there's a bunch of...

Is there is already a discussion thread for the new HeadPhone Amplifier project? If not, can someone fill me in on what it's all about?

Hi folks, here's my Mojito Deluxe build! I found some BA482 diodes to make sure I get all the magic. I'm still playing it to see how it fits in with my other gear, it's very flexible and sounds good at a variety of settings so I'm trying to figure out how I want to use it. Surprised to find I...

Hey Gang, I put this together a while back and had always intended to post a build report. It's a cool old school fuzz that should definitely get more love than it does so I made a quick demo vid and here we are. The enclosure originally housed an ROG Tri-Vibe from back when a younger me wasn't...

Hi guys, I just put together my Mojito build and I'm not getting any sound at all from the output. Oddly, when I use an audio probe on Lug 2 of the Output pot it sounds like the circuit is working fine, all the controls work and it sounds great. When I test with my DMM I'm getting continuity...

Hi Folks, Chuck D Bones graciously posted his layout for his iteration of the BJFE Folk Fuzz with switching options between LEDs, silicon, and transistor clipping (which in my version is germanium diode clipping). It's a pretty nice sound and a little different than the usual tonebenders and...
