B:ASSMASTER

[Summertime]

Hello Stuff !

Sick pedal i wish you had in your catalog.

Do you have somthing close to him i can try to build?

 

[Mentaltossflycoon]

This makes me wonder if the malekko diabolik is worth looking into too. Justin Meldal-Johnson's signature pedal is likely a great bass fuzz and I've heard people say it's in the realm of the assmaster. I've only seen demos though.

 

[Feral Feline]

There are already B(r)assmaster clones out there, but a Diabolik — that would interest me to see what's under its hood.

 

[Summertime]

Iv'e seen clones of it online.
Im looking for the PCB of it.
Im not thet great at reading schematics so i wonder if theres is a DIY pcb i can try to build of it.

Haven't heard about Diabolic. Will look into it right now!

To clarify:
In post #3 I was referring to clone PCBs on offer — if you need a PCB of the B(r)assmaster they already exist.
If @PedalPCB offers a PCB of the circuit, I hope it's a clone of the Diabolik variant.

Where can i find the pcb clone?
Fuzzdog does not ship to my country...

I hope they listen to our prayers

Another "brassmaster inspired" pedal. Might be an interesting take.

 

[Feral Feline]

I've got the Madbean Boom Boom, and the VFE PCB for the Woodchipper, IIRC.

Now, about that Diabolik...

 

[Coda]

I built one that came from MBP, I think. It’s pretty great. Wasn’t too bad a build, and was designed for a 1590BB, using a unique stacked daughterboard for the transformer…

 

[Feral Feline]

The Fuzz Dog one has a stacked daughterboard, MBP Boom Boom not stacked but beautiful anyway.

That must be the one I built then. I was super impressed.

 

[Feral Feline]

I was impressed, too, with the Fuzz Dog stacker — clever way to reduce the transformer-height problem.
I've wanted that board (and daughterboard) for a long time, but then wound up with MBP because of shear convenience (was ordering some other stuff when the BoomBoom became available). I wish more transformer-based builds had the Fuzz Dog approach.

 

[benny_profane]

I wish more transformer-based builds had the Fuzz Dog approach.

The MBP Retrograde uses a similar technique.

 

[Feral Feline]

The MBP Retrograde uses a similar technique.

And the MBP Edgelord, but daughterboard being for a mode-switch instead of a transformer.

 

[megabelkins5000]

fwiw I have the impression that Malekko's Assmaster model is not a simple reissue of the Brassmaster but a step forward for the concept, and I remain very interested in seeing at least a schematic of it, if not the ideal of a full-on clone pcb.

 

[Robert]

I'm working on a transformer daughterboard for the Duocast, so yep, this is doable.

I’ve had the diabolik for awhile and I love it.. on guitar too…
Just picked up an B:assmaster the other day…
Haven’t had a lot of time to play with it yet…
