Cream Pie Fuzz

[Mentaltossflycoon]

So I was already planning to do this goof on her name on a pedal to give to a friend. When I read folks making fun of leds without holders and leds as eyes in the It's All in Good Fun thread, inspiration struck. Those aren't bypass indicators though. Pretty fun to play since they flicker along, higher the gain brighter the jewelry.

Also, thanks to Chuck D. Bones for your advice on the opamp. Tl072 is definitely an improvement.

Cream pie is another great board, great circuit, especially for bass. I've done 4 frantone pedals thus far: Cream pie, peach fuzz, lo tone, and bassifrass. I almost feel like the cream and peach have more low end than the two actual bass specific fuzzes. Lo tone is still my favorite but I'll probably make another cream pie for myself eventually. It's thiiicccc. It definitely handles my octave pedals nicely.

Love the artwork.

And yes on all the Frantone remarks. I have build the same 4 pedals and as a bassist I love them all. Low end for days.

Maybe the Peach is my favourite?

My LoTone has sooo much low end on tap, I call it the Drone Tone.

Edit, fun fact: I added clipping options to the Bassifrass and when my guitarist tried it, it sounded almost identical the Gamechanger Plasma pedal with all the diodes lifted.

That's great, that led placement is brilliant!
