PedalPCB Spirit Box/EQD Ghost Echo

OD is Glorious

Well-known member
I put this together this afternoon. Lovely reverb pedal with more options than the Sproing and less options than the Deflector or the Gravitation. Might be your sweet spot. For me the Sproing was not enough and the Deflector was too much. I loved the Gravitation and this one is in second. You can get great slap back delay from this pedal.

I used a Tayda gray powder coated enclosure with the PedalPCB top jack plate, I went with 15mm black knobs to match the black graphics. The LED is a 5mm blue diffused and the jacks are switchcraft. If you go with this pedal you will need to pay for the 15 dollar BTDR module. I saw there was enough space for my rotund 100u caps so I threw them in there.

Edit: I almost forgot... I deviated from the build based on a several comments posted here. R4 calls for a 10k resistor and I used an 18k. I cannot tell you what it sounds like with the 10k but I like it with the 18.

Looks great. Nice and clean.
Hey wait a sec! No 1590A?? ;)

I built the Spirit Box about 2 years ago and it's lived on my board ever since. Hope you enjoy it!

If you're interested, there's another mod that allows you to dial in some self-oscillation, just switch the Dwell knob to a B25K.

Thanks for the comments. It seems to be a very nice reverb. If I build another I will try that B25k mod. I love the options.
