PPCB Sabbath Distortion Preview

Build Rating

5.00 star(s)

I have an enclosure coming from Tayda for this one. I ordered it almost a month ago, so with a little luck it might arrive before next year. I recently got a bunch of new smd components and adapter boards that were burning a hole in my pocket, so I built this thing and put it in a test box pending Tayda Touchdown.

I had good intentions of DIY-ing Chuck’s mods onto this PCB. But then Evil Homer on my shoulder whispered in my ear, “you have the Boneyard circuit on your breadboard, why not build this one out to BOM specs?” So I did.

The gain on tap with this pedal is fucking BRUTAL. There is no clean setting. There is no slightly overdriven setting. There is violent, rude, loud, responsive, rich distortion and I love it.

Will update after the Tayda delivery gets here and I rehouse it. The smd fets are on the other side of the adapter boards btw. Pics For now:

I used mmbf4393. I also have a small supply of through-hole mpf4393s but just wanted to use the new toys lol.

Nice! Are you planning to use the same graphics and ventilation shaft on the new enclosure?

Ventilation shaft! If any circuit needs one, it might just be this one
