What, no RAT, BMP, or FF? I feel as though those are rites of passages in the DIY community.

Already have the Ratsbane and forgot about fuzz face. What's BMP?

I just finished the Kewpie today. Creamy dreamy thick fuzz with a lot of diversity.

I would go with the Caesar Chorus. I changed the way I sound.

I'd recommend a very specific one that is unlike the ones you built so far: fuzz aldrin. It's kind of fuzz face but kind of an overdrive, and everything in between.

You need more weird stuff. Curds n Whey is only medium weird not full on leprechaun weird.

 

[Coda]

Build the Trombetta Mini-Bone…

What's weird about Curds n Whey? (wondering if I need this)

This is definitely being added to my list.

The Curds N Whey sounds like a fart machine I like the leprechaun better.

I'm torn between that and the Dream Fuzz.

I just finished the Kewpie today. Creamy dreamy thick fuzz with a lot of diversity.

Just listened to a demo of the Kewpie and I think it sounds great!

Build the Trombetta Mini-Bone…

Not really digging the sound of it.

The ADHD with buffered bypass is a kick-ass pedal. Way better than the OCD in my opinion.

 

[giovanni]

I would highly recommend the Benson Preamp. I also recently built the Powder Blue which is surprisingly versatile and really nice sounding.

It's a Wavefolding Distortion. It reacts to your playing dynamics, tone and volume controls in an almost envelope filter fashion

It's especially tasty paired with a suboctave circuit -

 

[DailyDovetails]

Mercurial boost does a lot of different tone shaping. Hydra delay is a nice sounding delay that you can turn on multi taps and has an age(filtering) control, I would build both the OP amp and a transistor BMP. I’m building the Fuzz aldrin next and then the Kewpie which are both kind of BMP derived. Persica looks cool also almost a LM386 powered BMP.

More modulation and color! Some favorites that should work well with your dirt selection:

Thanks for all of the suggestions!

I had completely forgotten that I bought these for a fuzz face build.
