zero's various pedal builds

Magnetron, with momentary feedback, and trimpot to control that feedback.
Feedback still uncontrollable.

Kinda wish the wobble in this was a little stronger. Had to max out the gain trimmer too to get it as strong as I liked it.
I also reversed the LEDs on the front so the rate is at the top and the other at the bottom.
I too had to crank the gain trimmer.

Two Tone Fuzz
Q1 MP42B 49hfe, 63uA
Q2 MP20A 50hfe, 63uA
Q3 MP20A 80hfe, 184uA

20K trimmer on R7 here too.
I like bias & impedance both up full with my Tele, with a flick of the switch get the Fuzz Face and Tone Bender MkII sounds really nicely, as such Twin Face and Tone Vendor both for sale.

Double Muff, Green Russian and Hitzumitas. I tried to build it so that the tone knob worked the same way on both models, and despite flipping the tone parts (as per my other thread) the scoop is one way on the GR and another on the H...not sold on the massive knobs either. Have a War scythe and Muffin factory in the queue as well.

GCI socialist jr.
Initial thoughts are I quite like the sound, will need to keep playing with it.
The PCB needs PCB pin switches, so I had to order long arms, which I hate, and the two outer switches are up down, while the mids switch is left right. Abomination PCB design 😔

GCI NEW HM-2
Wanted to see if splitting the EQ would be good, I do love my Promethium. In my opinion I found that when playing with the GCI, where I preferred to have the high and mid was actually in line - so I guess I'll stick with my Promethium build.

You can change the mid gyrator eq to that of the tube screamer, so around 700Hz to get some more seperation between the mids and highs.
 
I mean i guess is that when I played my guitar into it, i found it wasnt doing anything my promethium wasnt already, so im happy to let it go.
