Springs are cool. Springs you can touch are Super-Coolio.

Re: Let's see your finished DIY projects!
Thanks again Ben. No, my moms doesn't play guitar, but she does play the church organ. The reverb circuit came out of a late 1960s Lowery TLO-r organ (Don't tell my mom. She probably won't miss it since she never uses the reverb setting but just to be on the safe side...don't tell my mom) which I have modified for use with electric guitar. The Lowery TLO-r organ schematic can be found online and the reverb schematic lies therein. The modifications are not too difficult to figure out.Ben79 wrote:John that reverb sounds wonderful and i love watching your demos. Do you have a schematic for it?

Re: Let's see your finished DIY projects!
Hey guys! Here's the fist finished prototype of my new pedal design, the Dagon OD120. It's a foundation overdrive, mimicing the preamp of a post-'74 Orange OR120.

This is one of the most amazing pedal builds I have ever seen. You have outdone yourself. The eyes are just the cherry on top.
