What's the guts like? I know the guts isn't your part of the equation, just curious
It uses fuzzdog boards, which are so nicely laid out. Everything is pcb mounted and they include a pcb for all the controls and a separate pcb for the lower stomps and leds. It looks like the inside of the black hole pedal that you have ;)

The Cozybuilder Moon Stone Deluxe. It's what we believe to be a work-a-like of the Wyllie New Moon, which is like a supercharged version of the Moonrock.

Veros for all three flavors, schematic for the Deluxe (just snip out what you don't need);

And the video. Just one problem with the video though; This video is a bit deceptive where the swell section is concerned, because the camera's mic is actually able to pick up the picked string acoustically before the note swells out of the amp. The Explorer is really resonant, and it really doesn't do it justice. That's the price you pay for trying not to clip the mic. At volume, the swell, set just right, is awesome. Single note runs take on a new dimension when each note blooms in. The Deluxe allows for much more control of the swell, so the runs can be played quite a bit faster than what can be achieved with the original 2 knob version. Every guitar you plug into this pedal will offer you something different. Anywho, my wife actually commented for the first time EVER!! that she thought that the swell effect sounded really cool. So... good enough for her... good enough for me. On with the show...

Thanks very much for posting this, I'd not heard of it before and I really like the sound of that swell fuzz. Definitely adding it to my long list of things I want to build :)

That Drumthing is cool! Is it just springs and a contact mic? What does the knob do?

My first pedal! It's a slightly modified 7 min fuzz (bazz fuss) from http://www.diyguitarpedals.com.au/shop/index.php It took way longer than 7 minutes, ha! (Probably shouldn't have used a 1590A for my first build)

I thought I was just terrible at soldering but it turns out those Weller guns aren't the best for this type of work and the huge tip wasn't helping either. :picard:

Anyway, bought a better iron and was able to do this simple fuzz build. It turned out alright except that I had an issue with the polycrylic clear coat which you can see around the footswitch. I already have a few mod ideas for the next one:)
