So this was my goofy bilf submission, I thought I could put some more info here though.

This is a fuzz with three jfet cascode gain stages. The idea was to get something with the kind of compressed saturated sound you can get from the pentode setting on the Pretty Years, and I'm not sure this gets all the way there but I'm pretty happy! It just has gain and two volumes. The second foot switch lets you bypass the last gain stage and there's an independent volume for each mode. I'll post some clips as soon as I figure out what the fuck is wrong with my camera :grumpy:

Buffered effects Loop + spring reverb board for my Laney AOR! Got it working this afternoon, stoked! It's also only a few minor component changes to use outside of an amp so I'm planning to build my own stand alone spring reverb tank setup with another of the boards since I got 10. I'll probably sell the rest on here/madbean/diystomp if anyone is interested.

I built up the last of my Acetone fm-2 boards but I went for as small as I could fit the PCB this time. I'm happy with how it came out but I don't enjoy tight builds. The outside would of looked great too but there's something wrong with our laser etcher at work and it kept cutting out so the text came out patchy... I guess it has a "reliced" look haha

One fuzzdog kit, one bakelite knob and an evening's soldering later and I have an SHO

Thought I'd give some of the less used label maker characters a workout.

the first enclosure looks like a ct5, then the case rotated 180 degrees, then ct5 milled again, maybe multiple times, then also a your and you're or maybe puhzing pattern milled. the cases were just sittins from the scrap box sort of deal. hopefully end of next week we will have all the changes we wanted to make on the cnc and i can show more a full run.

here is more upclose picture of the vise, "rev b"
