Urmm, kinda, kinda not... no FET Matchings and all easily available parts and being a PCB, it is paint by numbers basically but also, got the extra LPB-1 option to remove the volume loss so that's more switch wiring to go wrong, also it's a kinda works or it doesn't effect, wouldn't take it as a first build but if you've built a few things before, don't see why you couldn't get it working, no trimmers or anything to bias.

The aqua puss is easy to source chips for, aslong as you don't go for the 3005 chip option, just do the 3205 or 3208 chip and you can get it all from smallbear, the V571, V3205 & V3102 are all you need and smallbear stocks them all.

The Electric mistress will hopefully be way cool, taking my time getting round to finishing that one though but parts are on the way finally... TZF just kicks the crap out of normal flanging.

yeah i was thinking along the lines of the 3005 but i crossed that out after awhile

so the boost is apart of the circuit or an add on on a different board?

It's a EHX LPB-1 Booster but it's optional, it's on the PCB but it has its own inputs and outputs so you don't have to use it, it needs switching though if you do use it because in vibrato mode the pedal is unity gain but in phase mode, it's not because of the True Bypass (where as the original wasn't true bypass) so you wire it to be switched out when you swap over... unless you hardwire the pedal to either Phase or Vibrato mode.

(All the build info you'll need is there too)
Postage is $1.25 for up to 2 boards in the U.S, $2.25 for up to 2 outside the U.S.

And no :lol: I do exactly the same thing, but I do intend to atleast build all mine up, I have my pedalboard planned out... just need the cash for the parts!

My atari punk console is finished. Photos already posted, scroll up. Its in a little hammond 1590LB case. Aprox 1"x2"x2". Its my first pedal, circuit layout by me and its all stuffed in there. The board is touching the bottom plate but its isolated with special paper. The jack is pressed up against the potom of the pot but it fits nice. Wire salvaged from dead pc's. Its got mojo. Took 6 hours today to solder and design.

super simple compared to everything else on this thread but something i've been meaning to build right.
orange sunshine fuzz!i think it sounds nice and gritty but theres not enough sustain.maybe mess with cap values
or the resistor between t1 base and t2 emmitter? :idk:
i'll probably toss this aside once i get my snowflake pcb though. :yay:

Put a boost before it and you will have more sustain.
