Yes, guts please! I am curious about this circuit. I love the silver vein enclosure with those knobs. I was thinking of something similar for a Superfuzz/Standard Fuzz-type thing.

Were you able to sort out the issues with the slow gear/tremolo redesign?


I've only just sent off the pcb designs this weekend it'll take a few weeks before I get pcbs back and know if the issues are fixed. Fingers crossed.

My first complete pedal build. I have a few others that I am awaiting parts for, but this one is complete. Its a Marshall Bluesbreaker and I added a bit more lower end to the fuzz. I might put in a toggle for it this week.

I did... Do you know how to make it look more like the cap? The larger hammered marks. Do I need to do a crazy think coat? I really like the hammered look paint but I wanted something a little more extreme than the results I got. I'm sure I'm doing it wrong.

Yeah, you have to use a thick coat on it. Ideally you should bake it to harden the finish as well. It makes the hammering more pronounced.

bake as in a toaster oven that you buy used from St. Vinny's / Goodwill.

Don't bake paint in the oven you eat out of, kids! :snax:

Definitely not a toaster/over you cook in. Thanks for catching that, Mathias.
