The Virus - Prototype for Kosta. Made to match another thing of mine he got.

The MSF (Meth Shark Fuzz) - Devi Multi for Blooghost. He asked it to be left raw as he has a bad ass paint job planned. What a cool pedal this turned out to be (for an equally cool dude) :animal:

Image


Last up, a Wizard Fountain clone - Added extra clipping options and a momentary feedback loop w/ control.

This will be my first contributing photo post here!
I always come for the doom, so I'll stay for the doom.

Anyway, here are some custom pedals I built for a local doom-gaze band called White Walls.
They wanted the blue beard fuzz so I gave them the fuzz wall.

I'm starting to love using huge LEDs… they keep getting bigger...

This is an EP Booster with an internal charge pump. The switch on top selects between 9V and 18V.

A couple of miscellaneous notes about the build:

1.) If you can't read the text by the 9V/18V switch it's because the pedal is speaking in tongues NOT because I chose an absurdly small font.

2.) I used a slightly lower CLR than I usually do with this type of LED, so when the pedal is turned on, you are blinded by a bright white light.

I made one of these before for a buddy of mine, but another friend saw it and pestered me until I made him one. I didn't feel like dealing with labels, so I had Pedal Parts Plus print the enclosure for me. The box is absurdly-sized (it could fit in an enclosure a third the size). It's obviously a delay pedal, based on the Deep Blue Delay. And yes, the box is bigger on the inside. :-)

Here is my DIY analog MultiFX built in a recycled ethernet hub/switch.

Features:

2 X Tube Screamer
BSIAB
DS-1 / MXR Dist+
Booster
Compressor
Chorus
Tremolo
Delay
2 FX send/return (pre & post distortion) for adding external pedals
Condor cab sim + Ruby amp + jam along line in (headphones practice)
Internal regulated 3A power supply + output jack to power external pedals

I built it when I had my band, bcuz I was bored to setup all these pedals/cables.

Pickdropper, that delay looks excellent! How much/easy was the setup with PPP for just one decal?

Not that bad, me and the wires are good friends :) I built it 5 years ago when I began with electronic things.. In fact I have unboxed some diy pedals I had, and then put everything in this box, it is a prototype, just like a big pedal with several circuits inside. Perhaps it would be better to make a large single circuit and make it all cleaner, I can do it but.. since then I never had to open it other than to change a 3PDT footswitch. It has served me well .. :thumb: Once a guy offered me $600 and I refused! I have too many good memories in that thing! :hug:
