Let's see your finished DIY projects!

Awesome! Out of curiosity, how does it sound on bass?

I have not tried it yet, but I will try in the near future.

I'm looking forward to that

As am I!

Nice build and concept. Clips of that would be awesome

Thanks, guys!

I gotta agree with everybody, that's pretty neat.

I've been on ILF for a long time and never knew about this thread

Man that joystick build looks amazing!

I finished this enclosure for someone the other day. Not really my style at all, but was commissioned by someone on a builder forum as part of a trade and turned out pretty neat.

Heya, first time poster here. I've had tons of help lurking around here, so I thought I'd finally post something. Here's my two most recent builds.

Woolly Mammoth (kinda):


Pharaoh:


Both are keepers and have a spot in my pedalboard. The Pharaoh is hands down the best BMP-style pedal I've tried, and the Mammoth works great for really thick leads.

Next up is an original (to the extent where a fuzz box can be original these days) design, which is in a way a Frankenstein's monster between a bazz fuss, a fuzz face and a BMP.

Awesome builds dude. And your original creation sounds like a great idea. When you build it, post some clips and I will consider buying one.

Thank you very much! It's still in the prototype stage (needs a couple of tweaks), but here's a small clip of how it sounds into a clean amp right now: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/180 ... v1%201.mp3

...and here's a mockup of the layout: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/180 ... p%203d.jpg

Sounds pretty good now. Can't wait to hear it after those tweaks. Sounds like it would be awesome for stoner/doom. Does it clean up with the guitars volume control?

Cheers! It cleans up pretty nice, and it's actually designed to have an input gain instead of a fuzz knob

[Ben79]

OC44 Rangemaster with input cap blend pot between 0.0047 and 0.1uf and 4.7k bias pot (that has no effect on the sound!). Quite pleased I managed to mash it all into that little french sweet tin I bought last year at a flea market for EU0.20.

Was ready to start debugging ground issues but it worked first time and sounds ace - stoked!

Nice work! I'm in the process of building a nos FF type thing into a similar tin (old film can).

[Ben79]

Thanks. FF in another old tin is my next project, with switchable input caps and bias pot. Rangemaster into a FF seems to be basically a TB MkII so that's a lot of different tones from 2 pedals - seems to make sense. Probably gonna sell them.

My second and third builds ever, a Hyperion and a Shoe Gazer.

I'm still waiting on LEDs for the SG, but I'm super happy I built things that fuzz.

In other news, I have a sneaking suspicion I bought the wrong capacitor to build my Pep Box.

[KaosCill8r]

just a sneaking suspicion.

Fuckin' Hell

What's the capacitance on it?
