Had put this Madbean Egghead Overdrive board together AGES ago but never actually put the pedal together.
I fucking HATE overdrive, but this one is actually really awesome and sounds pretty natural.
Dime the gain and the tone all the way up, really awesome grind to it.

Demeter Tremulator clone

cool!

I try to refrain from posting here so as to not be spammy but I had a ton of fun with one...



A custom build I just finished. I'm calling this one the "GMT" or "Gamut Meet Tonebender". It's a Tonebender MK II into a Gamut with external biases for both circuits, a bi-color LED, and a knob and graphic layout that happened to work in my favor. Lots of fun and a LOT of germanium transistors

SO GOOD

do you screen print on those enclosures yourself or get them made?

Dude... what in the fuck?!

That thing looks/sounds awesome. I want a pedal that has a keyhole.

EDIT: I want to get into pedal building. I really don't know where to start. My hands are kind of shaky so I need to start off with easier projects.

Maybe it's time to get some ARC in my life.

Here are shots of Delta's Fuzz Face. As close as I could get to Emanating Fist/Black Acid Specs. Mojo caps and resistors where I could.
BC109 silcon transistors, socketed for good measure. Also put the focus/pregain control on it too, it's a nice way to clean up how filthy this thing gets.

Badass! I dig the enclosure.

I tackled a FF tonight myself



Not sure why but I wanted to give PTP another shot

That's awesome!!

Hey Aaron, can you shoot me a sketch of the layout you used for PTP'ing that rangemaster you did? I'm about to make one myself and make sure I get the layout correct.

I just followed the schematic - same with that fuzz face. Best place to start is input and output caps and work your way in. With the FF it was nice because I had a ground rail as well so it made those connections super easy.

Gotcha. I've been using the Pidgeon FX layout but I've been getting a little confused. Might just look at a vero layout and translate it on paper a little better for myself.

What are the 4 controls on the FF? Volume/Fuzz/Tone/Bias?

Pre-gain/Volume/Fuzz/Bias

Ah! Awesome. I think the pre-gain really comes in handy with FF's. Still fuzzy as hell, but more cutting and tight!
