Hi
After building my first kit I totally have the bug for this stuff .
The pedal Im interested at this point is the Color Sound Supa Tone Bender . Im aware that it is basically a Early version Big Muff with a few changes .
Do any of you guys have any info or built any of these ?? Ive see a few clones but there is not much out there on these pedals . You always see the other variants of them .
There was also a reissue of it called the Steve Hackett Model . Ive checked out the GGG Big Muff kits and was wondering if I can just do one from the Triangle Version Kit ?
I think its possible I just need to figure out what changes to make ..
Thanks for any help

I think removing the first stage of diodes (D1 and D2) should essentially give you the Color Sound Supa Tone Bender.
Check here for that info and more Big Muff mods: http://rkerkhof.ruhosting.nl/Taas/Mods/Big%20Muff.htm.

I think the diodes are the major difference but I'm sure some component values differ as well.
