What good is a DIY forum if all we can do is SEE what people build? Let's HEAR it! I got a decent recording setup today, so I thought I'd kick this thread off... with sloppy playing and total n00b recording technique haha.

Am I the only one who records clips of stuff they build/mod?

I modded another Sovtek Big Muff Pi today. They're a lot of fun to mess around with.

I don't build, but I have a pedal built by our very own stanimal that I absolutely adore. I could do up a demo of that? :idk:

Your vibrato has given me a boner ever since it came out. Should I go to the emergency room?

Germanium Muff - in both clips I start with the sustain at noon, jam a little bit, then turn it up all the way

Dot bridge humbucker --> :animal: --> Carvin X100B clean channel

Dot neck humbucker --> :animal: --> Carvin X100B clean channel

My hands were still warming up, so I wasn't play at my best... which is still pretty bad! :lol:

I built a Tonebender MKII with sockets to audition germanium transistors. I recorded these clips with my favorite set so far...

Tele --> TBMKII --> Crate V18 amp set loud and clean

ARGGGH!!! CLOUUUUUUDSCAAAAPPPESSS (a la shatner in Wrath of Kahn)!!!!!!

yeah, that vibrato has had my panties in a twist for years, thanks for teasing us some more dude.... :thumb: releasing a schematic would be quite generous, considering you aren't building them and there's such demand... i know i just want one and would have preferred yours to dropping the $$$ on a damn BYOC that still doesn't work.....

who me? :?: well I suppose I could release the schematic and source code for the AVR
its pretty messy though. I should learn about better-looking schematic software
