Congrats on a job well done.  

Looks good

A toast to many more successful builds

[Bagge]

Nice job!

I remember, how it felt to plug in the first built, and find out that it actually works.  

How did you mount the DC power jack? Is it mounted on plastic to isolate from the enclosure?

[JimRayden]

Wow. I really love that look. Red and simplistic. Fun name. Cool back panel. Oh, by the way, what is it? A Fuzz Face?

I gotta see the innards and some clips.

Looks sweet.

Thanks guys!!

Bagge, I've mounted de DC on a plastic board, with the two jacks (AMP and INST) hehehehe...
I've fixed the plasitc board inside the box using the jacks!
And...yes! I've used this plastic board, to isolate from enclosure!
JimRayden, this circuit is called "FOLKFUZZ" but I did some mods...just a few mods in some values...
I tried to mount a Fuzz Face and a Vox Tone Bender...but there's no germanium transistors for sell in Brasil  ...

Well...here is the link for soundclips again:

Thanks!!!!!

[JimRayden]

It's not just one of the best looking pedal I've seen, it also sounds killer. Maybe that's because I'm a total blues fan. And maybe you've got some really good gear to play through. The sound clips sound real good.

You rock

PS: Turn the fuzz or guitar vol down on the Little Wing a bit. Has to sound a tad cleaner.

Jim, It was recorded with a Peavey Rage (15w) and a japanese Squier from the 80's! With bigger amps I've reached a very good and fat sound!
I've used Sonar...but I didn't mix and equalize the sound clips...You are hearing exactly what I get here...!!! The mic is a very cheap Shure...same for the soundboard!

Thank's for the advice..I'll remember that next time!!!! :wink:  

Well...once again...Tahnks!!!!!!

[Steben]

What's that colour?
Wine red? Burgundy? ...
One of the best colours one can use with white & black. Congrats, mister.

So its silicon transistor fuzz right? Nice to really see what they mean with "never discard silicon".

[LivingDeadPunk]

Nice and simple, very good job mate.

[petemoore]

Great Job !!!  

[Foka]

Thanks guys!!!!

Steben, the the color is "Metalic Red"..but it ended up this way...hehehehhe...as I said, it lost a little bit of original shine!
But I like the final result too!!!!
Yes...its a silicon fuzz!

Thanks again!
