cheers!. ive been building these for less than 6months...but previous to that i was addicted to the BYOC stuff, however they werent challenging enough and got a bit too pricey. i basically started trying to clone a JHF-1 fuzzface pedal i had bought after openning it up and seeing how little parts there were. i spent ages working out how to get schematics onto veroboard and was sucessfull...but didnt realise there was a HUGE online community/resouces for all this stuff.

im trying not to copy veros layouts but more aiming at doing my own layouts.
