Here's one I finished today. I started with a Rat and kept changing things until I had something I liked, was very versatile and well no longer sounded like a Rat. ;)

I'll try to get a demo up. This ones a keeper ;D

Thanks Rob!

Yup ;)

They are the first thing I put in the enclosure and I really wrench 'em tight. Plus I have a notching process that puts little teeth on the shoulder to bite like a spider washer. So far no issues. It would be nice to have a more compact option that was the quality of the Switchcraft jacks though. A size that would allow spider washers would be my preference, but I have yet to find this solution.

Law-- the pedal "names" are confusing me...

Are they Japanese, or pig Latin, or is the Acronym Dog in my head just howling!

??? :icon_eek: :-\ :icon_wink:

Stellar builds..

I used to really be with it!  That is, until they changed what "it" is.  Now, I can't find it.  And, I'm scared!  --  Homer Simpson's dad

They are Japanese. Though your Acronym Dog might be on to something ;D

I hope all is well!

I work for government.  Everything I see screams acronym first.

So, do you have a large secret Japanese market, Law?

All is well, other than my neck looks like somebody took a blow torch to it.. BLACK.

Healing now.

This one was a little easier to get in the box  ;) One chip fuzz. Unlike most of my other circuits, this is a one trick pony. Over the top fuzz and sustain. Great for lead lines :)



Ooh, nice. What is it? Some sort of "fuzz chip" tonebender or cascaded boosters stages?

Yes it is a "fuzz chip" tonebender, though not the proprietary chip kind ;)

Just a run of the mill NOS 3046  ;D

Very nice! What did you use to etch that?

lars-musik

I used old FeCl3 in 40g/l concentration and toner transfer as etching mask.

That's what I use for mine as well. I have a bottle of old Radio Shack pcb etchant that does a nice job on aluminum. The hardest part is getting the toner transfer to adhere fully so the lines are nice and sharp after etch.

Here's one I finished today. Drawing inspiration from the Maxon OD820 circuit and my Solaris builds. Really great sounding versatile overdrive with lots of boost level.

Groovenut- Your builds look incredible. Thanks for sharing.
