ZVex Fuzz Factory vero
Another that I thought I’d already posted. I’ll add a more compact layout in the next day or so Geiri’s demo video of his build:
Month: January 2012
Univox Super Fuzz
Note the pin layout required for the transistors. This will accommodate many modern NPN silicon transistors, but you will need to either alter the layout or twist over pins if using transistors with a different pin layout like the 2SC828s used in the original. One for a 1590BB, but I’ll do a 1590B friendly version … Read more
BJFE Sea Blue EQ
I did this one a while ago and it has been posted on a number of forums but just realised I haven’t shared it here yet. Update 22nd June 2017: Some information that was very generously shared by Bjorn about this circuit Hi Mark, For your blog: The original BJF SBEQ used 2N3819 transistors selected … Read more
ZVex Box of Metal
Another one to keep you busy for a while. This version is the effect only and no gate so you’ll have to use an ISP Decimator or something with it if it’s noisy :o)
Hermida Zendrive
Another popular pedal and rightly so, this is a great sounding overdrive. Geiri’s video of his Zendrive build with AMZ MiniBooster in the same box. Thanks for the vid mate:
EHX IC Big Muff
I wanted to try this one out with a quad opamp and so thought I’d put together a couple of layouts, one for the 1977 version and one for the 1978 version with a tone bypass switch. I have done a version of the 77 with all the diodes laid out on the board, but … Read more
Mini JFET Blend
A simple mini blend layout based on Sean’s JFET schematic here: http://seanm.ca/stomp/minblend.html Will easily fit in a 1590A box and I probably wouldn’t even use a stomp switch with this because in the unblended position of the pot, this will essentially be just a JFET buffer. You could always add a mini toggle to bypass … Read more
Keeler Pull
I posted this a while ago but someone said they had a problem with the build and so I pulled it and then promptly forgot! I’ve just noticed that since then the same guy confirmed the layout is good so I may as well post it up again.
ROG Whisker Biscuit
I thought a few Big Muff fans who were looking for something a little different may be interested in this. From the runoffgroove website: “The Whisker Biscuit is a hybrid of the Bazz Fuss and the Big Muff Pi. A single Bazz Fuss stage replaces the two clipping stages of the BMP. Smooth, super-long sustain, … Read more
