Tools, Tones and Toys for Guitarists
A great modern take on the classic fuzz pedals by Skreddy: Edgy, Aggressive Silicon Fuzz The Skreddy Pedals™ Lunar Module was designed for “that” certain silicon fuzz tone guitar solo I fell in love with on a best-selling 1973 album. I intentionally voiced this thing aggressively so it will cut through any mix. Very satisfying … Read more
The other classic. This again is as per the original. Note, the layout has been done with 2N5088 or 2N3904 transistors in mind and that matches the orientation shown. If you use anything else, check the required orientation for the transistors you use to make sure the pins are C B E from top to … Read more
The classic. This is the original unmodded version with input and output buffers intact :o) Note, the layout has been done with 2N5088 or 2N3904 transistors in mind and that matches the orientation shown. If you use anything else, check the required orientation for the transistors you use to make sure the pins are C … Read more
(originally posted on freestompboxes.org) I thought I’d share this little project with everyone as I’m sure a few other people would be interested in it. Just to paint the picture I really hate two things about building effects, firstly the clunky and sometimes unreliable 3PDT switches, and secondly (and most annoyingly) the offboard wiring. I … Read more
This one is verified. Level and Sustain are both 10K And with external Sustain control:
With switch to change between symmetrical and asymmetrical clipping.
This is an awkward one to do a layout for because there seems to be so many schematics out there that the best one is always going to be a matter of personal preference. The original used one half of the opamp for the effect, and the other half for the bypass buffer, with a … Read more
You don’t come across this very often, but this is a fairly original compressor! At 22 columns wide it will fit in a 1590B, but file the sides down as much as possible for extra space, and maybe use some electricians tape on either side of the box for insulation as a precaution. I tried … Read more
