Tools, Tones and Toys for Guitarists
This one didn’t quite turn out as intended but I thought I’d post it anyway as it may make a good experiment. Whether you like the idea of removing buffers or not, I think most people would agree that the Lovepedal Eternity is still a great sounding pedal in its own right, and a much … Read more
The 159th Lovepedal Electra. Info about the original: The Lovepedal Les Lius features a three way toggle switch that allows you to change tones from 5E3 Woody (Tweed Fender Deluxe), High Power Twin (50′s Fender Twin) and Master Volume Tchula (combination of both the 5E3 Woody and the High Power Twin). The amount of VOLUME … Read more
Original unit has relay based switching and 1000µ filter cap. This layout is done with the circuit in tact, but omitting the original switching, LED and filtering is replaced by 470µ cap. Our “standard” polarity protection is in place and i’ve also added 1M resistor to prevent popping from the standard true bypass switching.. Tone … Read more
This is a request for my slight mods on Rick Holt’s Assassin of Silence Cascaded LPB Fuzz. It doesn’t really do much to to the original. Just omits the “fuzz” control and adds pair of schottky diodes for clipping. If you’re building this, you could easily make it even simpler by just omitting the Sludge … Read more
This was my take on the DBA Robot but with individual switching for the IC internal functions (Vibrato, Robot and any of the octave options on the fly) rather than the rotary switch used in the original. I thought it would be more versatile to be able to control them all individually rather than be … Read more
Request, and unusually for the site, this layout has been done by our very own Geiri who asked to post it here so everyone can share it, so thanks Geiri! :o) Info about the original: The Sadowsky Outboard Bass Preamp/DI Pedal contains the same famous circuitry built into every Sadowsky bass. Housed in a small … Read more
Info about the original: David Gilmour’s lead guitar tone throughout the years has consistently been as varied as it is sought after. Numerous different fuzzes, overdrives, and boosters coupled with various amps and guitars have created some of the most gloriously rich and vibrant tones in the history of rock. While it’s clear that no sole effect can alone … Read more
Nothing too special, but just a cool, high gain, straight forward modern Fuzz Face adaptation. Demo vid in spanish. Now verified. If you are experiencing oscillation with your build, try 100R resistor in place of 5.6 Ohm…
With 8 knobs and 3 switches I really didn’t need to keep the size of this one down, but it will fit in a 1590B if anyone is utterly insane :o) You can shave off another column if you solder D1 and D2 in the same hole and move the 1u cap over to the … Read more
Request and it’s a quicky so I thought I’d do it while I had 5 minutes spare. This is Creepy Fingers Effects take on the silicon Fuzz Face, and is pretty much stock with a few changes and additions such as the 10 ohm resistor in series with Fuzz 3 to try to tame the … Read more
