Tools, Tones and Toys for Guitarists
A new release by Fredrik (Freppo) from Parasit Studio. You can find all infos and pcb on his website. There is also a layout for his new Sentient Machine on our Forum/Contributions section. Here are two videos for v. 2.0 and v.1 to give you an idea until a new video will be recorded: You … Read more
Here’s JHS’ Honeycomb Deluxe tremolo. Or something close to it anyway. It’s a modified EA Tremolo with an extra switch to control speed and a extra footswitch to switch between speed controls. Ian McDermott came up with a work-a-like for it, so this layout follows his schematic. This layout features board mounted pots and because … Read more
Got a request for the Pete Cornish Buffer in dual form like the one I did with the Klon Buffer. So here’s both a single and a dual Cornish Buffer. The original uses a 1N5401 for polarity protection, but a 4001 or similar will work too. And you can probably get away with a small … Read more
Here’s the Klon again. I wanted one with board mounted pots and for a smaller enclosure. You might be able to fit this in a 1590B with low profile jacks, but it will easily fit in a 125B. It’s designed for 9mm PCB mount pots, though it might be difficult to find the dual-gang Gain … Read more

Made popular by SRV and countless others, the TS-808 (and its derivatives) have become legendary. When we designed the Plush® Cream™, we sought to produce a pedal with the 3-knob simplicity of this classic pedal, while … Read more
Happy Pi day! The day calls for at least some version of the Big Muff Pi, so here’s the Supercollider. I think Cody’s asked me to lay this one out like 3 times and I finally remembered to do it. haha This one follows the basic Green Russian Muff with a few component value changes. … Read more
It’s Fuzz Friday! Here’s a cool doom-style fuzz from DeadAstronaut over on the DIYSB forum. Pretty simple and should fit in a 1590a. Schematic and a ton of discussion can be found here.
Got a request for this one. The schematics that come up with a Google search are all wrong apparently, but it looks like the good people on FSB have figured things out. Here’s a link the the discussion and the latest schematic (which this layout is based on) is on page 5. I based this … Read more
Got a request for a flanger effect, and hadn’t seen many layouts for the John Hollis Ultra Flanger (that didn’t have tiny thin traces anyway), so I thought I’d give it a go. For the record: flangers are hard. I knew from the get go this one wouldn’t fit in a 1590B, but it will … Read more
