Tools, Tones and Toys for Guitarists
Got a little booster circuit that should go together pretty easily. It’s pretty much an Electra without clipping diodes and a large value resistor between base and collector (similar to the EQD Arrows). Easy fit in a 1590B or even a 1590G (probably). Schematic on FSB.
The Pete Cornish NG-2 fuzz is quite the fuzz pedal. It’s probably one of my favourite modern fuzzes. It’s a real beast when you dial everything up. PETE CORNISH NG-2 – BIG MUFF STAGE The first two stages of the Pete Cornish NG-2 are pretty much a Big Muff. Boost, then clip. The Big Muff … Read more
A slightly smaller point to point layout for the Sola Sound Tone Bender MKIV than the other in my post (for bigger mojo parts). Of course you can build any Tone Bender MKIII or MKIV from this layout. SOLA SOUND TONE BENDER MKIV – COMPACT POINT TO POINT LAYOUT NOTE: voltages shown are … Read more
Schematic and info HERE I added the” Low Mode” as well hence the additional Mode switch. And by request, a layout with a Klon buffer before the main circuit.
I guess the first question might be, why bother? That’s big for a buffer and there are other smaller layouts – true. It’s only five columns longer than the one on Guitar FX layouts, so it’s not huge by comparison. It happened to suit something I was making, so why not? The classic Pete Cornish buffer – … Read more
It’s a Rat… and of course you can build any version of the Proco Rat using this point to point layout. Pop the Earthquaker Devices Tentacle in front of it and a boost after it, and now you have a Sunn Life pedal. PROCO RAT – POINT TO POINT LAYOUT PLEASE NOTE: … Read more
The classic Dan Armstrong octave effect – The Green Ringer. Great to put in front of a fuzz or distortion pedal. The Earthquaker Devices Sunn Life pedal is basically a Green Ringer in front of a Proco Rat, with a booster.
