Tools, Tones and Toys for Guitarists
Not an auto wah in a normal sense, more like an inductorless wah circuit driven by an LFO. This must be one of the earliest modulation pedals and IMO it is a hidden gem. Lots of murky psychedelic madness can be found in this circuit, especially with a dirt box upfront. Rate and Depth controls … Read more
This was a request.Based on Fuzzrucious Ram the Manparts but with a bit less gain on tap, no starve control but with tone and clipping controls. Schematic and info HERE.
Schematic is avaiable HERE. Through hole MC33178 op amps seem to have gone obsolete so you may want to try other low noise dual op op amps with BJT iputs such as 4580, NE5532, L833 etc. Or simply TL072s…
A 3DPT or a 2DPT switch can be used for this. Pete Cornish uses a 3DPT, perhaps because he solders the LED circuit to the switch pins – who knows… I added secondary power filtering on the buffer, which of course, can be easily removed if you already have it on the effect circuit. Stating … Read more
Another ENGL 530 amp emulator based on a russian schematic but with quite a few extra knobs and switches added by JOK3RX at FSB.
Modified for 3PDT bypass switching. Correct schematic avaiable at Deadend Fx

If you are new to pedal building, you need to make an effort to understand switching, as it’s one of the fundamentals. 3PDT TRUE BYPASS SWITCHING Make sure you have latching 3PDT switches, or prepare for disappointment. The alternative to latching … Read more
