Klon Buffer
And after a few requests here’s a version using the TL072 opamp (or any other dual opamp you fancy trying):
Vero
Skreddy Mayo
I’ve done a few Skreddy layouts, but to be fair to the man here’s one of his discontinued effects to start off with. If you want to build an authentic one using the original transistors you’ll need to find some high gain 2N5133s to use. You do find them on eBay but the last seller … Read more
HAO Rust Driver
Update 27-02-2012 – I’m keeping these online so that all previous versions remain accessible, but I suggest anyone wanting to build this does so using the new updated layout which can be found here. and the later version with a 3 position tone switch
Lovepedal Amp Eleven
Hmmm this looks similar to something else too …. Sean told everyone that this wasn’t a clone of his “good friends” best selling pedal and was in fact a Kalamazoo. I’ll leave you to look at the following comparison and make up your own minds. Amp 11 / Timmy comparison: Amp 11 / Kalamazoo … Read more
Lovepedal Purple Plexi 800
A lot of people have said this is a great “Marshall in a box” and it’s a pretty simple circuit so worth a try. I did a big axial mojo layout for this a while ago, but have re-done it here using more commonly used (and space friendly) components. It’s funny but it occurred to … Read more
ZVex Woolly Mammoth – vero
I had a request for a vero of the Mastotron, so here’s the Woolly Mammoth which is virtually the same, with the Mastotron just having an additional 100K linear pot which the input is taken to before the first capacitor. The new input wiring with the Relax/Pull pot can be seen on my tagboard layout … Read more
Gary Hurst Tonebender MKI
Like the last one, a bit of a pain but the Gary Hurst version is slightly more forgiving I believe. Again don’t forget to cut the trimmer legs that are shown over the -9V rail, there should be no connection there. This is based on the original Gary Hurst MkI because the reissue was … Read more
Tonebender MKI
Updated 31st January 2014: A lot of people have mentioned that the trimmers in this aren’t as important as finding the correct transistors, so I’d recommend building this version which omits the trimmers entirely and puts the fixed resistors back. Make sure you use sockets for the transistors and prepare yourself to audition plenty! :o) … Read more
