And it rocks!!! I finished mine today, and played a little with it. I got a cool sound with single notes and chords, cool to play AC/DC songs with that lots of chords and Satriani. The sound is really better than any other overdrive that I saw. The gain pot was useless for me, because I want high gain and there's no problem to play chords in higher gain settings. I just want to do a suggestion: this needs a tone control. The standard tone is cool, but it will be a lot better with a Marshall style tone stack. And it is cool to play blues too .

you could try out the Way Huge Tone Controll  

Havn't tried it myself yet.

I think Joe's site has a tone control on it.

[Marcos - Munky]

Yeah, in Joe's site there is a 3 band tone control. I was thinking about the Way Huge tone control. If I try something I post her.

:?  Does anyone found the way huge parts values for that BMP tone control???

I'd really apreciate if I could try that, as I had never been satisfied with the original BMP tone stack values nor with the mods I tried...

How is the noise level? Any radio pickup? Thanks for providing some quick feedback and constructive advice... I almost added a tone control, but I'm not very good with those.. I have an idea for one though.

The noise level is very little, almost zero. The only noise that I heard is a common noise that all amps have in Brazil, because we don't use that ground pin in the middle of the power plug. I didn't got any radio pickups too. I didn't put it in a box yet, but I think I will do this in the weekend. I have a suggestion for you, Joe. What about to make non-overdrive effects, like phasers, wahs and others? Then we can have a "Joe Davisson" pedalboard. I saw that you made a tremolo, and it's in my list of things to do. I have a almost finished P.E.T. too, that needs only the transistor and pots, and a booster to get a loud volume (I built it once, and the volume is lower than the guitar signal).

Here's a geek litmus test: how many saw the title of the thread and thought "must have used stone knives and bearskins?"

[Ge_Whiz]

Probably only you, Erik. Probably only you.  :lol:

Wierd what do you hear? All the plugs in my room aren't grounded either... Are you gonna record any soundclips?

That would be great!! A JD pedalboard!!

I can try to record a soundclip, but my pc still have that volume problem, but I will try.

[smoguzbenjamin]

Otherwise I'll just crank my PC audio thing here
