hi cool and awesome pedal building enthusiasts, i'm new to pedal building and i have an idea for at pedal but i need some help with it (not to build it, but with which controls i should put in it and how i get i to work) what i want to build is a fuzz pedal in a wah case and have an "intensity" control to be controlled by the wah pedal it self (the other controls would be on the side of the pedal)  :) i would be pleased to hear your meanings and ideas :)

welcome...I would definitely start with something simpler in a standard enclosure first, then work your way up.

It can easily be done, but it's just a bit harder. You can find similar pedals here and on Youtube.


always think outside the box

hi i know it's a tough start but i know something about electronics, i have been building hi-fi amps with my dad previously and i want to build an guitar effect, but if you could help me with ideas for which controls i could put in the pedal it would be great :)

maybe a straight forward fuzz face with pre-gain control for the wah pot..

with volume control  on the side.....just thinking aloud. :)
