Jack Orman's Muffmaster is great!

This was a fun friday night build... didn't get a chance to really try it out until this morning since i didn't want to crank my hellhound at 2 AM

Here are some pics.

Great sound, the only other boost i have been real familiar with is the Keeley Java Boost, which i love. I also really like this muffmaster, and it really does great things with my Strat and Hellhound when the amp is cranked.

I'm sure many of you have already built this one, but for those that haven't, it's a great easy build

Yes, especially when using transparent goo instead of solder.

Lookin' great and simple. It's crying for a smashing finish.

haha, i went overboard on the goo... i figure if this thing ever needs servicing, it'd be easier to just put together a new board rather than troubleshoot, hehe.

edit: heh, internal layout is not my forte, that's for sure... you should see my 4ms Atoner

Well I guess transparent goo is better than duct tape (in this application).

Looks great... goo and all. I'm glad you are enjoying the project.

regards, Jack

Nice pictures.... Looks good. The muffmaster is next on my project list.
Is that a Hammond aluminum box, if so what model number? Looks perfect.

That is the Hammond 1590B. If you get a different battery clip (the kind where the wire come out the center instead of the side), you can more easily fit the battery on its side and save some room. As you can see, i had to lie it flat, with a piece of foam underneath it, since i didn't have any other battery clips on hand.
