I just finished wiring up a Little Gem on perf.  I've put about 1.5 hours into building the actual circuit. I think I've got 2 hours into the enclosure for it, and it's not done yet.

The plan is to send it off to a local amp manufacturer along with my resume and hopefully get a job with them.

***EDIT*** note that I'm not going to take credit for the design.  Just to be clear.  ***end edit****

Anyway, it's been a fun project because it's quick, easy, and it works.

What was your favorite QUICK build?

The 'other' Fuzz Face...cheap, 'quick*, small, pd easy.
 Any 1 Q booster, Sparkleboost if you don't have one.
 Stratoblaster boards come in handy, I like having one 'out' [of the box] for testing or use to pre-gain up a Fuzz  or for more output of something...after a SS phazer for instance. That way when I like or need one, there it is, in the mean time it's a 'basement' effect, used in a testjig.

Hey Marty, have you built the Marsha Valve?  What'd you think of it?

My fav quick builds are the Fetzer Valve, the 2 circuits I contributed (Marsha Valve and Sixteen Overdrive), Ruby, Easy Drive, LPB-1. Basically anything with a low parts count that I can whip up on the breadboard in minutes.

Yes I did, thanks for that one :D
I was going to post a "review" and I like to live with most things for at least a few days ....
I liked it a lot !
The "sixteen" is on the list .... which is getting smaller these days, man
i have built at least one of almost EVERYTHING  !!!!   :shock:
..... or should I add another stage to the sixteen for a "24"    !!
Then when its boxed I can print out a "Kiefer sutherland" for the front !!

Cheers,
Marty.

Cool.  Play away with it.  I'd love to see a review from someone else, others would too I'm sure.

A TV themed stompbox, that would be different.  :D
