If this keeps up there will be pedal burning gatherings down in the Bible Belt

as per my last "boob" post - i WAS joking, but halfway... i think it's something that people should consider when posting here, just like we always try to be civil toward eachother. not that i do, but many people could easily be offended by senseless nudity in a community that has nothing to do with it. i didn't mean to start any arguments, but i suppose it's valid.

links work just as well and don't cause anyone any problems. that's cool with everyone, right?

So it's not longer branch of Sex, Drugs and Rock 'n' Roll comunity here?

Well, when you go thru new pages of this thread for overview, do you check all non-pics posts? - Now you will have to, if you will want to be sure that you are not missing some interesting picture..

No problem to respect it (especially with "graphics" I use on my pedals

), but I find it strongly ridiculous, sorry..

Back on topic...

I just finished another build, which was a series of firsts for me. First Fuzz. First Raco box. First Perf-Board.

I'm really happy with the sound of this beast! Goes from heavy-distortion to Nintendo, and if I unplug my guitar I get radio! Can't beat that.

I'm having the most fun rocking this after my Whammy, working the harmonies to get some 8-bit sounds. For some reason, if if the fuzz is before the Whammy in the chain, the Whammy tames it considerably (maybe - voltage?). This should be a lot of fun to work with in my band as I'm doing some DJ-Whammy-HipHop stuff, and brings out some heavily gated synth-sounding parts.

The FUZZ

My First Gut-Shot

My friend commented that my wiring job looks like those toys you see in waiting rooms at the dentists office. The ones with the wooden beads on the multi-colored wires...

Maybe you should consider fulfiling the whole visual by putting random ferrite beads on your wires

Going back off topic for a moment; if I was at work doing anything else but working, I would be constantly watching out to ensure my boss didn`t catch me actually, not working. Just a tip

Very nice gut-work!
How did you attach the PCB? With velcro to the pots?

Nah, was listening to Smashing Pumpkins - Bodies.

"The tired bodies stand at rest.... casualties of their own flesh .. afflicted by their dispossession"
Something like that, right?

Brings back nice memories of when I was 16 and melancholic ... awesome band!

I've had a week off work and finally got some builds finished off:

Liquid Sunshine

Guts:

Stay tuned, more coming soon...

Part 2

Barber Silver LTD.

I decided to mount the trimmers as externally. I don't think I'll be tweaking it too much, but it's better than having to open it up to make changes.

I'm sure every build I do is messier than the previous (on the inside at least) ...

Something not right about this.
