armstrom and focalized - nice pedals!!! Great work, hope they sound as good as they look!!!  :icon_wink:

Dimebugg, tell me something more about that Tobias thing...Layout-components-sound...

They all sound different! There is no perfect Fuzz.

Yeah...I had this box offered in the "for sale" forum, but I decided to build in it !  :)

Basically it's a modded version of Hemmo's Buzz Box ...texture knob to control the splatty octave...and volume...BC108's....blah, blah, blah....

It sounds like THIS !
so how well do you know the band Dixie Witch? rylan

I've seen them play, but I don't know them. Great live band. I should probably get a CD or two of theirs, but I never got around to it.
Why ?

wow, never thought a buzz box could sound like that

and dixie witch are great to, cant remember what album ive got, but damn good shit

If you put a black border around where you would cut the decals, it would hide the decal edge. Fill out the design some. Something to try. If you do a full face, make sure you test it to line everything up.
Thanks for the tip. With regard to having everything line up I would probably include a little hole-center circle on the decal. Then I can just apply the decal to the undrilled enclosure, clear coat it and then drill the holes using the spots on the decal as a guide. I would probably put matching dots on the enclosure to help align the decal. Drilling through the decal once it's fully sealed in clear coat shouldn't pose a problem.

I found a schematic on the net ago(I forgot the site). Since I 'm curios of active basses, I made a layout on that schematic immediately.

I'm no electronic-wiz but this schem has a Baxandall type EQ on it and is using NJM062D(i'm using TL062CN on my prototype).

I like the sound of this circuit equally or more than the tillman jfet preamp IMO..

I would just like to add that the GGG EQ works great...I built two last year (the 5band + Gain stage version)  to run as the preamp sections of a stereo TD20x0 amp (also from the GGG site).  Put the whole thing in a rackmount enclosure...worked out beautifully...at least I'm quite pleased.

All right, Dime...Mind to share your layout?! post it here or in the gallery?  :icon_wink:

I'll find time posting it since it is a PCB Artist file.. :icon_biggrin:

You could always just take a "screen shot", open up Paint (on a PC) and press "paste", and edit from there...just save it as a JPEG or GIF. Should only take a minute or two.

already tried it..tracks happened to be always at the top of the pads...i'm not using a multi-layered or multi-colored one..sorry...i'm a newbie in this software..:D :D

Second build, MXR Micro Amp, on smallest smallbear perfboard...



that is one HUGE resistor you got there  :icon_eek:

lol, yeah, and I fit it in three spaces to try and make everything neater to solder on the underside. its 22m and i made a mistake when i ordered it from mouser/maybe it was the only wattage they had of it and i didnt realize how big it'd be.

Just so you know for the future:

That resistor doesn't "have" to be a 22M. It can be anything above a 1M, though the higher the value, the better. Whatever is available in the highest value will work fine. In fact, using a lower value can bleed off a bit of the "brightness" that is inherent to the Micro Amp that some people don't like.

1B,2B,3B is the treble pot(CCW,W,CW). The 330pF cap between lugs 3B & 1B is offboard as well as the 0.022uF at the bass CW &CCW lugs. I think there should be a 12K resistor between pin 1 of the opamp to the CW lug of VR4, not sure though... :D

i wanted to do a run of these, but lfo ticking changed my mind.  i have since added a toggleable buffer, which takes care of most of the lfo ticking, enough that it will happily be staying on my pedal board.

im going to make a post and share how I built it.

Great sounds here! I'm totally looking forward for the details of how you built it!

Wow - the MEEP is tops!

Can't wait to get more info...
