Introducing the "Cream Pie" !

[JHS]

Has anyone a good idea how to add a hissfilter at the end? Due to the current FB it hisses a lot even with a 549/559 trannie, a simple LPB-1 circuit is way quiter (with a Ge- trannie the it hisses way more). The only way to get rid of the noise is fooling with the emitter R, but this affects the sound to much, same when reducing the current flow through the trannie to drop the noise level.

hi guys...

thought i'd ask a "favor" of you....

i'm really considering making some of these to sell...and since i've had people inquiring whether it "ok to pay a tech to build one for them", i'd rather pull all the layouts if possible...i still fully encourage DIY, and will happily email schemo's or layouts to those who email me and ask for it. its just my feeling that if "somebody" is going to make money on it, it should be "me"...i'm sure you can understand.

thanks,
  AC

Sounds great Andy.  Thanks again for sharing this cool circuit.

Andy, You deserve it, go for it !   

I made version 1 and until today, I only tested the circuit with strats and teles.  When I got home from work I decided to hit the pie with an SG equiped with a Kent Armstrong retrofit P-90 in the neck position into  my 72 Traynor Bass Master.  The tone almost brought a tear to my eye, the cream pie nails the early Santana tone with the sustain and the on the edge of feedback.  I LOVE the Cream Pie, just an amazing little booster.  All four of the stray cats I adopted didn't think much of it though, they all went to hide in the basement ;-)   

Best of luck making a couple o' bucks with the Cream Pie.

Yes,
The very best of luck Andy!
All my layouts for the creampie are down.
Thank you for sharing my friend! 

[mydementia]

No problem Andrew - you definitely deserve to profit from this one if there's profit to be made.
My layouts are down...
Good luck.

I'm going to build my dual layout this weekend...just printed the PNP today at work.  If it's as impressive as I think it's going to be, I'll post a build report with some sound clips.

Thanks again for your work on this circuit.

Hey,

Just wanted to let you know that a lot of the stuff on this thread is down (schematics).  I deleted my history and cache and all, and realised all of the stuff is down.  Also, your layouts arent in your folder anymore.  Can you please repost the version schematics and stuff.  I hope to breadboard this in a few days.

Thanks

Guys, this is completely off topic, but I would suggest that you do NOT post your email in a thread due to bots scouring the board for that stuff.

Use the PM function.

Just a suggestion.
