Hey guys,
What Temolo do you guys like better and what have you built, the BYOC or General Guitar gadgets?
Anyone ever compare them?

Tremelus Lune absolutely. But if you want a kit...Both GGG and BYOC are EA(Electronics Austrailia) Tremolo i think...Nice tremolo BTW but the lune give you more option...

Edit: The GGG kit is cheaper by almost 20$...
I know, but the pedal i built does not boost...it just increases volume!

I´ve built the EA trem from ggg´s layout, and it sounds great. I don´t need any more options. On the other hand I´ve heard good things about the tremelus lune - just wanted to ad that the EA trem is a great sounding build

what sound better is always a subjective matter...
but here's some sample...and again, it depend on you rig...so you have plenty of choices finally

  I've built the BYOC one. It was simple and sounds nice, could probably use a little more slow-fast range. Looking at the two schems I'm pretty sure the GGG has some improvements courtesy of Jack Orman, Robert Strand, and Runoffgroove...

I've got a PCB for the lune and parts inbound, but does any know if there's a bias vary trem in pedal form?
Anyone who's played a vibrochamp or any of the old amps with bias vary trem can tell you that the "WHUUUUUMMP" of a bias vary trem is much nicer than a volume modulation...
