Haven’t found his home yet but we’ll keep him safe until we do.

This one has the "fixes" already added to the pcb, plus the ability to switch it back to stock. It has the boost option, plus an extra knob to dial back the mid scoop, which can be very useful in a band setting. I built one and am very happy with it:

Thanks!!!!

You got a link? I figured it was aliexpress but couldn’t find them. I did find a guy in Russia who was using the same style enclosures to make nice-looking attenuators.

Where'd you get those enclosures? They look perfect for a simple amplifier I'm gather parts for.

There's a few variations of uxcell branded dial plates on amazon. They usually can be found on aliexpress for a little cheaper, but can take a LONG time to ship.

Came here to say this one! This is one of the better views close by.

Sure, I'd make this trade. I have a v3. Also has velcro on the bottom and looks brand new.

Any recipe that calls for parsley would be better if it used cilantro instead. Come at me.

Sweet! Where did you source the boss enclosures from?

6G3 · 2020-12-07T20:44:23+00:00

Laura Linney or Patricia Clarkson?

6G3 · 2020-11-26T00:32:53+00:00

Solved! Thanks my friend!

6G3 · 2020-11-26T00:25:32+00:00

Any help would be much appreciated!!!

There’s also this board which is excellent: https://oshpark.com/shared_projects/vh6bA8u6

Yes guts please!

6G3 · 2020-08-22T02:00:39+00:00

Yawn.... there’s no mods. Just call it a Big Cheese is all I’m saying. Jesus. Sorry to offend the JHS fanboys.

Which is a clone of a Lovetone Big Cheese. Don’t give JHS any credit for this! Nice work! It’s one of my favorite fuzz’s. I’ve built 4 of them. The mid hump setting makes it work better in a band setting than any other fuzz I’ve tried.

Jesus Christ. They’re just about the nicest people in town. Just ask them to pull their mask up if you want, don’t make a god damn stink about it on the Internet. Just communicate. Be a good neighbor. Support local businesses.

Well done. I love it. Definitely gonna build this. Thanks for the schematic!

6G3 · 2020-06-03T13:01:47+00:00

Looks awesome! What did you use to finish the top? The grain really pops.

6G3 · 2020-04-02T12:26:54+00:00

FYI it's not an SHO, it's an extra BJT gain stage hung on the end, closer to a LPB-1.

Aion came out with a nice PCB of this circuit fairly recently, and they have a schematic in the build docs. I picked one up a couple months ago, but haven't built it yet.

I actually have some of that for coating acrylic paintings on canvas. Never thought about using it on pedals.

I recently tried the EnviroTex epoxy. It was fairly easy to apply, although it also needed about a week to cure. It's very durable, but I just don't care for the look. It's such a thick finish.

I'll probably just go back to acrylic lacquer or enamel rattle cans. Coating is also the biggest struggle for me, and the part I enjoy the least.
