Agreed!

They sound alright too!

Goes without saying, obviously.

Some recent work:

Fuzzface large and small

Honey Bee with Saltboost Gain Boost stage - sounds fucking amazing

that swarm looks absoulutly mint. what's it based around? isn't it a JFPE pedal or something like that?

make an uni vibe next mike!

BJFE Honey Bee.

It's a sort of weirdly modified RAT at heart, sounds way different though. I won't ever build an exact Uni vibe, they're a pain in the arse with the lamp and reflectors etc. I'm going to build an Easy Vibe which is a workalike with 4 LEDs and LDR optocouplers when things calm down, currently I have a steady 4-6 week wait on my pedals.

sounds pretty cool, burgs has set up shop with someone and they've been making combo pedals with a fuzz and a vibe or od and a vibe. the sound got to me again, he seems to get that proper thick swirl going on. both the vibes i had didn't sound as thick.

Last ones out before Xmas Break.

I've managed to build boards for 3 more pedals including WRSS's Machine but I can't get out to my folks (snow) to drill the cases tonight so I'll have to drill them when I'm back from Edinburgh on Jan 3rd.

Do you want your jacks on top or on the sides, btw

If they'll fit on top with the layout as is then that'd be awesome la, cheers!

Everyone loves a Meathead.

My MBM is still going strong. Stacks really well.

Mike, what is this one?

Haze · Post by **Haze** » Sun Jan 09, 2011 9:11 am

I was wondering that myself. Plenty of diodes and fets, only one cap and 5 electros. Very interested!

It's my 4 knobbed Machine clone! God I can't wait to get my hands on it!

That's amazingly cool looking. I love it.

Found the layout for the 4-knob machine, looks very cool and a fun project. Might build one of these to smash fuzz with

for anyone interested
