Mike's Pedal Thread

Seems doable, it's a three op-amp fuzz with a bizarre relay based switching system. If I can slice the relay out of the circuit it will be doable.

Cheers man, that means alot. Dead chuffed you like it.

I'm flabergasted by the array of sounds this thing can produce, especially in conjunction with the swithching variations on the Jaguar. The strangle switch works really well with it too. I didn't think it worked well with anything!!

Fuzzfaces have a healthy bass response so I imagine the thin sounds really mesh well. I'd love to hear some samples if you have teh technology

Alas I don't, but I'll try to sort something out.

Dinosauria, you'll soon realize that once you have one mike pedal, you need to have more.

if your into your fuzzes, you should really try mike's superfuzz. it will rip at the choir boy out of you and give you man balls the size of bornemouth.

This one has certainly whetted my appetite! It's great to support peeps doing stuff like this, especially when the product is top notch.

Hmm I dunno if I want my balls shrunk.

look into a peach fuzz any?

possible price range of it?

Post by **Mike** » Wed Oct 22, 2008 7:25 am

Yeah like I said here I've had a look and it seems doable if you want one.

Pricewise it would be around Â£80/$160 I think because the circuit isn't simple and I'd need to do a layout. I doubt I could fit it into a small box aswell, so it would be like some of the bigger box stuff I've done (the boxes aren't huge, just about 1.5 times the size of th esmall box)

oops, missed that one, sorry

larger boxes are fine, just watching a ton of vids and shopping about a bit to see what i might purchase next

Post by **Mike** » Thu Oct 23, 2008 7:56 am

Fair enough, let me know if you're interested at any point and I'll order parts.

Mike: You are "GO" for operation Profani-Fuzz. You can of course name it whatever the fuck you want.

Post by **Mike** » Thu Oct 23, 2008 3:40 pm

OK, sounds good. I'll order some stuff. Do you need battery power or is DC only (boss style jack) ok with you?

What do you think of something like this:

Right so Projects in the works:

St. Jimmy - Coupletones Fuzz with aggressively offensive decal'd control names. Metallic Red paint, Blue LED. - $90 shipped (I believe I said $80-$100? correct me if I'm wrong)

Mike, how much would a Harmonic Percolator run me?

Ideally I'd like to have a tone knob, just something to roll off some highs if neccessary.
