Just bought a load of stuff to get started from www.bitsbox.co.uk

Very excited. I have quite a few EEs at work who can point me in the right direction when the UNFATHOMABLE MAGIC OF ELECTRICITY becomes too much.

Going to start with a fuzz, and hopefully work up to a verb. Plan to transfer thigs that sound good to an enclosure.

Very excited :D

Gonna be watching this so any tips would be great.

I've built a few kits and veroboarded bits n bats. Thought I was just getting my head round it do I bought a breadboard to try and tweak some stuff and come up with my own ideas and it became apparent immediately I knew nothing!

Gave it up as a bad job in temper and haven't touched it since!

Well, I have no illusions of becoming the next big electronics developer, but I thought I could work of exixting schematics, and tweak them.

Most importantly, I'm hoping it will allow me to build a "few" difernt pedals with my exixting components, and decide what I like before commiting them to something more permanent.

I'm worried because I have ZERO patientce, and a TERRIBLE temper, so we'll see. Maybe I can use it to try and learn some composure and grace :lol:

Nice! I just started building fuzzes a couple months ago and I am having a lot of fun with it.
