Dragonbeard - a super tricked out Expandora

Interested in what you've done with this. Having done a little messing around with that circuit in the past, I'm happy to contribute, if that's of any use.

The pdf is here: http://eskinasi.home.xs4all.nl/DIY/DeviEverDIYinfo.pdf

Necro bump!
anyone able to message me this Pdf...please?
Don't know if it's on there, but I'm specifically looking for the GZ circuit. cheers.

I've always loved you art choices.
Why do the vintage Muffs only have a single pair of clipping diodes?- what am I missing?

These have a great look. 

A few things off the bench...

5E1

No cab yet, might put it in a head shell. For fun, I've been running it through a Slant Marshall 2x12.
Man, only 5 watts, but it sure can push some air!





Optical Trem
I've built heaps of these, love 'em.





TS808 with mids and clipping options on toggles.



This is a BYOC board filed down to fit a 1590B. You have to sacrifice the outside pairs of traces, but other than that it works fine. I had to put the board face down to get clearance on the toggle switches, so it's not very pretty. I just cover the whole lot with a business card.   

Thanks guys...I wish we could vote for him! 

Slick!

Cheers Gents!

... Where did you get those small knobs??

I found them scrounging on Hong Kong ebay. I never seem to be able to get them again from the same place though. If you find any, be aware, most of the time they're for D shafts.

Karate Chop/ Harmonic Energizer.



If you're not familiar with this circuit, it's the rare, powerful and gritty notch filter used a lot by Frank.

Really nice build of a really great circuit!

I love the different things I get asked to do, especially when it is finished with; "Oh, and can you etch a barn owl on it?"

Codtone "Bunyip" Overdrive paired with a TH Parametric EQ.



Yes...I did put the ICs into the Od...eventually.   

Cheers. The clean blend is a little opamp vero I cooked up. I'll share it if anyone is interested.
Yes, it's good for bass. I like it for guitar too. It preserves the dynamics and front of the note, but you still have the sustain.

Thanks Gents.

The more I see these nice etches around here, the more I want to try it.

Do it! The more times you do, the easier it gets!                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           

Forgot to add this one to my last post...
I've observed a long lineage of Star Wars themed pedals over the years I've been on these forums, but somehow never wound up joining that club...until now!
The Darkside, a SHO  into a Muff...they really just go together so well! (it's something that seems to work an anatomical level too... :wink: )



Snagged that image a while ago and had been waiting for the right moment. Reverse etched well.
Muff is a hybrid Triangle with Civil War tone caps and a scoop/flat/hump toggle.

How can I resist someone who is 'ingested'...

Here's a demo I did (quickly) of the first one I built...
