Hi,
I couldn't find a build report of this pedal yet, so here are some pictures I made.

It's an easy build, so I wanted to make it small...ish!

Let's begin with the schematic:


and the build:




I used some wood pieces to maintain the board on place.

The shutter is a plastic piece from a shampoo (Yes I know)

I replaced the pot by a led/ldr and a parallel 100k resistor.

Volume is maxed.



Cheers!
Thomas

This makes me quite unreasonably happy.

And a little jealous.

But mostly happy.

Wow I love it. Thanks for all the detailed pics! It is a simple yet elegant solution for a diy wah pedal! It inspires me to want to try to build one although probably at least in a 1590B :-[ It sounds great too!
Also, it looks to be really solid and reliable too.

I'm calling it now: Build of the Year!!!  :) :) :)
