Wow man... that really sounds good, might have to build yet another overdrive! :o
Thanks for the demo :)

man, that thing sounds as pretty as it looks. You've got me GAS'ing to make one... an OCD/Egodriver is the closest thing I've got to doing this. Seems like this would also beat a BSIAB2 in versatility

Great demo!

Did you do the R5 mod?  And if so, did you change C5 as suggested in the Boneyard mods thread?

I have no business building this, but now I have GAS.  I think I'll go plug into my crunchbox to curtail this GASsy discomfort.

Wow.  I thought the demo was great.  It's a lot better than what you normally see on the tube.  Even with the iphone I think it's a more than acceptable demo!  I like the mix between chords and lead, it gives us a really good idea on how this thing sounds.  I had no, I mean NO, interest in building this before.  Now my tune has changed...  ;D

Maybe you can build another and we'll work a trade. haha

Sounds great! I think your demo is very representative of what this pedal can do. It sounds very similar to the one I built. Cool pedal.

Thanks dude! the size of the enclosure is a 1790B. I posted the documents I used for my layout on my build report. You can check'em out ;)

lol thanks dude...I know, those LEDs were killing the video. I had originally set the pedal in another angle so the LEDs wouldn't do that, but I moved it at some point and realized it halfway through the video...haha oh well!

thanks man! I love my classic 30....although I've been recently thinking of either buying a Weber Blue Dog speaker for it, or a Celestion Green 25...still not decided yet...

Yes! I used the 47ohm on R5, no cap change though. I thought it sounded great with that value in. I did add a 150pf ceramic cap across pins 1 and 8 to filter out some high frequency over the sound (it's kinda hard to explain) but that did the trick...

haha thanks Josh! I might just take you up on that trade! You seem to be a delay guru around here so maybe we can figure something out ;):D


Thanks all for your great comments! I really wasn't expecting such a great feedback...iMovie does a great job at taking a crappy video and turn it into something pretty :) haha

Oh, and sorry for causing so much GAS around here...hahaha

Yeah, I've actually got a Warehouse Guitar Speakers Veteran 30 coming on Monday that I got used from a buddy. Should sound pretty awesome, but I think any speaker upgrade will make the amp sound better.

Veteran 30 is what I use in my American amp.  Nice sounding speaker, very versatile.

Glad to hear that, I can't wait to put it in tomorrow. I'll get to run it through its paces at a gig next Saturday too.  ;D
