Would like to build first something that I will really use.
So, what sould I build next?
thanks in advance for the suggestions

ZeroPoint DD or SDLX (if you're feeling ambitious)
A Muff (everyone needs to build at least one)
There's a start.
Cosmopolitan is an amazing pedal. Very versatile.
I see you have no modulation there. How about something like a Porkbarrel?

I share same opinion, there are lot of MBP delay & modulation boards..
Mostly I etch mine own boards, but MBP delays & modulations are just awesome and I can't wait new projects to come :)
Do you use modulation? One of my favourite builds is the EA Tremolo. Very useable pedal. Another pedal I really love is the SHOD for overdrive. Also, I really like the Companion Fuzz. These are pedals I use all the time.

What about a boost?
You don't have a lit of boards already? Wah Compressor muff od delay phaser chorus sonic enhancer. That's my pedal board.

hey Jacob,
what about a versatile modulation? any suggestion?
the companion Fuzz I've never heard... its better than the tonebender mkii?
cheers
Ideally, all of them ;)
I'm particularly fond of the Ultrastoner to be fair and the 71 Triangle. They're both on the thicker side of the muff spectrum, very seventies... you might call them bushy...
For a middling great all-round muff, make a Mayo.
I'd definitly go with a Delay or a Comp....
First you can never get enough delay... :P
And a comp is a really usefull tool.
All of the above are good. Give Thomas_H a try, both his reverb and valvetizer are sweet, and different from what you already have, and he's in Deutschland.
I think the Slow Loris should be just as high on the list as any muff. That pedal is awesome.
LaVache. It's one of the first I built and more than a year later, it's STILL on my board. It just sounds so good!
I have built 2 of the keeley compressors from tagboard and mine is always on. I love it. Fun build!

Theres your problem right there. Trust me, you dont build pedals to USE them... ;-)

Well Paul, let me rephrase it:
What would be the next cool builds that i must build! ;)
Ive seen that everybody has totally different suggestions, difficult to choose the most cited ones....
doombutter with extra mods!
I also concur with the muff. So much fun to experiment with the circuit and all of its variants.
I recently came across a schematic on the kitrae site that I breadboarded and MAN its the bomber. Its a very early perf version of the "triangle" muff circa 1966. I immediately populated a mudbunny.

I'm not sure what you mean by versatile modulation? Like I said, I like Trem. I also like Phase myself, and occaisionally chorus. Getting all three in one box means multiple PCBs or a digital unit. Most DIY options are pretty much one PCB per effect. Sometimes you can get vibrato out of a chorus though.
The Compainion Fuzz is my favourite fuzz right now. It's crazy. I did a video recently, it's attached below. You can check out the build docs for that and other effects at www.jmkpcbs.com.

All the good ones are already mentioned! But here is my pick:
-Clean Boost (Thunderpuss!!)
-Muff (as many different versions as you can afford)
-Multiplex
-Weener
-JMK's Standard Fuzz (my own build report will follow soon, but it absolutely kills!!!)

That IS a fun one but I'm not too sure about USEFUL.
Anyway, don't ask me, I just ordered 5 new boards (Sharkfin, Pork Barrel, Low Rider, Current Lover, Double Flush) from Brian, I'm gearing up to etch about 6 others (Ego Driver, TriVibe, Callate, Boneyard, Slow Gear, Ruby) and I still want to add a multiplex from 1776 - so clearly I can't decide either!
Oh, and I started building a Sqweeker with my 7 year old but he's doing most of the work.

I'm pretty sure that "Till I Get My Way" by the Black Keys uses a Companion for the lead.
