Title: Build #49 - Secrets of the Black Arts
Post by: Kunfuz on October 02, 2014, 06:24:23 AM
A Black Arts Ritual Fuzz built up on my Eat Meat Damn It! v1.1 board.
With 2N2222 at both Q1 and Q2. Black powdercoat for extra evilness.
I have now built 5 circuits with this board, and a total of three today  ;D

After playing with it for 15min now I must say that this, along with the meat head dark, is the most brutal and thick sounding OKF I've tried yet   8)

Digging the graphic you used on this one, just one question; What the hell happened to your wiring, i can now see the circuit in your gut shots? :P ;D

Looks great!  Are the others variants with different values, or are they all the same?

Muddy, start with a few keywords, like dark comic art for example.  Then when you find something you like, it becomes a bit easier to search by artist, genre, character, etc.  you can also fine tune by selecting line drawing, photo, b&w, etc in the search parameters

They are all different values, and different trannies.

Looks awesome.  PCB mounted pots are the shiznit.  Makes me want to try a 2n2222 version now.  :)

Agreed.  I don't believe the Fez actually built it.  It must have been built by a Swiking apprentice of some sort.
