Title: Jaymz
Post by: juansolo on June 02, 2011, 08:43:25 PM
My second attempt at a Dr Boogey. The first was on vero and was a rats nest of wiring. It was so noisy I recycled it thinking I'd never revisit this pedal. Then Madbean went and did a PCB for it and I thought I'd give it another chance.

I'm glad I did, with a few more pedals under my belt this one is a hell of a lot neater and given how high gain this thing is, a massive amount quieter. Indeed it's made my Blackstar amp redundant as the one thing I've been keeping it for was it's low volume impression of a Mesa Rectifier, which I can now replicate on my MJW replacement.

Love the 'Hetfield-in-power-stance' graphic!  You are one talented fella!
Is is just me or do those pots have some kinda cover on them???

Man! I wish I knew how you kept your wiring so neat! Great job as always; hopefully my Dr. Boogie comes out this well once I start working on it!!

Nice wiring. You're getting quite good at that...
