Title: The Holy Hand grenade and other builds
Post by: jimilee on January 01, 2023, 11:20:34 PM
I made some 3pdt boards to line up with my pedals. It's much quicker to wire.

The build is a Timmy. I found various schematics online, so I mixed them up and here is what I decided on.

I did figure out it sounds better with single coils, humbuckers get all muddy.

This bad body is the Supercharged Overdrive. There are no clean settings here it's all dirt all day long. Sounds fantastic.

This is part of the Ibanez sound tank series, the CD-5 Cyberdrive. From what I understand, it's an Ibanez wah in a 125b rather than a wah shell.

Timmeh!
I don't need to build another overdrive on top of the other overdrive I said I wouldn't build, buteyemight  : P

I also need to whip up a bypass pcb that's actually mine. I have enough mental separation I think I've forgotten pretty much everything.

The Hacker looks interesting, too. I've never done a wah sans the foot pedal, but my friend did a "reverse wah" seagull once.
