Title: Alembic stratoblaster finished.
Post by: danwelsh on April 02, 2013, 05:05:28 PM
I made this boost following a fine fellows video on youtube how to make a guitar pedal in 10 minutes....it works really well....i used a 2n4392 transistor and an enclosure i already had...it works really well.:)

I'll second that^
I've put one in all my solid body guitars.
That's a cool looking pedal. 8)

Oh gotcha, and no problem i can name pedals all ay for other people,It's weird I don't really name my own. I threw out the name for the dragons' breath also that in the contest. Mine have clever names like the joker delay and the rasta einstein delay or delay zilla,or the stewie phaser,casue that's the pictures on them!
  I'm still trying to decide how many pedals I want on my board. So far it's 8 becasue that's all my power supply will support. I have a second power supply for my board I just haven't put it on there yet. The problem with that is,it gets heavy quickly!
