As promised, the inventory reduction sale starts today. There are ton of boards on sale a decent reductions.
The sale is on:
Firebomb, Slambox, Boomstick, Sabertooth, Zombii, Pork Barrel, Macheen, Poindexter, Aristocrat, Darkside, Neutrino, Serendipity, Sunking and Yellow Shark.
New fabbed boards are available.
Double Flush - modded Bajaman Trembulator
Mangler - old project with a new design---classic fuzz face with PCB mounted pots and mojo parts layout
Rangemaster - similar to the previous layout but with PCB mounted pot
Bloviator - Bajaman Sonic Stump / Sonic Stomp
I'm also doing something new with the re-stocked Sunking boards. There will be a limit of three per order from now until they are gone. Since this may be the last time it is stocked, I want to make sure that everyone who wants one gets one. Also, to avoid someone floating in, buying a bunch and then seeing new builds up on eBay, haha! And, yeah, I'm going to be a hard-ass about it. Orders of more than three Sunkings will be cancelled or modified. Sorry to be mean...but I'm also trying to be fair.
The new fabbed boards will be here in a couple of days. I'm making ordering avilable now to coincide with the sale. Also, there will be some new documentation coming for those.
Cheers!
Order placed! Thanks Brian!
Just ordered two Sunking Boards! Thanks a bunch Brian.
Eep! You sure know how to make me spend $!

Yay!... my cart is filling up! Looks like I'll be eating beans and rice on more than just Mondays for the next few months. :D
There will be two new projects released later this week: the Quadrovibe and a new overdrive called the Tilt. The only holdup is that I'm going to be ordering some of the lamps needed for the Quadrovibe. These will be included for the first 25 or so boards free of charge.
The Tilt is turning out pretty awesome. It's a combo of a mosfet boost into a single muff stage with a passive baxandall and then a recovery stage. It sounds rad!

Sounds awesome! Would it be tacky to ask for a part# on the lamp? I'm REALLy looking forward to your originals Brian. Much more exciting!
Can we presale/call dibs for the quadrovibe? :)

Do you think you will still have Sunkings in stock when these new boards are available? I would just rather place one order, that's all.

+1 I really want to order both of those projects as well as others like the Sunking, Zombii and Mangler...
-Kaleb
Based on the pace at which the sale is going, I'd advise not to wait for any new projects. More than half of the new stock of Sunkings have been spoken for in the last 24 hours. They might sell out before the end of the week. Just fair warning.
Wow Bean!!! You should have a few more "Inventory reduction (all projects are being discontinued) sales" and retire to the Bahamas at a young age. Kick back on the beach with a drink in a pineapple.
LOL, that sounds more like torture. I'd be bored in two days.
Thanks for the awesome sale! Most of those boards I havn't built yet so I grabbed them all. ;D
Are you still working on a DMM-ish delay or have you scraped that idea altogether?
Cool sale, I grabbed some Sunkings. I'd love to get an Aristo and Darkside, but I'm too damn broke these days.
Aqua-B isn't going anywhere, right? I keep putting that project off, but it's just a matter of time. I'd hate to miss out on one of those sweet babies.
i have some Aqua Boys, semi-populated in the buy/sell just for you..

Welp...bit the bullet and ordered 2 Sunkings, a Zombii and a Mangler...So next up will be the vibe and the tilt!
Thanks Brian! :)

Man I hope not. I really want to build the Dirtbag delay and see if I can kick my Carbon Copy into the "for sale" bin.
The DirtBag is still happening. The layout is almost finished.

Good thing that BYOC opened their store making it much easier!!! I am curious about the pricing though.
Unless you can lead us to a good source :)
Super cool new black boards! And, no pot wiring required, if'n you want.
[attachment deleted by admin]
It's like, how much more black could this be? and the answer is none. None more black.
COOL ! Even if I ordered a lot of boards this week I was hoping to build a fuzz face, so I'll sure put another order ::)
What's different between the old zygote boards and the new mangler?
I've got a lot of cool germ nos trannies to try :)
The Mangler is pretty much the original Zygote. So, it's a straight-up FF. The only extra is the trimmer for biasing. I also included a little "test" pad that you can poke your DMM into to read the biasing voltage. This is a little easier than trying to take readings off the transistor leads.
The only reason I didn't call it the "Zygote" is that the most recent iteration of it had a lot of extra mods and stuff with it, and I don't want people to get confused thinking that this new one is a fabbed version of that Zygote. This one is bare-bones, high quality and cheap!

I have to say, I'm pretty excited about building this. I've been recently tinkering with some fuzz sounds in my POD X3 live (I've never owned a real fuzz pedal before :() and I've been digging the fuzz face a LOT! So yeah....I ordered one yesterday so I'm counting the days until it's here! :D
Thanks Brian! You rock!

Beautiful work Brian. I can't wait to receive the Bloviator!... can't wait for your new projects too. ;D
Any word on when the new build instructions for the Double Flush will be available?

My plan is tomorrow afternoon after a very long morning of bagging and tagging orders due out.
Noooo :-[ I missed the Sunking. In the process of moving and haven't checked the forum from last week when it said they would be in stock on 5/31.
Any chance someone wants to sell me one?

I have the same question about the Mangler :) I received it yesterday and I really want to get started with it. Thanks man! The boards look fantastic...

Check the projects page. I finished putting the remaining docs yesterday :)

Thanks man! U da man!

Has anybody heard if all orders have been shipped? I see that Kaleb got his so I am excited!

Quick question (and first post)...Are all the sale items up for 'elimination' once the currenct stock has sold out? Specifically interested in the Neutrino, since it's such a great tweakable circuit.
is the darkside going to be discontinued?

Yes.

Yes. Buy them while you can! I picked up one of these as well just to give it a go.
Would be cool if there was a counter next to every project ;) So I can see if I need a mortgage on short term ;D
I'll just throw this out there.....
Do what I do and download the PDFs and learn how to etch :)
And very soon you will have Ian's personal tutorial for such a thing!

Basic Audio's PCB etching tutorial is very informative. The only thing I'm still left wondering about is drilling the pcb. It's probably not gonna makes sense until I try it myself.
If I can etch- anyone can!
I'll also throw out there. Support Brian by purchasing his boards, but learn to etch so you will always have the ones he discontinues.
Hey everyone,
This is my first post. Thanks Brian for the super fast delivery of my PCB's. They came in yesterday and I'm in The Netherlands. Now that's quick!
Can't wait to get started on the 12 pedals.. (yes, I know, I could not help myself :P )
Cheers.
Ordered some Darksides. Built one just this week and I love it.
:o :o :o :o :o :o :o
omg!
totally missed that the Sale items are going out of production when this their last batch is sold.
Just bought a way to expensive guitar to :-[ so cant really go and buy ALL
of the soon to be unavalible boards.
20days to payday eeek.
Zombii
Sabretooth
ChunkChunk
Firebomb
Darkside
DeadRinger
Poindexter
I "must" atleast get those.
ANY idea If there is enough left of theese, or can they be all sold out any day now?!
/thanks for all your great projects, built loads so far and always happy with the results.
The Zombii is almost gone, but the others are still in sufficient stock to last for a bit. The Chunk Chunk is not being discontinued, and as of right now I plan on keeping the Deadringer and Poindexter around for a bit.

Thanks a lot for such a speedy reply! :)
phew, I'm a little calmer now then ;D
Anyone have a spare Sunking they'd like to sell me? Missed the last run >:(
bit late to the party, but glad to be sending some $$ your way bean for all your hard work, love the pdf's always clean and great to go back too, again and again.
