Title: Haunting Mids Overhype
Post by: Adam_DIY on January 30, 2018, 08:56:20 PM
I decided to rebuild my first ever pedal I was originally just going to redo the wiring but it was pretty noisy and the 3pdt was borked so I just pulled the guts and gave it a complete overhaul.  It's a Son of Clay Jones on a tagboard effects layout which I added the extra clipping options from the landgraff.  I'm really digging this now it sounds pretty sweet.

This is how it originally looked I was super pleased with this back in Aug 2015

I don't actually have a gutshot for this I think I was too excited to get it working and just shoved all the wires in wherever I could get them to fit

And after

I had to move the dc socket because I put the extra clipping in and didn't have as much clearance as I thought I did.  I'll grab a 12mm rubber bung/gasket from a hardware store to fill the hole

Thanks chaps I'll be honest I surprised myself when I found that original photo on my pc and realised I started in august 2015 I hadn't realised I'd been building for that long.

All props to the guys on here though this forum is where I've learned everything it's a very helpful noob friendly place with some scarily knowledgable people on it.

Totally agree.  The photo editing and envirotex skills I picked up here came in handy for some LOTR style Elven Christmas ornaments me and the Mrs gave out to family and friends a while ago.
