I think if any of us built this pedal we'd spend hours trying to trouble shoot that obnoxious oscillating, whining noise out of it.

I built a fuzz factory for my guitar player, and when it it started oscillating, i went to youtube, yep, sounds about right. Don't know
A) why the hell anybody would want that and
B) Why the hell I bought a board to build one for myself.

Hey Jimi, it looks complex.   i never used one  ... any sound clip in the future?
cheers
Yes, i ordered some inductors from Joe Gagan, as I was not happy with the one that I used, i now know why it doesn't sound good. I did a sound clip from the MoWah I built last week in the meantime though, it is in the Show off thread as well. I like wah builds, you don't have to fancy up the enclosure, and it only takes a few hours from start to finish.

Man, that 1590a is tight, I'm taking that hardware layout!

Mine aren't all spotless, but I have several I am proud of. What i do is populate the board, drill the box wire the pots to make sure the wire isn't going to be too long / short. Use longer in / out / +9 / ground wire than you're gonna need. Rocking and then box it using either heat shrink or electrical tape to keep the wire from getting out of hand. With the D'lat build, however, it just got out of hand quickly. The other thing I use is stomp boards, helps tremendously.

In relation to the old Fuzz Wah, I'm surprised someone hasn't done a wah-mudbunny build  ::)

Nice work!
Yet! Thank you sir!

My first pedal build, a GGG TS kit.

Kind of wish I still had that one for nostalgia's sake. I can't say it was a bad decision though because I'm not a fan of the mid hump and I traded it for an ISP Decimator. I can't imagine being without the Decimator unless there's a schematic for it and I can build it smaller.

Galego did a layout for it on diysb
I think there is a layout somewhere around here too. It's where I got mine.
The bass I got rid of,  managed to get it back. My brother years ago said, man don;t get rid of gear" and I haven't. I got stuff coming out my ears, my first bass, the first guitar I ever bought by myself....I do wish i hadn't trashed a peavey bass head from the 60's, I could have probably fixed it now that I know how.

Did yours work first try?
Sure did. I had to ask someone how to bias it, but no issues at all.

Just like the UpperDecker, the name NEVER gets old.

Nice Weiner Jimi. I have never really played with a weiner much but I may have to in the future.

That looks great. Always, if you can't fix it to perfection, go completely the opposite way! We cal it antiqued round these parts.  :-p

Sounds ok, I'm gonna try different inductors.There is a Dunlop bass wah inductor in there now. I really like the boost option.


Changed the inductor to a terrible toroid I got from Joe Gagan (3 pack of inductors for 20.00), sounds wah more better, keep in mind I'm a bassist.
