Working in a hospital is depressing right now so I decided to build two pedals this weekend while binge watching season 3 of the Ozarks. First up is a fuzzdog magnavibe. Sounds nice and wobbly, I dig it.


Next up is an Elka Dizzy Tone built on a pedal pcb buzzaround. Slight variations in the schematic make a noticable difference to my madbean bumblebee. This thing rips. Thanks for the inspiration guys. Stay safe out there.

Pedal building is like the opposite of sex.  All the fun stuff happens before you get in the box.

Looks great! How good was season 3? Man that show just keeps on kicking ass.

Nice work!  I think the knobs should have been labelled 'Groot?' and 'Groot!' though.  ;)

Ooh, big fan of both of these circuits. What changes are made to make a buzzaround into a dizzy tone?

Nice. What cans are you using in the Elka? I've got a couple of Buzzarounds that are WIP.

Q1 and Q2 are oc76 and Q3 3ax31c. hfe is Q1 51, Q2 52 and Q3 is 75. Leakage is typical buzzaround leakages. I had Steve at smallbear put the set together for me back in december and just got around to putting it together.
