Boxed this up tonight and I have fallen in love. Some great Stoner Rock tones to be had with this pedal. I am also finding the more I play with it that I love the "no diode" middle position on the diode switch. Its so harsh and LOUD in a good way.

nrrrg... got a couple bunny boards on order right now, one's going to be a Pharoah, the other I dunno. Maybe a Mayo or TSM680.
Can't wait to hear how this compares to the ?Lady. That is one of the best pedals for heavy stuff I've heard.
Yep, it's a fantastic sounding pedal.
Nice build!.
Do you paint your pc board? or did you buy it that color? Nice "blood" red Halloween theme going on in there. :)

Thanks, I buy my PCB clad with red laminate and I get them from eBay. I used to paint my vero strip boards but sometimes the heat from the iron will jack it up.
That's some awesome green shag you got going on too. 8) Great build!

I've had a homemade pharoah, and now have an ultra stoner (? Lady), slightly different beasts, the pharoah being slightly more heavy in the gain area, but the stoner holds it's own with the wide tonal versatility. Both are super muffs. Makes me want to move to the desert and smoke weed. ;D

I have a half built minimuff ultra stoner that I need to get some more 1/8 watt resistors to finish. I have heard good thing about it.
How does the mini lend itself to that iteration? Easy to apply the mods?
Btw, the no diode setting was my fave, too. Very gritty, fuzzy, and loud.

nice clean build!
pardon my ignorance, but is the diode lift on the first two?
I'm puttin' a Pharoah on my list!
beautiful build! I'm in the middle of an ultra-stoner muff right now. I'd love to hear how these compare... I have to say I love the little red caps you used. Did you pick those up online or at a local surplus?
Did I praise this build? Oh no, I neglected it! Sorry selfdestroyer!
You did an awesome job inside out, and I am pleased to see that lost of people are being turned to this variant of the muff.
Bunch of people, on the other hand, swear on the Earthbound Audio Supercollider as being the best, stonniest, most killer muff evah. It's just a couple of changes from the Pharaoh, but supposedly it rocks really really hard.
Has anyone got the Pharaoh parts list vs Mudbunny part no's? If so can you forward it to me and I'll strap it to the spreadsheet.

That gives me an idea. Next time I'm at the autoparts store I'll pickup some of that high temp spray paint (the stuff you use on exhaust manifolds) and give that a try. I use the photo positive pcb that I get locally, it only comes in vomit yellow brown. I like the black boards you use too.

Yes please. I've been wanting to build a Pharoah but was hoping this would happen. I've already built a P19 and Mayo using your list so thank you for providing that.

I built mine from the schematic/layout at fsb, it was called the horus.
Pm'd you, Juan

Cheers I'll get it fettled and added shortly.
Awesome build man. I love the pharaoh. I have BB lots of variants but the pharaoh always comes back as a favorite.
@juansolo: Attached is the parts list I used to build mine. There are a couple schematics out there that have incorrect coupling cap values so be careful what source you use. This list is correct based on many other sources i checked:
cheers guys. I'll get it added at some point, I've been a bit caught up in other stuff to get around to it.
Thanks for the parts list, pryde

K, i've chuck it on the spreadsheet. The hi/lo is parallel with the one on the board to make the wiring in the mudbunny easier. It gets you near as damnit 39k & 390k, you can use a single pole switch and it's less likely to pop that way. Also it hasn't got the mosfet power protection. But otherwise it should be about right.

Thanks, I love the spreadsheet you got going. I refer to it all the time.
For the High pot, which end of R19 is connected to pin 1? The end connected to Tone1, or the end going to Q3?

On the highs pot I believe you should connect pins 1&2 then connect them to the Q3 end of R19. Then pin 3 will connect back to the Tone 1 side of R19.
