Title: Mudbunny/skreddy P19 build
Post by: ElCapitan on October 22, 2016, 06:59:37 PM
Thanks much to m-kresol's help with a capacitor question.  Here is my Mudbunny build to Skreddy P19 specs.   Not as much gain as I would expect in a muff,  but what's there is killer sounding.  It also sounds great after my overdrive, especially when I hit it hard.  This sounds much more like a distortion than a fuzz to me.   One slight snag:  the treble is pretty high on this pedal.  Mostly I run it off or just above off.  At zero there is a slightly different character to the pedal's eq overall than if I put just a touch of tone on it.  Interesting.  I don't think this is a normal aspect of the pedal.   But all in all, I'm pretty pleased.

Looks good! Glad I could help.

I experienced similar things with pots as you described with your tone control. I figured it might just be the wiper doin funky business at the end of the turn.

If you want a low end muff, I'd recommend the ultrastoner project from Grind customs. that one got massive balls.
