Hey,
This is my first post here. I've been wanting to start building my own effects for a while now, and I've decided to start with a clone of the Cowther Hotcake. I've been looking for a pedal to drive my AC30CCH for a while now, and this pedal just sounds amazing with the amp.
I've taken some electrotech courses in college, so I have a decent understanding of how to read diagrams, solder, and what most of the components do. I also do work on my guitars, so I don't think I'm a complete beginner; but this will be my first pedal build from scratch.
I think I'm going to order the Big Dipper Effects Short Stack
I also found http://tagboardeffects.blogspot.ca/2012/02/crowther-hotcake.html There are some difference between the caps used in both.
I'm just wondering if anyone here has tried to diy one of these pedals, and if you could give me a few pointers.
Thanks!
