well done video!
I've always wondered: on finishes like yours, do you use rustoleum and then a darker paint and brush away the exposed parts  ???

Funny that you replied! I was just looking at your Sunking build and wondering where I could get those boards. I'm dying to build one of those. (Maybe you could PM me your source  ;) )

I actually had the enclosure made for me by PedalPartsPlus.com. They have a great selection of paint jobs. I was actually wondering myself about their methods!

Thanks for checking it out.

I just finished a Boomstick build for a friend and had to go ahead and do a demo for everyone! I love this pedal! Just the right amount of gain and the tone knob is very versatile. It makes the pedal usable across several different guitars.

Also, I have to send my thanks to Haberdasher for the excellent board! Real quality! I'll be ordering again soon.

Hope you enjoy! (PS: sorry for the silly guitar work, just pluggin' and playin')

Wooohooo! Nice looking pedal there buddy! I'm glad to see the little pregain trick got some use. Now I have to build another one and show off some guts.  ;D Keep on rockin'!

Very cool dude! Awesome demo

2 questions, did you use a reverse audio pot for Fuzz? and what voltage you used to bias the trannies?

I have one and I love it, but I keep messing with it and I wanna see other people's mods. Loved the pre-gain knob btw. Cool addition.

Nope. I didn't use reverse audio, just a linear pot. The voltage was pretty regular too: -4.5 v.

Sounds great dude! Clean look. I switch between humbuckers and single coils all the time so I am wondering what you did for the pre gain pot.

Care to enlighten me?

Sure. It is just about a as easy as you could ever imagine. The pregain pot is a 100kB placed before the input of the board. It's just wired to give variable resistance, no grounds necessary. I copied the idea from the dude at Fuzz Central and his "Axis Face Silicon" and it works pretty well!  ;D

Thanks so much folks! It does have some great sounds available. I can't wait to build mine! Also, I agree. The knobs are pretty cool. I got 'em at small bear and they are built pretty well. The set screws are very smooth. Pretty schweet!

Build Reports / Mangler Demo

Howdy folks. This is my first post on this forum so I though I'd share a demo of my completed Mangler fuzz.

I LOVE this pedal. I built it for a friend and, suspecting it would sound incredible, ordered two boards so I could have one too. Man, am I glad I did. These boards are so easy to work with.

I LOVE it.

Anyway, enjoy the demo folks!
