Built this for the Bass player in http://www.everything-everything.co.uk/home

Its obviously a woolly mammoth :) added an input impedence control also




smelly vero and bad wiring


LaceSensor

vero and terrible wiring. Im glad noone commented actually :)

Well it's for a bass player, after all...  ::)

;D

I love the looks of that pedal. As to the smelly vero, I have no complaints. If it works, and doesn't have excessive noise, all is good.

Yeah the vero is fine. Ive built a few WM on vero and its such a simple circuit thats there barely a need for a PCB, other than convenience and wiring the pots.

Cheers guys!

I like it! The wiring isn't bad and the graphics are cool. You guys don't like vero boards huh? I guess it's a good thing i'm going to start etching then...

Bah, looks fine. Look, can anything nest in it? If not, it's all good ;)

Nah vero is welcomed. Real skill is making a vero build look neat and tidy.
This was a bit of a rush job. Its all solid though.

HAving said that, I cut my teeth on vero but massively prefer 2side fab PCBs and have for a long while.

Looks cool!  Keeping wiring neat is always a pain when you have to offboard wire pots.  Nice job.

How does the impedance control sound?  Is it useful for active vs passive pickups?

If that's messy wiring please never look at my projects... Nice build though looks professional!

Hi rully
The impedance control is really useful. it offers some different toanz.
Its basically the relax/push control from the ZVEX Mastotron.
It is especially for active and passive basses, but also means that you can have the woolly anywhere in a chain and not lose the original sounds.

That's a neat trick!  Thanks for explaining.

Its a 100r in series to lug 3, then 1+2 to input on the PCB. 100kb pot.

Looks nice Lace. I wish I could get any of my vero builds looking like that. My vero builds all rival juansolo's first build.
