Sputnik




These are pics of my recent pedal build. It's a Build Your Own Clone Large Beaver, which clones a triangle-era Big Muff pedal. The electronics portion of the build went really smoothly, especially considering that there are at least three different versions you can build from the BYOC instructions. The wiring is probably the cleanest I've done so far, helped immensely by the fact that all of the potentiometer wires are tucked underneath the board.

It sounds really sweet, starting from a basic overdrive to the intense grungy sounds of a big muff when it's turned up. Now it's time to move onto the envelope filter and to finish up the flanger. The biggest thing holding me back is painting.
