Electra pedal! Technically, this is a rebuild from the scrap box. I built this in 2016, but the box looked like a trainwreck.
For some reason I used nail polish in some attept to do a hack clear coat job. It did not play well with black paint! Then I dremeled the paint off which just gouged the aluminum. Oops. Finally, the 3PDT switch gave out. Those blue ones suck.
So, it is a redo, a rebox, and a repaint. And I swapped out the 2n3904 for 2n2369.
Ducky is sniffing intently.
I used the Cricut to cut the vinyl which looks way better.
If your looking for a first pedal to DIY, this is the one. Dirt simple and it sounds fine.
The Electra circuit is your basic transistor based overdrive.
