2 guitar pedals

#1: Mosfet Clean Boost
Boosts signal from 3 to 35dB without adding any signal distortion. This was a fairly simple one to build. I call it the "Little Pink Boost Box." Brittany made it all cutsie with the hearts and lettering :)





#2: TS808 Tube Screamer Clone
This pedal is actually two TS808's in one case. The TS808 is essentially the best sounding overdrive pedal in the history of electric guitars. When both are on at once there is so much awesome feedback. I also added two switches for each pedal within the pedal: one to boost the bass/low end, and another to increase distortion. Both were easy mods to add in. James and I made our own circuit boards too. All you have to do is either draw them onto a copper/fiberglass sheet with a permanent marker or use a printer + transfer paper and iron them on (which is what we did). Then you put the boards into a chemical solution (I forget what it is, but thats not important) and the non covered copper essentially dissolves off leaving the circuit paths you want. The pedal also has a PBR faceplate which I am pretty pumped about, and matching colored LEDs. Theres also a layer of acrylic sheet on the bottom that shines two more LEDs mounted inside.
