From the vendor
Sometimes you just want to rip that audio signal apart and mash it into oblivion. Well lucky you...
This fella is designed to make your signal sound like all your gear is broken - absolutely destroyed.
If you crank the gain and wind up the overload control (works backwards to how you'd expect, but don't worry about it) you'll get blown-out but almost 'normal' distortion. Mess around with that overload control and the gain and you get some mad stuff going on. Signal ducking out, disappearing altogether then creeping back if you look at it the wrong way. It totally flips when you adjust any of your guitar controls. Just wild. Break free from the norm - break everything.
Partial kit: PCB, all board-mounted components, pots.
Full kit: As above, plus footswitch and appropriate daughterboard/components for your selected bypass type (see Downloads section for details of those), jack sockets, DC socket, battery snap, hook-up wire, LED.
Enclosure (pre-drilled) is available as an option with full kits, and will not take a battery. Knobs are not included.
Builds are only available with full kits including enclosures. Please choose appropriate knobs.
Inspired by: Absolute Destruction
Difficulty: Easy
PCB size: 50 x 30mm
Knobs required: 3
Enclosure: 1590B
