After I tweak it a bit more I think I'm going to make a PCB for it as I've amassed a pretty gigantic collection of germanium transistors that sound great. Such a simple classic circuit but it sounds badass, into my orange in particular hence the color of the enclosure
I have a rangemaster obsession. How much for one of these?

70-100's usually pretty good.

$90 and it's yours.
I only made it to tweak to my liking before I finalize it and get a pcb made as well as getting a little experience in PTP wiring.
Not a fuzz to be sure; it's a chorus but I built this because I love how chorus sounds with fuzz. Think Husker Du, Slint, even Big Black on certain songs! I used the Madbean Pork Barrel PCB for it. I've had this finished for about six weeks but was in the middle of moving right after. That's always so much fun, isn't it?

Looks awesome man!

Fresnel lenses are the whole reason I started building pedals...there's a sweet red one on the stove in my house that may just "disappear"! Kidding, of course, but they do rule. This one is clear with a blue LED underneath.
Seriously, thanks dudes! Kind words from a fine family of builders. John, I've hit this thing with an RM Mongoose, a Buzzaround clone, and a DIY percolator (that I made), all with good results. Been trying out "Bad House" by Big Black with the latter.
