2014 Chimbolo fx begins

Welcome to Chimbolo fx, this blog will be dedicated to Guitar and Bass Effect Pedal builds. 


Late last year I began to modify my pedals. I started with a Boss DS-1 by preforming the Keeley mods. After a few tries I finally got it to work. I then modded a TS-9, Crybaby wah, and an MXR classic overdrive. Once I finished the Classic Overdrive I was out of pedals to mod and I did not want to buy anymore. I began to research pedal building and found out there were many sites and resources for Strip board layouts. My first build was  a cut down version of a Woolly Mammoth.
 
                                                              I only had an Ipod case for an enclosure.

Building that pedal was great experience. I have built 8 pedals since that Woolly Mammoth and with everyone I keep learning more.

Within this blog you will see my attempts at building pedals and  step by step descriptions of how I did it.
