Tired of
going BROKE so you can buy gear? Why not build your own!
"How
to build your own effect pedals...a step by step guide...for
BEGINNERS"
|
Up until last year I had a ton of
questions with customers asking how they could get started and
learn how to build their own effect pedals. In response, I
wrote this book - "How to build your own Effect
Pedals...a step by step beginner's guide".
I've been
asked many times where to get a book like this and the truth
is that there isn't one! After searching for one to recommend
to my customers I decided that I would just write one in a
easy-to-understand and extremely user-friendly way!
Note:
This book is written for musicians, not technicians. This book
will help you get your personal sonic signature, and give you
the knowledge to change it when your tastes change. |

"How do you build effect
pedals? Can anyone do it?"
I hear this so often...and there didn't use to be an easy
way to learn to build effect pedals. Several different authors
have written several books on learning to build effects which
are great if you want to learn but unfortunately after
reading their books, many folks felt like they just got done
reading an algebra book.
In fact, I use to feel the same way! I
just wanted to pick up a book and build a pedal that same day-
and have it work!!...IMPOSSIBLE with the other books
out there.
I remember when I was first learning all
about electronics and effects and I had read many books out
there. None of them explained it in an easy to understand
language that we use in day to day conversations. All of them
went deep into the theory, but didn't hold the reader by the
hand and walk them through building effects successfully. None
of them will explain to you how to experiment with
"mini-circuits" and develop your own pedals tailored
to your ideal sound.
Even worse, NONE of them provide any
technical support! What happens if you can't get a project
working with any other book? You have to junk it.
I ended up having to learn alot by trial
and error. A good but expensive teacher. All of that can be
avoided though! My personal email address is provided in the
book, you will be able to contact me with your problems and
questions...oh YES! I provide one huge benefit that the
other books can't even dare to do.
Technical support.
Have a problem with one of the circuits?
Can't get it to work? Have a question? Simply email me at my
private email address in the book and we'll work it out
together. Phone consultations can be scheduled as well. Who
else does this?! That's easy: NO one!

Subject: Read your new effects book
Brian,
Finished reading through your book and I have to say,
way to go! I think
anyone just getting started in building effects would
find this easy to
read, understand and very helpful. I found the first
part of the book to
be a good refresher. The last section was interesting
for me as I have
never used the Vero board before. I also liked the
part of modifying /
adding to pedals as I am getting ready to do just
that. The guys who have
been doing this for some time may not find anything
new here, but for the
beginner I think it is worth giving it a look at. Once
again just my
opinion ;)
Just wanted to pass on my thoughts / impression. Have
a good one Brian and
talk with you later.
Sincerely,
Bradley 'tweaker' Trombley

"...I did the mod to my SD-1 and it's still my #1
overdrive. I have a ton of overdrive/distortion pedals and I have used that
one in the 5 rigs that I've gone through in the two years I have had it. It
sounds like God..."
