Welcome to the Revolution

Hi there, welcome to my blog - La Revolution Deux. It's an odd name - but I like it! Here you will find all the info on my various DIY Guitar effects builds, amplifiers and guitars. Everything from a humble Ibanez tubescreamer to the holiest KLON Overdrive.

You may also find a few effects builds that I am looking to move on - usually in exchange for other effects/gear/cash. You can always check my ebay account to see what I've got up for grabs.

Have fun, enjoy the blog - Fred Briggs :-)

Toneczar Openhaus - Distortion and Overdrive



Anyhow - here is the latest offering from the wonderful freestompboxes.org - the ToneCzar Openhaus distortion. It's a pretty brutal distortion circuit (it's build complexity it pretty high too!) Here's a link to the ToneCzar Openhaus instruction manual: http://toneczar.com/downloads/features-openh.pdf
