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 :-)

Suhr - Riot



Super High Gain Mayhem. That's what the Suhr Riot is great at. There is a project available for the pedal now online at freestompboxes.org. Go and check it out, tune down and mosh off ;-)

I'm just going to send you to where you need to go to get this built - the brilliant www.madbeanpedals.com (His site, pcbs and projects are top quality and I would recommend them to anyone looking to build DIY fx, make sure you check out his whole website) - http://www.madbeanpedals.com/projects/Uproar/docs/Uproar.pdf

Here's the freestompboxes topic; http://freestompboxes.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=10133

Thanks to all those involved. Originally this was a project undertaken by the Freestompboxes "Tracer's Fund" which is a communal pot that goes into buying and developing projects of the latest and greatest boutique fad boxes. Take a trip over to the forum if you're interested in getting involved :-)
