Custom one-of-a-kinds…

"Real Emotional Fuzz"

This pedal is a fuzz clone on veroboard titled "Real Emotional Fuzz." The enclosure was designed and etched to resemble the cover art of the album. It is a one-of-a-kind gift (not for sale). This pedal was given to Stephen Malkmus by my nephew at the Stephen Malkmus & the Jicks concert in St. Louis on 11/01/2008.

The insides were rushed together in about 2 hours (I received the parts via mail the morning of the concert!). I would have preferred more time to make the insides cleaner but we had a 4-hour drive ahead of us and I ran out of time.

This is a good example of custom enclosures that I have made.
Neat features for this pedal include:
  • Eyes light up when the pedal is engaged
  • Lightly aged enclosure
  • Custom graphics etched into enclosure
