Maestro Filter Sample/Hold FSH-1

A Maestro Filter Sample/Hold FSH-1 built on a Tonepad PCB, with Panasonic caps and electros. As well as the stock Range and Speed controls, this one has additional Attack, Decay and Resonance controls. The second footswitch selects either Filter or Sample & Hold and the toggle sets the direction up or down. Finished in a silver vein powdercoat with a white LED.

Vox V809 Repeat Percussion

A Vox Repeat Percussion with additional tone and rate switches. The knobs control Rate, Depth and Volume. There is also an additional boost section added to the stock circuit for some extra output. Built on vero with Wima caps, metal film resistors, red LED, Daka-ware knobs and a gold hammerite finish.
For Benjamin in Australia.

Vox V809 Repeat Percussion

A Vox Repeat Percussion clone on vero. This one has a tone switch to allow for more bass through the circuit (the stock setting cuts some low end) and another toggle to switch between two rate ranges. There’s also an additional boost stage with a Volume knob to set the output level, as well as the usual Rate and Depth knobs. It uses Wima caps and BC electros with metal film resistors, a blue ultrabright LED and silver hammertone finish.

Original Vox Repeat Percussion V809

An original Vox V809 Repeat Percussion plug-in module. This one is in particularly nice condition with its original box and instruction leaflet, and sounds great. One of my favourite effects since I first heard it on Spacemen 3 records way back when. You can hear it on the intro to How Does It Feel? below. Thanks to Paul in the U.S. for rescuing this from the Bay for me.


Schaller Tremolo

A clone of the Schaller Tremolo built using BC109 and 2N3904 silicon transistors with Panasonic caps and electros. There is also an additional boost section which enables the output to get way past unity gain. The toggle switch disengages the modulation so the pedal can also just be used as a booster. The knobs control Volume, Speed and Depth and the second footswitch acts as a rate doubler, going between two speed ranges. There is a dual-colour LED that indicates which speed range is selected and the bypass LED also acts as a tempo indicator.

Vox V809 Repeat Percussion

A clone of the Vox V809 Repeat Percussion with Depth and Rate controls. It also features a tone switch that goes between the stock tone and a more full range tone. The other toggle switches between two Rate ranges. There’s also a boost section which allows an output higher than the bypassed signal, which can be adjusted with the internal trimmer.
For Alessandro in Italy.
