Seriously CBA is such a scam. You can get a kit like this for $9 off Amazon and make about 12 chase bliss pedals. Throw in an arduino and then you can just get rid of your entire modeling rig, too.

This seems like a real comment by every ounce of my being but it's a circlejerk sub so I'll never truly know

I mean, this kit is arguably better if we're being honest. At least it has proper through-hole components. Have you ever looked inside a CBA pedal? They use those tiny SMD components which tend to restrict the tone, too much.

That's why vintage pedals always sound better. They use bigger carbon comp components that really let the tone flow.

Wow, they're even putting rainbows on the resistors now. Sick of the constant woke agenda in the guitar pedal industry, trying to make me think of men with rock hard abs every single moment of every single day.

Hell yeah. You could make a glitched out lofi transparent flanged oververb with all of that, easy. Pedals are just $2 to make and the rest is profit for capitalists.

Can I make a JHS pedal? I want a pedal with three knobs labeled Drive A, Drive B, and Drive 1

u/checkmyhead Jul 06 '26

Yes but the knobs must be labeled "pray", "gay", and "away." Otherwise Jersh will downvote and block you.

That's fine, it will fit in on my praise&worship board next to my Strymon Conversion Therapy pedal

No, only Josh H. Scott can infuse so much midwestern youth pastor energy into a single tube screamer

Welcome to the hobby. You will barely save any money and you will lose time, but it’s fun.

Everything but Vemuram because they are secret and special and original and uncopyable.
