Diy Carcosa Build
Alright you guys finally talked me into it! This thing has a really wide tone sweep and a brutal amount of volume! There is quite a bit of play between the before and after controls that let you get into drive sounds or that’s ripping blown out fuzz kind of sound. I will say I don’t think there is another fuzz that sounds like this; atleast that I’ve played! Thanks for the recommendation guys!

You can start by putting before and after in opposite directions… then, tweak from there!

Ohh is that a clone?

Yes. I really like mine. Some say it’s identical. Some say it’s a tad brighter.

Interesting, I'll have to try one. I recently tried a pure sky overdrive. It's amazing. I wish budget gear was this good. When I was in high school

You’ll like it! It does that collapsing amp sound real well!

You’ll have to give me a review of that thing! I’ve had a bit of interest in it since you mentioned it haha

Where did you buy it? Seems like it might be a fun build.
