The Guitar Knobs

Alex Guaraldi of Coppersound Pedals stops in again to share their newest edition in the DIY Cir-Kit series. The Boost-a-Drive-a-Fuzz, as seen on JHS’ Short Circuit with Josh Scott, is an incredibly fun build kit that covers sounds from Electra Distortion, the RAT, and the Fuzz Face. On top of that, the Coppersound team has probably spent even more time on a thorough and thoughtful step-by-step guide and accompanying videos. Best in class!

Oh yeah, and he is an actual quantum physicist, so he has that going for him.
