Lunar Module Clone
I built out the board for this Lunar Module clone a couple of weeks ago, but hadn't put it in an enclosure yet. With the Telematic in the house, that seemed more pressing. So here it is. I love these wedge enclosures. Very retro and cool. I try not to shill for people, especially if I don't know them, but Skreddy really brought an amazing pedal to the world with the Lunar Module.
It's supposed to sound like Gilmour's, 'Dark Side of the Moon' setup, which was a Colorsound Overdriver into a silicon Fuzz Face, I believe. This will get you pretty close to Gilmour, but it does all kinds of other things, too. That lower left knob adjusts how much voltage hits the second transistor and it can change the whole sound of the pedal. The center top knob pans between two different input capacitors and can really change the voicing because it not only adds low end, but adds it early in the signal chain (right up front), so that changes how the pedal clips.
These things are just amazing. I completely endorse them. I want to buy one of the Hybrid Fuzz Drivers, which I believe are built on the same PCB as the Lunar Module, only with one germanium transistor and two silicon instead of all three silicon.
Like I'd guessed, this was a whole different beastie with single-coil pickups. I'd only ever used the old one I built (and let go as part of the Troika Kickstarter) with humbuckers. Yeah, this is great. Never gonna let this one go. Barring tragedy or something.
