NOLK

Post by morange »

I took a stab at what we talked about in this haunting mids thread.

Image
(The Nolk gazes also into you.)

7 are available, built, and they will ship the day after you pay. Just send me a pm.
$134 shipped worldwide.
$10 for each of these 7 will be donated to ILF to help with hosting costs.

(There is also strip of foam to keep the battery snug, left out in this pic so you can see the wiring and stuff.)

The circuit is a variation of the Bee Baa. It's a heavy fuzz that sounds great with chords.
The right switch is bypass, the left cuts your mids (the Nolk accepts your offering).

More features:
Professionally manufactured PCB
True Bypass
Volume, Tone, and Sustain knobs
Primitive stamped graphic
Quality components
Great build quality/nice looking spaghetti
Machined aluminum knobs
Rugged powder coat finish
Runs on +9V center negative supply or battery, with the typical battery disconnect switching (battery is disconnected when input jack is unplugged or power jack is plugged in)

The circuit boards are serial numbered in binary using the three sets of 4 resistors along the top of the circuit board. Gold band down is 1.

DEMOS

Telecaster into Nolk into Audacity through Edirol UA-25EX interface

[soundcloud]https://soundcloud.com/effectbanks/nolk1[/soundcloud]
Max gain, neck pickup

[soundcloud]https://soundcloud.com/effectbanks/nolk2[/soundcloud]
Max gain, neck pickup

[soundcloud]https://soundcloud.com/effectbanks/nolk3[/soundcloud]
Min gain, bridge pickup, guitar volume rolled off some, then turned up

You could play these through your amp to get an idea about how it'll really sound, since these are recorded direct.
