Tone Cleanser EQ

Detoxify your tone.

A boost circuit with a sweet 3-band EQ (Bass, Mid, Treble). Originally marketed (AFAIK) as a way to clean up your signal into a dirty amp by emulating a drop in the guitar volume pot and tweaking the tone, it can also be used to give a little push for more dirt.

However you want to use it - boost, cut, or unity tone tweak - it's a nice circuit that'll only colour your sound as much as you want it to.

The kit is supplied with vertical-mount pots which have round shafts, so you'll need set-screw fitting knobs.

If you want the PCB without parts there's a link for that at the bottom of the page.

Partial kit: PCB, all board-mounted components, pots.

Full kit: As above, plus footswitch and appropriate daughterboard/components for your selected bypass type (see Downloads section for details of those), jack sockets, DC socket, battery snap, hook-up wire, LED.

Enclosure (pre-drilled) is available as an option with full kits, and will not take a battery. Knobs are not included.

Builds are only available with full kits including enclosure and vertical-mount pots. Please choose appropriate knobs.
