Volt Thump

Metal wrecking machine in a box.

Based on the beloved Integrated Pre circuit, this signature pedal has been tweaked to pumelling perfection, adding extra gain and filtering to your dimed high-gain amp tone.

Achieving around 33V of mayhem from your 9V supply, it'll push your amp into unchartered gain territory while clearing up a lot of the mud you can get from taking things so far.

NOTE: If you aren't doing extremely high gain chugging metal, don't bother. This is of no use at all to you.

The kit is supplied with a vertical-mount pot which has a round shaft, so you'll need a set-screw fitting knob.

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, pot.

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 partial kits, and will not take a battery. Knob is not included.

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