BBE AM64 American Metal

Here's the BBE AM64. While "Metal" is in its name, it seems more suited for heavier rock sounds. 70s metal at best. Nonetheless, it's a very good sounding distortion box. The circuit is essentially a Guv'nor with soft clipping instead of hard, along with a DS-1 tone stack.

      As far as I know, it has not been verified yet. (see the tag that says 'Unverified'?)

    Easy build, with great 70's era hard rock leads and chords, made a couple of changes to the pcb to enable board mounted pots (just a preference of mine) but kept all component values the same as the drawings. Well done, thanks!!

    Hello, first of all I want to thank you for your work, I assembled this pedal the other day, everything works, I used a 5532 op-amp, it works better than 072 for me. In the future, I want to try different diodes, I wonder how it will affect the sound. Thanks again, all the best!
