Ready to get hands-on and create your very own guitar effects pedals?

Join us for two exciting one-day workshops where you'll hand-wire an exclusive Harmonic Percolator style fuzz, or a spacey Weird Chorus pedal specially designed for these workshops.

You'll be under the expert tuition of Dom Allen from Everybody Hertz, guiding you through each step of building your own pedal and learning plenty of new skills to fuel your future DIY pedal projects.

11 October:

"Harmonic Percolator style-fuzz"

There are few guitar effects that have developed a cult of personality and mystery around them like the InterFax HP-1 Harmonic Percolator fuzz. Famously made in small numbers in the 1970's & used by Steve Albini. During this workshop you will be selecting and auditioning vintage components to make your own horrible sounding fuzz machine.

18 October:

"Weird Chorus Pedal"

After all this noise from the last weekend it's time to get a bit sophisticated with the Everybody Hertz Weird Chorus Pedal Workshop. This is an experimental circuit which produces a thick chorus effect, & various other unexpected sounds, including pitch bend, modulated delays and a kind of ring modulation.

No previous electronic experience is required for either workshop. All tools and materials are provided. Strictly limited to 10 places per workshop.
