I mostly post about DIY guitar pedals and sometimes my cats.

You can see my DIY guitar pedal builds and instructions on how to build them on my website: https://crazychickenguitarpedals.com/
You know when you Spotify suggest new music to you and the bio says "our main inspiration is Bikini Kill" so you turn off the new band because you haven't listened to Bikini Kill in awhile then you decide you're just going to listen riot grrrl music all day.

I'm going to do a small batch of silicon Harmonic Percolator clones based on the Harmonic Jercolator. I'm calling it the Jerk Chicken. Thanks the Wife Lady for the awesome artwork which I turned into water slide decals.

Just finished an Ovtavia/Octavio - if my voice sounds like I've been sitting in the garage for the last 4 hours building guitar pedals and drinking beer, that's because I have... #diyguitarpedals

Finished boxing up my Big Muff #diypedal last night. Had a go at decals for the first time with some artwork my wife made. It sounds great but I finished it too late to really play it. Can't wait!

Just finished this (not so) little circuit for an original Big Muff Pi. I seriously can't wait to box this thing up. I tracked down the parts for an MK1 Tone Bender awhile ago. I may as well throw that thing in the garbage now cuz I have a new favourite... LET THEM EAT PI! #diyguitarpedals

Still waiting for the parts to finish off my RAT build, so I guess I'm prepping something else in the mean time. This is gonna be a Big Muff - again, waiting on transistors, but I can do everything else while I wait. 20 x 17 - that's a big board... #guitarpedals #diyguitarpedals

Getting started on a Proco Rat cuz I can't be bothered doing the enclosure for the last one (simple EQD speaker cranker)... waiting on a couple parts so I'll have to leave it here. Start prepping the next one or do enclosures... hard to decide.

Lucky number 13 for the year. Naga Viper by Catilanbread. Like most loud boxes, it makes loud, but this one makes loud while boosting treble as well.

I've been sitting by the pool drinking a Negroni, and now I'm out of Negroni and don't what to do... if you're reading this, I'm out the back near the pool, bring Negronis.

The cats are back from the cattery! For the rest of the day they shall walk around the house screaming just so everyone knows they're here. As is tradition...

Travel hack: if your cab is taking you to the airport at 10:30. Pack the night before then wake up at 5AM anyway then sit around nervously waiting thinking said cab will be late.

Last day of the holiday today. Heading home soon to see these two fur balls.

This is a DIY guitar pedal that I made awhile ago and probably my favourite build so far - a Vox Tone Bender built to original 60's specs. Also my most expensive build cuz I had to track down new old transistors from Eastern Europe. Worth it and it sounds rad.

Getting into this place. I just made my first feed! If you're into making loud squares (or want to learn more about loud squares), get on the DIY guitar pedal feed bsky.app/profile/did:...

Is there a way to set this up so there's one feed of all the feeds I'm following? Kind of like Reddit. Maybe that's not the point of Bluesky. Still learning...

Alright, I'm here. I think I'll use this place to post pictures of cats and guitar pedals. Watch this space.
