Beavis Audio Four knob rat Mkii

Shazbat66
A rat with all the options in one including the "reutz" mod. I'd love to build this as a keeper. It was requested previously. It was mentioned it wasn't getting much attention in a period when you were pumping them out.
Perhaps would get more now as an added project I have a mooer black secret on my board for my rat at the moment and often switch between stock/ turbo setting. It really is a great little recreation of the original and super compact. However, I want to replace all my purchased pedals with self-made pedals and I use the RAT enough that I'd be happy with it in a 1590bb with top jacks especially if I could have all the options this pedal offers. I've managed to score some original LM308's and have all the other bits except the mosfets     ( Tayda has them). Beavis have a pcb and layout but I have nothing but bad luck trying to make usable circuit boards at home. I've had successes but have ended up using your layouts on vero a few times after circuit board failures with never a problem. Hence my request. Hey , I see you're not busy now and I'm not sure if you're still doing the odd circuit. I'll keep my eyes open. I visit here a lot and honestly can't thank you guys enough for what you've done here for everyone.
Anyways heres the link   http://beavisaudio.com/projects/fkr/History.htm. You'll make an 80's child very happy.  Ps  LM308s available in short stock still at Jaycars, New Zealand for any kiwis interested.

There's a vero layout for the Beavis Audio FKR by Harald Sabro at sabrotone.com
Uses a rotary switch rather than toggles for the various clipping options.

Thanks a lot mate. Believe it or not I decided to spend some time refining my pcb making skills with some time testing iron trials and came up with some spot on boards printed from the beavis site. I just ordered some 5t rotary switches with the idea of tying the daughter board to it to eliminate the number of switches up top.
So its exactly what i was looking for. ..and I hadn't looked at sabrotone til now... Like I need even more choices LoL  Cheers again
