Boss HM-2 Heavy Metal

[farfar]

I really hope to see a layout of this one! It's considered 'rare' because a whole generation now craves the oldschool sound. Crazy prices for an MIJ on eBay.

The original Boss schematic looks a little crazy

But i found some 'boiled down' schematics here and here

User 'Freppo' also did a great job finding modern substitutes for some of the outdated parts. He made a board layout which can be seen here.

To be honest, i'm not sure if the board layout reflects all the changes that is discussed in the thread. Also i hope that the board could maybe be a little smaller.

I actually own a MIJ one ($40 in Tokyo) that is pretty much mint. If you need anything for this build I will try my best to help.

Cheers
