also heres a circuit diagram for something similar to the smokey amp.

tho i dont think it can fit into those mint tin cases, can it?

and yea yea, i know its not gonna sound good.
passable cleans, or even just a mild distortion is good enough.
just something cheap that you can bring around and play your guitar thru headphones with, or even drive some small speaker.

its possible.
i have 2 ppl who's offered to do it, one here and one in SG.

the PCB is not the prob.
its trying to make it small enough to fit in two 3/4" jacks AND a 9V battery.

oops, yea 1/4".
but guess you dont like eclipse mints

the measurement for the eclipse mint case is 2x3.8x7.5 cm.

see, thats why ppl spend more time on it

fuzz effect can be done using 9V and also stuck in a ciggy box.

lol

you didnt ask, and actually i did post it awhile back.
i also have a similar circuit diagram for it somewhere.

nm, i'll stick with my fender mini twin.
maybe i might get the marshall ms-4 also
