Zorro Devices #1 - Prickly Pear

Zorro Devices serial number 001: THE PRICKLY PEAR. Here's my first pedal build.

Big Muffs have totally captivated me. I've been obsessed with FUZZ ever since I worked on a couple of civil war Russian Sovtek Big Muffs. Way cool - and hella pricey on Evil-Bay.

I decided to purchase and build a clone kit. The BYOC Large Beaver is widely reviewed as a reasonably priced Muff clone.

Of course, I made some minor changes to the circuit and put it in a copper colored housing purchased from Pedal Parts Plus.

The Prickly Pear is the name of this box. Named after the cactus with edible fruit.
