PT-80 Delay

Posted on August 17th, 2006

This is my PT-80 delay the information for this build can be found on generalguitargadgets.com.

I used acid graphics as tutorial for etching, this was my first ever etch and worked well, one tip place the box (or PCB board) onto a hard surface instead of a soft ironing board.

This is a short video I made of the PT-80 delay being used, it gives an idea of the sound capable of this pedal.
