Sonic Boom (p2p) – AcidFuzz
Based on the Vox Starstream/Ultrasonic/Delta on board effects. This is the original style Sonic Boom point-to-point build. Same exact circuit and sound as the PCB version, but this circuit is built entirely point-to-point rather than on a printed circuit board. This is the original version used by Brian Jonestown M

I know, everybody and their grandmother makes a booster based on the Dallas Rangemaster. Probably because they just sound good. They’re a classic staple. An “oldie, but a goodie”. This is our version, the Yellow Sunshine. It’s the classic Dallas Rangemaster germanium treble boost circuit with an optional full range bo

We've been building a highly modified version of this circuit into our Sonic Boom multi-effects pedals for years and have received about a million requests for a stand alone repeater pedal. We wanted to make sure we offered the best repeater pedal available, so we listened to all your requests before we got down to it. Our REPEATER is the answer to complaints we've received about other Vox Repeat Percussion clones: "There's no expression pedal jack." Check. You can use our repeater with any 100K expression pedal or volume pedal to control the LFO rate hands free. "The (product name omitted) ticks very loudly, so much I can't use it." Check. Our REPEATER has the least LFO background noise and lowest signal to noise ratio of any on the market. The Repeater oscillator is also powered off when bypassed so there is no chance of ticking when bypassed. "The (product name omitted) isn't loud enough, it's not even unity gain." Check. Ours is not only the lowest noise, but it is also the HIGHEST OUTPUT VOLUME, almost twice unity gain! If you want to kick this on after you say "this chord is dedicated to you..." and then make the whole room vibrate, well... you can. "It doesn't go slow enough." Check. Our repeater offers the slowest LFO rate so you can really get creepy. "It doesn't sound like the original Vox Repeater in my guitar". Our REPEATER uses the same 2N2646 uni-junction transistor as the original Vox circuit which produces the same sawtooth wave and sound. We use higher quality low noise transistors to handle the signal so your tone remains pure. "The "product name omitted" thins out the sound too much. Check. With our REPEATER what you put in is what you get out, only REPEATED! SHIPS IN 1-2 WEEKS*Tip: If you turn the "Depth" control down all the way the REPEATER also becomes an outstanding booster! Unlike many other time based effects, the REPEATER's LFO oscillator is unpowered in bypass, eliminating any possibility of inducing noise into your signal chain.

This is the original version used by Brian Jonestown Massacre, Black Angels, etc... Features: Frequency selective booster with both range and dedicated volume controls. Distortion/Fuzz with controls for fuzz, volume, and bias. Additional routing control for switching between booster first or fuzz first. Repeater effect with individual controls for rate, depth cut, and volume. Cut control allows you to compensate for various input, amplitude‘s and impedances. Additional switches for repeater tone voicing and speed mode. LED indicator that flashes in time with the rate of the repeater effect, plus each effect has it's own status led, yellow for booster, red for distortion, and blue for repeater. Effects loop so you can pretty much use any other effects in any order you want. Expression pedal jack for hands free control repeater rate/speed. Foot switch jack for hands free remote switching between repeater "Hi/Lo" modes. *Foot switch not included. You can add one to your order below or if you already have this pedal and only need the switch you can find it here: http://acidfuzz.com/foot-switch-for-sonic-boom-repeater-hilo-modes 100% true bypass wiring. 9V power jack.

Probably because they just sound good. They’re a classic staple. An “oldie, but a goodie”. This is our version, the Yellow Sunshine. It’s the classic Dallas Rangemaster germanium treble boost circuit with an optional full range boost and tone control, so you can dial in the sweet spot for your rig and/or place in the mix. Classic rock in a box. From Blues Breakers to Black Sabbath, this and a nice tube amp is how it's done. CONTROLS AND FEATURES: NOS Vintage Germanium Transistor: (choose your own transistor option) Standard Germanium. These are always vintage NOS vintage PNP (positive ground) transistors. Always selected for high gain and extremely low leakage/low noise. Texas Instruments OC44. These are high quality NOS metal can gold lead OC44's. Very close to the Mullard OC44, slightly less low end, & higher curve in upper mids & highs. Mullard OC44/CV7003. These are black glass either stamped "OC44" or "CV7003". CV7003 is the military spec. Mullard OC44. CV7003's are OC44's selected at the factory for higher gain and lower leakage for the military and are arguably the best quality Mullard OC44. Mullard OC43. ~Identical to Mullard OC44. Mullard/Phlips OC141. These are NPN (negative ground) black glass. Excellent gain and extremely low leakage and noise. If you want your Yellow Sunshine to be negative ground like most other modern pedals this is the transistor option you want. Switchable “Color” and “Brite” modes. “Brite” is the classic 60's Dallas Rangemaster treble boost circuit. Switching to “Color” mode gives you a full range booster, allowing you to blend the exact shade of tones you need. I love the original Rangemasters, but they’re just too bright for many rigs. I also love the darker sounding Iommi/Sabbath style modded versions, but I don’t like how they color the top end and don’t allow you the get the same bright glassy “present” Rangemaaster tone. So, the Yellow Sunshine does both. “Color” Use this to blend tones from bright to a full range boost, and trim the extreme highs. You can basically use this to pick whatever tone color best suits your palate. “Boost” Use this to set the boost volume to taste, anywhere from jangly clean boost to overdriven. (There is also an internal bias trimmer if you would like to adjust bias to taste. These boosters come pre-set from us for ~ 6.7V @ room temperature (~70F). Silent Switching Unlike all other Dallas Rangemaster based boosters, the Yellow Sunshine has completely noiseless switching with no "pop" for a seamless audio transition when switching the pedal on and off. Switch "POP" has been a frequent subject of complaint for many players who use a Rangemaster type booster. Some manufacturers downplay or ignore the issue. Some say "you have to turn it on and off once before using it." Some add "pulldown" resistors which do nothing to remedy the issue. Some refuse to add an LED, claiming there is no way to add an LED without popping. Some even state "there is circuitry that will make the pop completely go away but it compromises the sound of this circuit which is a very raw circuit that relies on the interaction between it and your guitar and amp to do its magic." That's a bunch of wacky bull$hit. Every Yellow Sunshine booster comes standard with an LED status indicator and "no-pop" true bypass mechanical switching. The Yellow Sunshine LED and it's switching are completely isolated from the audio circuit and have zero effect on it's tone. All yellow sunshines come loaded with vintage Mullard/Philips “Tropical Fish” input and output coupling capacitors, high quality electrolytic capacitors, status LED indicator, 9V DC power jack, and noiseless true bypass switching. Transistor Options: Positive Ground or Negative Ground??? Our "standard germanium", "Texas Instruments OC44", and "Mullard OC44/CV7003" transistor options are all wired POSITIVE GROUND and CAN NOT BE DAISY-CHAINED from one power supply with modern negative ground pedals! You must power with one dedicated 9V, use an isolated supply like Voodoo Labs, or just use a battery. If you want your Yellow Sunshine to come wired NEGATIVE GROUND so you can daisy chain power it with other modern pedals, you must choose the "Philips OC141" transistor option. Typically ships within 7-10 days. Customer Feedback: "I've tried several, and yours in the only Rangemaster that has the Mullard OC44 and doesn't POP when you turn it on." "Perfect" "The "Color" control is amazing."

Your Diagnosis
Before revealing the machine’s verdict, predict the BS score for each signal. Higher = more BS (more fluff, less verifiable substance). Drag each slider, then submit to compare your judgment against the engine.
Stuck? Reveal the heuristic lens — how the deterministic page-auditor reads each signal (no AI, pure pattern rules)
These are the structural rules a local, deterministic auditor applies — the same lens you can use to judge each signal. They describe what to look for, not this company’s result.
Classify each sentence as substantive or hollow. Grounding markers — numbers, currencies, dates, technical units, named entities — outweigh marketing adjectives. When fluff sits right next to hard evidence, the fluff is forgiven.
Pull the main entities out of the H1, then check whether they actually recur through the body. A page that announces one thing and then talks about another drifts. Headings with no real sentences underneath read as pseudo-substance.
Count trust words (review, testimonial, rating, verified) against real outbound proof links (Google, Trustpilot, Clutch, G2, Yelp). Lots of trust language with zero verification links is trust theatre. Unlinked logo galleries count against it.
Look at how much sentence length varies. Natural writing varies its rhythm; templated or mass-produced copy is statistically uniform. Very low variation reads as commodity content — unless unique named entities break the pattern.
Inspect the JSON-LD. Is there an Organization or Person schema, and does it carry sameAs links to real external profiles (LinkedIn, socials)? Missing schema or no identity declaration signals an anonymous entity.
Want to apply this lens yourself? The free BS Indicator Chrome extension runs these heuristic checks live on any page. Bear in mind it is a single-page, deterministic tool — it relies only on pattern rules for the page in front of it and does not perform the cross-page semantic correlation this audit uses, so its readout is a starting lens, not the full verdict.
Based on 1884 businesses audited.
Acid Fuzz has 17.5 points less BS than the average for Arts, Culture & Entertainment.
Arts, Culture & Entertainment BS: Acid Fuzz (acidfuzz.com)
Acid Fuzz is a masterclass in forensic technical communication that treats the buyer as a peer rather than a target. Its BS score is driven entirely by missing metadata and structured data rather than any presence of marketing fluff.
Implement JSON-LD Product and Organization schema to formalize brand authority. Create a ‘Craft’ or ‘Builder’ page that provides a digital footprint for the lead technician using Person schema. Replace the static ‘Customer Feedback’ text with linked third-party reviews from reputable gear forums or verified platforms. Add outbound links to video demonstrations for each product to provide external visual proof of technical claims.
The site is classified under Arts, Culture & Entertainment, specifically within the niche of boutique musical instrument manufacturing. It heavily rejects the generic jargon of the ‘Arts’ industry dictionary in favor of specialized electronics and audio engineering terminology.
“The score of 15 is driven almost exclusively by the Identity and Authority pillar (10 points) due to the total absence of structured data and named person schema. Information density and semantic coherence are near perfect, reflecting a site that prioritizes substance over signal.”
