Swedish Chainsaw

by Brendan Pearce July 29, 2021

I built a Swedish Chainsaw HM-2 clone using a pcb from DIY Guitar Pedals.

Always nice to take a little time to build something for myself instead of making orders. It turned out really well and I love how it sounds. Didn't take long to dial in a killer metal tone and start ripping out Morbid Angel riffs (Day Of Suffering - Hell Yes !!!). Might play with a few different op-amps and see if I like the changes, but it absolutely kicks arse as a stock build.

Here's a photo of my brutal death metal beast. My workshop lights make it look a bit more orange than it actually is. Gender norms and toxic masculinity can get fucked.

This is strictly a one off, one of a kind and I'm not making any more. Sorry.
