ebs just recently released this billy sheehan signature overdrive pedal. mainly a combination of overdrive with compressor with blend so the balance of clean and processed signal can be tweaked on the fly.

a frient of mine jack showed me this exercise sometimes before and i found it very useful and fun to practice anywhere.
this is an exercise that soul and rnb people do to tighten their rhythm and absolutely useful for doing shots in a band setup.
it's basically counting 1e+a 2 e+a 3 e+a 4 e+a, and hit on the 1 on the 1, e on the 2, + on the 3 and a on the 4. try it with a metronome.

first attempt on assembling a stomp box. and this is absolutely fun.
this is the tremolo kit from b.y.o.c. (build your own clone),
http://www.buildyourownclone.com/tremolo.html
based on ea (electronics austrailia) tremolo. very mild sounding tremolo, even at extreme setting. true bypass (w/ 3pdt switch). works well for both guitar and bass.
built time for a noob like me was around 2 hours, the building guide is very well explained and straight forward. it's not a very complicated kit, total amount of components are less than 30. lots of fun building and very rewarding, especially the pedal works on the first attempt. i'm not very experienced with soldering iron.
