Oh man, I just love that HM2 sound that really stands out at the end of the song 🤘🇸🇪

Depending on the intro sanple I have to record and how long the solo will actually be, the song is about 3:30ish. Little teaser anyone?

HM2 into distorted amp (crunch) > total mayhem!!!! 💥 🤯
Okay, I'm gonna stop bothering you after this... eventually 🤪

I could do this all day long... 🤪 🇸🇪
Does anyone recognize this song?

This will be slightly #geeky, and probably only of interest to #electronics hobbyists and #guitar players. I happen to sit in the intersection of that particular #Venn diagram.
When I was a teenager, having only been playing guitar for a few years, I owned a guitar #effects pedal that went on to become legendary - the Boss HM-2 "Heavy Metal" #pedal. Its sound is still ubiquitous in metal.
I don't have it any more. I think I traded it for an analog chorus, which was a seriously expensive pedal back then. Although I have other #distortion effects, I've missed it a lot over the years.
Well, lots of hobbyists build their own effects. And the circuit schematics for many effects, particularly the classics, are available online. So like many others, I decided to build my own HM-2.
This image is the schematic for the #HM2. It's not the most complicated pedal, but it's a league above something like an Ibanez Tube Screamer. As far as active devices go, it's got 6 #opamps and 10 #transistors of various types, along with a bunch of diodes for multiple types and stages of clipping, and the usual jumble of capacitors and resistors. Oh, and four potentiometers.
