who to go to for a clone?

[JBTucci]

Need some help. I just rediscovered my old Seamoon Funk Machine (v2) and am thinking of getting it cloned. It's funky like the Mutrons and also does a weird octave down thing (they claim 2). It appears to be a cheap and simple circuit but the schematic I found online seems to have some errors - I believe it was designed by Craig Anderton. I'm not a DIY guy and don't know if the parts are readily available? I just want a modern version - smallest box possible, true bypass w/ led, standard 9v jack, possibly a blend? and maybe even a nice graphic or etch job (plain box would be fine too). I'd like to send it to one of 'Our' great builders Who do you think would be into this? Iron Ether, Baddy 1 Shoe, Fuzzrocious, Wren & Cuff, etc.?

IIRC, the circuit is somewhat simple but at least some of the parts are no longer made.

I'm not able to do custom work anymore, but it shouldn't be very difficult for custom builders who know their stuff.

[I haven't played through one of these or even heard one, just looking at the info available online. ]

There's nothing unobtainable inside there. I doubt the transistor is finicky. The usual NPN suspects should do. The only tricky thing, parts-wise, is that this kind of circuit requires a specific type of opamp to do its thing. The common modern opamps will not work, but fortunately the ones needed are still plentiful.

Don't know if you've tried it already, but I believe the EHX Doctor Q might be just about the same circuit. And it's already in a nice small box with LED and true bypass.

just found some interesting bass mods - including a blend! for the Dr. Quack. would be cool to a/b this with the funk machine
