"Blackbeard"
Sanford & Sonny Bluebeard Clone in a 125B!

Since The Sanford and Sonny Bluebeard pedals are nearly impossible to find these days, I used to have one so I recently decided to build a clone of one for myself. Some of them were built by JD Sleep of General Guitar Gadgets. After carefully studying the original, I found out that the one posted on the GGG web schematic is actually NOT 100% correct. The Bluebeard was based on a 1973 Ram's head muff with a few modifications that are not included in the GGG schematic, including the later versions with the tone bypass switch. I made those modifications to reproduce the Sanford and Sonny Bluebeard pedal, only in a smaller enclosure and I'm calling my version the "Blackbeard".
I actually sold one to Sanford and Sonny (the large box 1590BB version). By popular demand, I decided to offer a couple more of these 125B versions for sale.

This newest version comes in a blackfaced 125B with a relayed true bypass and all top jacks (Lumberg).
