...great ideas guys --- part of the Folk Forum idea was a place that ANYONE could use and get projects going .....
There are DIY projects all over the place and you dont need My or Bjorns ok or input to get them going.....

A folk Reverb would be a great thing - you could group research it and group design it --- somebody start a thread in that forum and decide what you want it to do and then research it and make it happen :thumbup: You never know who will show up to help along the way :wink:

I really don't think you go wrong with any Folk Drive and I would love to get into a Folk Tremolo. A Folk Drive would be easier to play around with and mod/alter/experiment, especially for those of us who ever never really gotten into that end of the pool with pedal building. A delay circuit is really, really involved and they can be a pain to get to work right. Folk Fuzz is classic but has been done already (several times?). The Model G seems to be the most requested Folk?BJFe/Bearfoot design. I know that the parts were prohibitively expensive but also know that Bjorn works around sounds and feels of pedals more than what parts works for what. Could there be a similar circuit using more readily available parts to build a Folk G? I guess I just don't know enough to say, I'm just thinking out loud.

I think your involvement would be invaluable Donner! How else would we get some bitchin' DonnerBoxes to hold the guts together? Well, that and your experience with this kind of thing.
