Abstract/Summary

The Wild Stallion Distortion Pedal project encompasses the research, design, implementation, PCB layout, and packaging of a distortion effect pedal for the electric guitar. This project aims to use analog circuitry in order to replicate the effect of vintage tube amplifiers to create a distortion effect. The procedure includes research, design, simulations, and prototype testing in order to produce a quality distortion effect built as a stomp pedal for the electric guitar.
