The Jeds Peds Doomscroller is a chorus pedal sold by the UK maker as a DIY kit. Jeds Peds describes it as "a mad chorus pedal with as many modulation possibilities as there are fake news stories online," and says it "covers subtle, shimmery chorus sounds, to wobbly, seasick, warbly pitch-bent detuning that rocks the boat."1 For players browsing the wider field, it sits among other chorus pedals, and Jeds Peds notes that the kit "compares to the EQD Sea Machine," offered as a comparison only and not an endorsement.1
What you get and what it takes to build
The Doomscroller is sold in several kit levels, so the amount of building you take on is up to you1:
- PCB Only: just the plain PCB
- PCB & Components
- PCB & Components and off board parts
- Full Kit
- Full Kit & Drilling
- JP-Pro Kit
- Pre Built Kit1
The board is spaced for PCB mounted toggles and pots, and you will need 6 knobs for the kit; Jeds Peds suggests skinny sized knobs.1 The finished circuit fits in one of Jeds Peds' JP125B cases.1
The listed price is £59.00 GBP as stated by the maker; it is not a US dollar figure.
If you like the Jeds Peds approach to modulation, the maker also builds the Jeds Peds Julian, and the Doomscroller's wobblier territory overlaps with what vibrato pedals and flanger pedals do to a signal1.
