The Noisy
Cricket is a 1/2 watt guitar amplifier that runs
off a 9 volt battery.
It has controls for on/off, volume, tone, a grit
mod (more crunch at lower gain levels) and a
gain control). It has a 1/4" jack to plug your
guitar into, a 1/4" inch jack for a 4-8 ohm
speaker, and the standard Boss-style AC adaptor.
Just about any speaker will do, but the Noisy
Cricket really likes 1/2x10 or 1/2x12 cabinets.
You can run the Noisy Cricket
off a 9 volt battery, or an AC adaptor. The AC
adaptor can be up to 12vDC. At 12 volts, the amp
puts out about .8 watts and offers a bit more
clean headroom. Note: this is an amplifier, not
a pedal. Don't plug it into another amplifier.
Plug it into a speaker.

Here is the current batch of
nine production Noisy Crickets:
This batch is special because
each one is housed in an enclosure from
Swankbox.
| Note that the burst
boxes do not have a sticker on the
top--no point in hiding the cool
swankness with a sticker. Instead,
there is one on the bottom--it looks
like this: |

Many Thanks to
Adam at Swankbox for sending me
these fantastic enclosures. runoffgroove.com for their
Little Gem and Ruby amps. Without their designs,
I probably wouldn't have been able to end up
with the Noisy Cricket. Also super props to JD
Sleep at GeneralGuitarGadgets.com for the
awesome build articles for the Ruby amp and the
PCBS. All my small amps to date have been built
using JD's boards and he does very nice work. All the folks at DIYStompboxes for their advice and ideas. The
HCEF circus of cool dudes for their compliments,
humor, naked pictures of their moms (ok, maybe
not that). A few local guys who wanted to by
one!
