MusicPCB Gristleizer.

The Gristleizer is an electronic circuit that was first developed by then-15-year-old Roy Gwinn in the 1970s. The effect was made public by Roy in an article called "Guitar Effects Pedal" in a British magazine called Practical Electronics. Roy even comments about all this and that he was paid by Practical Electronics for the article. What really caused the Gristleizer to become named "Gristleizer" and for the effect to have worldwide recognition was Chris Carter and his electronic/industrial band Throbbing Gristle. Chris also took what was previously a set Bias control and brought it forward to the control panel to give us the Gristleizer as we know it today. Roy Gwinn didn't come to know about the ecosystem that had developed around the Gristleizer until around 2007.


Thermionic Studios has one(1) MusicPCB Gristleizer PCB. When we finish assembling it into a pedal, it will be available for rental.

While others also offer printed circuit boards for you to build your own Gristleizer, as is obvious now, ours came from MusicPCB, found here:

Pedal Manual

Phase Inversion: Yes/No

Schematic

Artists

We are currently unaware of any artists actively using the pedal now, or who have in the past.
