Build your own multi-function stomp box / tambourine / cajon

If you are a musician, you might consider making your own stompbox. They are very easy to make with whatever tools and wood you can find. Assembling the electrical parts is a snap and they only cost a few dollars. I had fun jazzing up my version with tambourine cymbals and a snare, but just a simple box works great.
What you will need is a Piezo Transducer (an electronic pickup). There are various types available in many places such as Amazon.com.
You might want to look around for a bass pickup, which will give you a much deeper sound.
And you will need a 1/4" phone jack to hook the box to an amplifier.
For a little more info on my stomp box, watch this follow-up video on my Vlog channel:

A plastic cover insted of wood might work. But break probably. I also found paintings work, whether it is the canvas or the stiff material covered with canvas. Anyway the lightest gear possible if you are busking, is desirable. Great upload thx!

This is a really great project. The bamboo panels look quite nice for this, too. As for the biscuits, it actually would have been a great idea to use them for corner joints, because with a mitre joint, you have a weak glue surface. Basically, they're very useful for 90 degree corners, shelves (like in a bookcase), face frames, mitered corners (even door frames and picture frames if they're wide enough), etc.

@SteveRamsey
@SteveRamsey 12 лет назад
You just have to play with it. If the snare presses too tightly against the tapa, it won't do anything. If it's too loose, it won't make a nice snappy sound.

I want to make note that using a Piezo pick-up directly can be fairly hot. i have done this using 2-3 different sized Piezo disks. In testing with several different boxes small wooden jewellery box, plastic DIY electronics hobby box, cookie tin. pick-up was to hot and caused feedback. plus piezo pick-ups don't have much bottom/low end. I found putting them through a bass guitar preamp gives them more bottom end. how was your testing, did you improve the pickup in any way.

the placement of the piezo(s) and even the type and amount of glue used have quite an inpact on the sound. it's worth experimenting a bit! the face sounds different than the sides, and the corners from the middle. the elasticity of hot glue douple sided tapes absorbs more high frequencies, than CA or epoxy, and backing the piezo with a rubber foot or some plumbers putty increases the bassy thud - the heavier the backing, the thicker. happy tinkering!

Hey Steve, what are the exact dimensions you used? I've been looking at so many different stomp boxes and I keep coming back to this one. Based on the sound put out by my computer speaker it seems as though this box sounds pretty good.
