This project is a chance to build a polemical pedal that has been banned off the markets. It consists of a MOSFET buffer followed by an opamp gain stage and a second MOSFET gain stage. It was released in 2018 by Satchel from the Band Steel Panther in collaboration with TC Electronic, and was called the Pussy Melter. This caused a lot of controversy and stores refused to sell it, so Satchel released the Butthole Burner in 2020, which is the same circuit but with a different enclosure and a different effect on the public. The sound of the pedal is a Marshall/Friedman direction, but a little bit darker. It requires the CA3240 opamp, and using TL072 or similar will not do the trick. The controls are Booty, Dirty, Load, and Sizzle. Load is volume, Booty is bass, Sizzle is a high end, and Dirty is the amount of gain and the moist/gushing toggle. It can go from slight drive to dirty to melting things.
