Hi i have recently built an amp based on the lm 386 chip. I love the sound and I am super happy with the build. However I want to build another amp with a bit more punch and I would like to build in some effects too. like gain control or tremolo. etc. any ideas for chip choice and how to incorporate the effects. I would also prefer to build it from scratch as that is almost half the fun :) So I don't want to just buy a kit. Thanks for any ideas. :)

This looks easy...
Get a three way toggle switch... On/Off with bypass
Yep, I make those. Sounds awesome.
Tilden has a good get based preamp circuit. Let me know if you can't find it...
Look at runoffgroove.com for info on circuits. There are a few amp circuits there that use the LM386 like the Ruby, Little Gem, along with pedals/effects.
Also look at beavisaudio.com and see the Noisy Cricket amp circuit.
