This simple distortion box creates a very rugged, raw sound.
To make it you need: 2 amplifiers, a guitar, 1/8th to 1/4th adapter, a shoe box, headphones*** and a microphone
***These need to be headphones you won't miss, I broke my pair of skullcandies because I turned the volume too high on my bass. Use cheap ones and don't turn the instrument up too loudly.

A while back i found a site that had schematics for a LOT of amps and pedals. (commercial versions Fender DOD, Boss, etc) A google search should pop up something.

understand it being easy and cheap, providing you have a mic ready at hand, but wouldnt it be eaiser and better in the long run to buy an effects pedal?

Yeah I agree with you, this is not an "All the time" effect. It's very gritty and is just for when you want a totally distorted, raw sound. This isn't gonna replace a distortion pedal. But it's fun to play with.
