Hey y’all! Just finished up this pedal and while it sounds great, when it’s engaged, the volume isn’t at unity; even with the pre and post maxed out. Is that normal? I know somebody on here said to change out R11 for 120K. Is that all that’s needed? Just wanted to see if there’s any other values...
Dang! Such a simple mistake that could’ve been avoided if I hadn’t placed my trust in a google search 😂 are there any replacements off the top of your head that would work? I couldn’t find the LM741
Hey y’all! I’m having a difficulty passing signal when the pedal is engaged. Signal passes in bypass, but engaged: nothing. Initially I had both diodes facing the same direction as is marked on the board, but I flipped the one on the bottom and still no signal. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Can anyone confirm from left-right what transistor pin outs are correct? I’m under the impression that it’s Emitter, Base, and Collector. I started with a GT404B from small bear and couldn’t get that to work. Followed by an NTE103A which is a direct replacement for the AC176. All of those...
Betty Wont is Correct, this is a standard 9v Boss type power supply, or 9v battery if you need one.
Oh shit! Totally right, I read that totally wrong! Either way it isn’t working and I’m sure I have the pinout correct. Might need some additional troubleshooting for sure
I’m giving it 9V. But according to the ac176 transistor data sheet, it needs 32V minimum on the base collector and I’m only getting around 17V. Scratching my head on this one 😬
Hey y’all! Still having trouble with my Scythe Fuzz. I’m only getting 17.4V to the collector of the transistor pinout. Is this normal? I looked at the datasheet and it’s saying it’s a 32V minimum collector base voltage to get it going. In that case, is this circuit not working as it should? I...
Hey y’all! First time building the War Scythe. The octave and the hoof side work just fine but I’m having trouble with the bender side.
the signal is incredibly weak when engaged, way less than unity. I got the GT404B from smallbear.
I know the pin outs are different and I may be messing that...
