Oh no, I did not mean any offense (and I don't really think that's how you took it). I'm ALL FOR cloning the graphics, right down to the colors and fonts. And I totally agree that these are OURS for personal use and have no qualms about it. It's just an OCD thing for me, personally, about using...

Looks great, but my only recommendation is to remove the 'BF-2', as that is a corporate model number. Granted, it's long out of production, but the originals are still on the used market. Of course, you can do what you want - I'm not bashing or anything. I know it's nit-picky. I already have a...

I have come to SWEAR by 1S1588 diodes in any circuit that typically uses 1N914/4148s for clipping. I'm currently using them in my DS-1 builds, and going to put them in my Shredmaster clone, whenever that gets built. They have a little higher headroom and just clip a...

Did a little more digging, and there's a recent vid w/Doug West, going over the controls on the IIC+ reissue. I'm going with dual 'Gain' knobs - sorry for the additional thread.

I'm revisiting the Electrictabs Boogeyman (Mesa Mark II emu) pedal, but with additional mods/options onboard. It has a Gain and Volume control (in addition to a Master Vol). My question is: if I wanted a 2nd drive control to put on a footswitch (i.e. like having two gain level options), would...

Mine is still in a box somewhere, waiting to be finished. Board is populated, just procrastinating. How's it sound?

I've loved the JCM800 pedal demos I've heard, but want to get my hands on the 1959 first.

Just inquiring on the update/status/availability of the Seek-Wah and Seek-Trem boards. I've been on a trem/slicer kick lately and would love to add these to my lineup.

Think I found them at Banzai: https://www.banzaimusic.com/dome-knob-tz-ot-125-chrome.html

I'm doing a fresh build of my Dr. Boogey, and looking for a chrome domed-type knob, but with an indicator. The ones on the NUX Recto look perfect, but those are almost certainly fabbed for NUX. I saw some at Tayda, but they are only for pots with knurled posts. Any ideas?

Had one as well, been well over 10yrs. My one and only complaint was that the rate came on too fast too quickly. Never considered modding the one I had, but looking at the DEFX parts list, might be worth trying a 25K-A rate pot (vs the stock 50K-A). And yes. Crap. I didn't need to know this...

Just curious if anyone knows (yet) if the JCM800 and 1959 (Marshall pedals) have the same architecure, just different part values? Or are they completely different circuits? Marshall put all of these in nearly identical configs (same pedal enclosures, all have four knobs), so I'm wondering if...

'doc' has the letters 'OCD'. Coincidence? ..............................I think not
