Those electros look drunk

Yes, they all link together. Some designers throw their signals to ground and others to Vref (or V Bias in this case). There is a voltage divider cutting the voltage in half along with a filtering cap before going into opamp buffer configuration.

Your first step is visual inspection. Do any resistors/caps look fried? Electros don't last forever. Heck, maybe the button to engage the effect is fried. Are there secure connections going to/from the effect? Next step IMO would be to confirm all IC are getting proper power just in the chorus...

Wait. At least an hour. Also, it should be warm out.

I've also used the Rustoleum gold. The key for me was to do very light, quick coats. Time consuming, but worth it!

Circuit boards for circuit building blocks? A great idea for the budding breadboarder!

Don't question the Wizard!!!!

You're clearly running out of knobs to complete a whole set.

Skoal, Grizzly, Cougar. Whatever is at your local gas station.

Go buy a can of Skoal instead. At least you know its metal.

I think I used some fake 1n34As that were really shottkys. Only 1 switch setting had a small volume drop for me. Nor worse or better clipping. Just…different.

This circuit is definitely a sleeper around here since there aren't a lot of build reports on it. Or I just don't know how to use the search function on here :ROFLMAO: This is the Disarray Distortion (Suhr Riot). If you want a super high gain, gnarly Marshall tone then look no further. This...

Anybody try building a standalone reverb tank for a build? My amps don't have built in reverb.

Honestly, im a little shocked. I thought there’d be more DIY ones from you guys. I guess the gold standard is the spring tame in many of our amps, huh? Silver standard being a nice factory pedal.

I wanna get a sense of what people like for reverb out there. As a bedroom/basement player it one of my "always on" effects, though I do tweak the knobs depending on what I'm playing. I would like to explore more DIY options out there for some winter projects for myself. My reverb is Belton...
