Has been since the 50’s too. They offered hardtail or tremolo as options. No cup holders, though…

Ain’t nothing special. But I’ll grab a shot soon. Never say I don’t spoil you…

Same thing happened to me, except my ‘red strat’ is a Les Paul. Jazzmaster is pretty much all I play anymore.

I was doing a bit of research, and apparently there were a few different versions of the D*A*M 1966. The earliest is the version the PCB was based on. There was another that switch the two different output caps for different resistors across the output pot. I believe there was a third version as...

For most of my guitar playing career, I have always loved the Italian made 1966 Vox ToneBender. I only realized that recently, however. Robby Krieger's fuzz tones are some of my favorite fuzz tones ever. I always assumed what I read was true: that he played a Maestro, a MK II ToneBender when in...

In the sake of helping out, I just built a Box 66...(I was actually planning on building one today all along). The switch on mine doesn't do much either. In Super Bee mode, its a little thicker...fatter. In 66 mode, is a tad thinner. That's about it. I imagine changing C3 and C7 (to like 2n2 and...

That would help. Is the tone more bassy or is it thinner and more trebly? The former is the Super Bee, and the latter the ToneBender…

87 hfe.

Is the tone as is the ‘66 tone or the Super Bee tone?…

It fit on mine. I’m upgrading to the TC-1, though. However, the TaeBao has been working pretty well…just no leakage.

What is the circuit, if I may ask?

Yes. I am, however, unfamiliar with that I/o pcb, so I may be mistaken. I don’t see how it is grounded. Anyway, looking at it, without any other info, I imagine “in and out” would go to the in and out of the circuit, via the footswitch. In to the left, out on the right.

Should the “in and out” pads go to the footswitch? You have them going to the ground pads on the pcb.

You know, that protoboard would be a lot easier to manage than my mini-protoboard and the 13 small-sized breadboards I end up using…

Output is 2n2, input caps are 1n (one goes to ground). I’ve put larger caps in the output, but then I lose all control with the tone control. I did alter C1 (to ground) but didn’t spend enough time with it to remember what happened. I’ll try again tomorrow.
