    SOLVED Paragon(esque) board problem.

    I’m talking about on the circuit board- the capacitors, resistors- is there an area of that dealing with the right side?

    SOLVED Paragon(esque) board problem.

    Which side of the circuit board deals with the switch on the right hand side? (When looking down on the pedal..) thanks

    SOLVED Paragon(esque) board problem.

    —— turned out I fried the footswitch PCB. I by-passed the Pcb and wired the footswitch myself. All good now. Hello. I built a Stew Mac Two Kings drive (their version of King Of Tone. I’m having an issue and the board looks like the Paragon drive, so I’m taking a shot here- The left channel...

    1st attempt at OpAmp..

    Thanks-

    1st attempt at OpAmp..

    I actually dig this circuit now its working and I’m doing all the Dan Armstrong circuits. Theees quite a few mods you can do to this circuit.

    1st attempt at OpAmp..

    Changed R1 to 220k and it works.. schematic was wrong 🤷‍♂️

    1st attempt at OpAmp..

    I’ll try this.. thanks. I pulled another schematic and R1 is 200 ohms.

    1st attempt at OpAmp..

    I am learning OpAmps now. My first attempt is a Dan Armstrong Blue Clipper. I really think that I have it wired correct on the breadboard. I’m using an RC4458 IC chip. When I switch it on- I get a beating hum and gated sound. When I switch the power on the chip to 18v- it works fine. I tried a...

    Beatle Juice Fuzz- Bias knob question.

    WELL… I finally got my Beatle Juice Fuzz up and running. I burned an eyelet going from R8 to R7 from removing a misplaced resistor. I ran the leg above the board and tied into the resistor with a dap of solder. Fired it up and it’s working. I just have a question about the Bias knob. When at...

    Beatle Juice Fuzz

    Well— linear gain is not all that necessary with tone control… look at the Rat

    Beatle Juice Fuzz

    Thanks.. and.. I don’t even have 100ks! I was trying to fanagle a way to do it with what I have and I just gave up!

    Beatle Juice Fuzz

    Yes - I bent it up slightly to insulate down the line. Forgot to do that. It should be interesting that I used a b10 by mistake.. I don’t think I will switch it out.. Internet sez B pots are acceptable for tone control 🤷‍♂️

    Beatle Juice Fuzz

    I’m doing a Beatle Juice Fuzz build now- my initial test has nothing when the pedal is engaged. Then I discovered that I put a 22 ohm resistor at R3 instead of a 220k. I got it off the board and I realize Indont have any 220ks so I ordered a few. Would that cause no sound in this case or will I...

    Beatle Juice / Pharmacist Combo

    I would say at first that you should keep all variations- for the people that have built one and not the other already. Maybe down the line just have no boost and the Mocker circuit.. wasn’t the Boost added by Aclam because the amp they were going from for the original build had an inoperable...

    Beatle Juice / Pharmacist Combo

    I’m going to say that I’m the FIRST one to come “And Your Bird Can Sing” and I am asserting intellectual rights! 😂 Here’s a current prototype image… y’all got about one or two weeks until it’s debuted. (My wife did the graphic) and I have the Beatle Juice coming down the pike which will will...
