Great graphic for your build, diggin' the overall aesthetic.

That looks really good. One of those rare occasions that the knob-colour matches the enclosure-colour really well. Be sure to post your own build report when the transformer comes in.

My desolder game changed greatly when I went from a smaller (but good, metal) solder-sucker to one that has huge volume (cheap plastic model, but it Hoovers harder than... ... an Electroluxe Vacuum). Vacuums and solder-pumps — probably the only two things in the world you'd want them to...

Hard to tell with this one, looks extremely realistic. I'm going to say photochopped, because of the leading edges of the wrap-around sides on either side of the footswitch... At any rate... Seems almost a thankless job you've given yourself, to mockup all the releases. Thanks for showing off...

I should've included in my previous post that at one point, my blue-tack use caused build problems which is why I switched back to exclusively tape for a while. Blue-tack melts and will get into the sockets and under components when it gets heated, but there are some things it does better than...

Interesting. The OP shows the two examples clumped together and hard to read, but when I quoted the OP it showed in the quote... The examples are well-spaced apart, but... revert back to clumped together when I post the reply. A quirk of the forum software. For anyone not aware, you can make...

I use both, well actually GREEN painter's tape, not blue. The BlueTack is now more of a grey-blue. Which I choose to use depends on what I'm doing, what's needed, what mood I'm in, what stars are in alignment, the phase of the moon/how high the tide is... Doesn't matter what I do though, or...

I knew it! Will's moving down to 1590LB-size enclosures.

Hot damn that turned out great. Lining it up to keep the lines straight must've been a biatch-supremo, but it's PERFECT! 🤯 So what's next, needle-point control-labels?

My Friend and I were playing around with his T&T Varitone pedal last night and the switch that swaps in and out the choke (transformer) definitely made a difference. It's a bare-bones circuit. Just caps on a switch through the transformer (or not) and a pot to control how much signal gets bled...

The Lemon: No build doc. The Lemonade: Practicing your tracing skills Looking at the schematic it's basically 3 EHX Muff input stages in series, each using a different type transistor, with a muff tone stack. Send me the PCB and I'll send it back with the correct refdes (well, correct to...

IIRC, it's been posted somewhere on the forum. Probably needs updating anyway.

Bending component leads at "perfect" angles of the dangles and best-bent degrees, as in 90º. I bought one that's too wide for most PCB use, and just bend my resistors by hand still. Probably better for those vero-junkies than those that prefer PCBs. [EDIT: I should've mentioned that there...

I missed it when it was first posted, but... What a great build report! Thank you for sharing your mods, CD, I've added them to my notes. Much obliged. Further to modding, for anyone that lands on this thread looking for yet more ways to tweak the circuit, here's some cross pollination for...

Clean build! The Low Tide signage for the graphic is inspired!
