Chuck mentioned, that the GE should be like 50-70 hfe.

Same with me when i started with Musikding kits. Now i am into 1590B and top jacks and Lumbergs, so my stock of them don‘t go away.

Nice. I still have a pcb waiting to be build in my stash.

Yes the pedal is fun and helps my Les Paul neck to sound less muddy and give a Strat some beef. I did a lot of tweaking with input HPF caps. I used pin sockets in both slots. My fav config is now 15nF instead 3.3 nF, the 68nF is actually quite nice.

What Erik said. No experience with this circuit, but the extreme settings on the jfet trims don‘t look right.

The washer is like the icing on the cake.

I recently build a Corroder and its still on the Auditorium platform. I lend it to a friend, who owns several Marshall amps. He checked it out and told me, he won‘t give it back. I had to say okay keep it, but i need the Auditorium back…:ROFLMAO:

Basically its a tweaked Lightspeed with additional hardclippers. I had the chance to compare my Sheepylove Speedy Sheep version of the Lightspeed with an original Southland. While the Lightspeed has more of a neutral dirty booster or overdrive, the southland is a refined Distortion. The...

If it's metric it should be an M13 nut with a thickness of 1mm. It's normal to have the thread .2 or .3 mm smaller to fit.

Fuzzdog pedals have a vast selection of onboard boosts https://shop.pedalparts.co.uk/category/boost My recommentation is the Dart Boost (EQD Arrows).

I believe, there is nothing like a 12.7mm metric nut. I am quite sure its an imperial nut with a metric measurement. The 1.0 should be the wall thickness. If it was just written off the nut, its the thickness of the nut. The thread pitch on the metric system is given by the standards and don‘t...

I double checked it too. Most sources say GE, but this standard reference book states S. To me all vintage black glass diodes were Ge, but certainly there a lot of silicons amongst. Funny enough my stash of Valvo OA5 and OA7 diodes are not even mentioned in this book. Maybe they are fake?!?

@MichaelW Hate to be the partypooper, but my my to go reference https://www.worldradiohistory.com/UK/Bernards-And-Babani/Babani/108-Michaels-International-diode-equivalents-guide.pdf says CV7364 to be american made silicon like european AAZ12

Best use an additional board like this https://guitarpcb.com/product/dpdt-wiring-board/ with a on/off/on switch. Wire the LEDs to the main board, they have the highest Vf.
