I'm wrapping up a 2204 jcm800 clone right now, but the combo lead/bass looks like the answer I've been searching for!

See, something dumb just like I thought! Thanks for the help

Working on a JCM800 clone and am running into a weird continuity issue in testing. I am getting continuity between ground and both the tip and sleeve on the speaker output. Does anyone see any glaring issues? I'm sure that I am missing something dumb but would like some extra eyes to take a...

Hahaha

Thanks, looks like I have some studying to do

How do you like the pedal baby?

Does anyone know of the power amp of the orange super crush 100 is the same as the orange pedal baby? On the surface, they look the same but trying to confirm.

I replaced C3 with a 100nf and my rate is nice and slow like I wanted it. Can still get a good warble by cranking up the lag. I socketed the 100nf to play around in the future with it, but I got some distortion in the path now, so might rethink that idea.

Robert was right. Unboxed the pedal and everything worked again. Re-wired and re insulated everything and re boxed, and now we are in business! Thanks for all of the help! I really want to say thanks to Locrian. As frustrating as this troubleshooting session was for me, you really gave me...

Ok I have remove the volume pot. I get continuity between pin 5 of the foot switch and pads 2 and 3. Also get continuity from pin 5 to output tip and pcb out pad.

So trying to understand this for future use. if I want to leave the foot switch out and have the pcb always on, I can just run the in and out pads directly to the jacks? What then happens to the ground and sw pads?

I do have signal in bypass and also previously had the wet signal working as well

Right after posting my last comment, i happened to bump lugs 1 and 2 on the volume pot while connected to pin 5 on the switch. Turns out that all of the lugs on the volume switch are grounded. :confused:

I have continuity between lug 2 and the tip of the output jack. Checking the switch I get the following: 1 has continuity to pcb input 2 does not have continuity to output tip but does have continuity to input tip 3 has continuity to 9 4 has continuity to sw pad 5 has continuity to ground on...

I'm not in a position to do any more testing tonight but when I tested earlier I had continuity between lugs 2 and 3 when fully cw and continuity between lugs 1 and 2 when fully ccw. I will run through the switch again in the morning.
