Is the TC-1 reliable for leakage measurements? I feel like I remember hearing it was not, but I don't know for sure.

Also I was convinced the post title was randomly generated and would totally be spam, but turns out it's totally accurate! :)

This is an amazing experiment, and i can't wait to see how it turns out. Could you coat the transistor bodies somehow to keep moisture out? Seems like even a thin coat of wax would help.

Curious about this too. I know the original EP-3 preamp circuit used around 22V, and they do intentionally include this in pedal recreations, but I'm not sure how it's being used if the transistors are being biased lower than half that. I'm tempted to see what the transistors in my real...

Love it! And @Feral Feline is always a mensch with the wiring advice!

Using the Filter pot's lug is genius, never would have thought of that! Now I need to figure out the best grounding point for the vero board, I guess I could just run it to one of the jacks? Seems easier than trying to tie into the PCB. Thank you!

Actually, I think I know how I'd do the Ruetz mod, just run resistor to one lug and resistor PCB pad, center lug to other original resistor pad, and the other lug empty.

Hey all, I am building a Rat/Muroidea for a friend, and I want to add a switch using 3 pairs of different clipping diodes, like so: This may be obvious/dumb (heh, *may*), but I get the principle, but not how to actually wire up the switch. I am using an SPDT On/Off/On like this one, which I...

Which one? There are hundreds...

That's a good idea too, hadn't thought of that. Looks like I have lots of options now!

Broken piece is gone, so sculpting seems like my best bet.

I would, but it makes the wah off balance and not user friendly at all :( I guess I could glue the rubber bumper thing to the back plate. That might work just as well. And this is why I asked here, solutions abound lol.

Howdy folks, I am trying to repair a screw boss on a wah pedal. It seems to have broke off at some point. I'm not sure how to approach this. My thought so far was to use something like JB Weld or epoxy to build it back up somehow. Maybe insert a screw or stick or something into the hole until...

Beautiful guts on that thing!

Well, that counts me out lol.
