    Missing Build Docs / Schematics

    For the Bellum fuzz silkscreen it says *27k* any idea what the asterisks are for? Socket?

    Relay Bypass and Off Board Wiring

    Oh I’m just wiring it for bypass actually. Not switching. Do I just treat the Relay board as if it were a breakout board on a normal 3pdt switch?

    Relay Bypass and Off Board Wiring

    Follow up question on wiring. How do you wire the multiple in and out pads? Do you wire the main PCB to the relay PCB and then to the jacks? Use the ground wires on the main PCB? thanks in advance.

    Leprechaun stops working

    Hi, I build a leprechaun about a year ago and it worked fine for a while. Recently went to mod the exp control and I’ve been having the weirdest issue. Everything works fine and sounds chorused and woozy. And then it will stop the fx all together and just pass clean. I can get it to replicate...

    SOLVED Ocelot no octave

    That’s it! Thanks so much. I stared at it too long to see that. And I already replaced one TL072 that I bent the leg on! All good and classic OC-2 sounds now!

    Squidward Help

    What you’re describing sounds like it’s working correctly. The green ringer octave up is usually an add-on to a fuzz. It needs some gain of some sort to do its thing. But as folks have said, 12th fret and neck pickup will give the most pronounced glitch, gated octave up noises. I still love it.

    SOLVED Ocelot no octave

    Hi all, put together the Ocelot Octaver tonight and plugged it into the brand new Auditorium testing platform. When I plug it in, it turns on and the volume work, but neither octave works. I’m pretty sure I have version 1 so I did the IC mod of the legs per the instructions and soldered and...

    20u vs 22u Cap for Twin Face Fuzz

    I've been looking high and low for 20u electolytic caps and am not having much luck for the Twin Face. Will 22u work? The only 20u I can find are 300v or higher, which probably makes them too big to fit on the board. Any thoughts on if 20 vs. 22u is a deal breaker?

    Small capacitors

    Also regarding the smaller 1u caps, it also seems like socketing the TL072 might be too risky. It looks like it is right up against the bottom side of the daisy when you socket it underneath it. I'll probably just solder the TL072 directly since I won't be swapping IC's. Is this what other folks...

    What's All This Matching Stuff About? - part 1

    Chuck, amazing job explaining all this to all of us less literate builders out there. ? I know you were mostly discussing matching phasor for transistors but for SMD components like a JFET201, will I still need to test them or are they robotically built to enough spec to be matched because...
