What are those minimal open frame jacks you used? I see them in builds but no idea where they come from!

I suppose you do have me dead to rights on the passive aggressive thing. I give you that. I was indignant that my difficulties were being explained away as just being too new here. In my defense, I originally was puzzled that the board was illustrated with only part references (R12, C15, etc)...

OK. Thank you for providing that missing information.

I see that it is true. I did not know, as you many "clubhouse" members do, that it also means, possibly with errors, omissions and missing or too-sparse information. Now I know much better what the scene is here.

What do you mean by Dual Build Option for 2N5457s? Do those unlabeled empty rectangles at the 2N5457 locations have any significance?

If, like me, you just pop in from time to time to see if anything piques my interest, there's no way to tell that something was just introduced. It's just another board. It's wrong to assume that if I buy one that just coincidentally happens to be new that I am a knowing early adopter and...

That's great news.

Firstly - Thank You. That completes the requirements for a build. Secondly... well...So much is assumed here that requires me to have much experience with the peculiarities of your one way of doing things. It's your call, of course but I would like to point out that not everybody is a veteran...

Board arrived today. Still a couple questions -- 1. is the idea to align the unmarked solder pads at the bottom of the board on the left & right sides to the similar unmarked solder pads on the switch PCB? Start at the left and connect a wire from the leftmost hole on the board to the leftmost...

Very good. Thank you.

Do you mean that the board as shipped will differ from this one shown online? Right now it shows numbers for the parts instead of parts values.

Looking at the board for the Pharmacist Overdrive, I see that the locations are all marked with references to to C10, R13, etc. I don't see a parts list, BOM or schematic to follow. Will that info be included with the board when shipped?

Note that the original Texas Instruments transistor was a 2C381 not a 2SC381. I made the same mistake and now I have 20 silicon NPN 2SC381 transistors that are of no use in a Tonebender MK I.

No, it's great and I love it. barely any expectations, I was just intrigued by the idea of a Double Tracker and I had no awareness at all of the Keeley. My controls behave as I described and I have a use for all the sounds it produces whether it matches the 30ms or not. All I was saying is...

Maybe mine isn't working properly. Mine works like this: Switch up: "fast" mode - short delay, both tuning knobs function; switch center: no delay, one pitch knob works and produces a typical up and down sweep but very faint -have to turn the one working knob nearly all the way up, the second...
