Thank you for the replies. I did some more searching. For reference this video has the exact process of removing and jumping D1 and R3 on a CE3, starting at 11:49: But here's the Grey Bench guy adding a bridge (On a CE2): And here's the adding a bridge at a different spot (On a CE3)...

Pulled out my old CE 3 that I inherited from a band I was in that ended 17 years ago. (The guy who this belonged to has my vintage Cry Baby) The LED lights up with a battery so it is not dead, but when I use my power supply the pedal works but the LED doesn't light up. Some searching says this...

There will be several guys who will have more knowledge than I who will reply here but what I have learned from them is that the measurement of the PNP Germanium transistor is more important the type. There is recommended specs for a Range Master treble booster that is searchable here and on the...

Thank you!

Thank you for that. Regarding using Eagle, is it true that there is some strategy on creating a good PCB layout from a schematic that is independent from learning the ins and outs of the software? I remember several complimentary comments about the layout of @Robert 's PCB here.

I emailed Effects Layouts about the Mitt and he said it just out of stock and will be included on his next re-stock order.

That brings me to ask one of those "afraid to ask" questions / subjects. Eagle is a software to create PBC designs? Then the created files are used to fabricate PCBs at places like JLCPCB? What is a "lard?" Maybe this is the same thing but what is one to do with this kind of thing on the...

This one? https://aionfx.com/project/astra-silicon-fuzz/

Oh wow, I see that. Maybe he discontinued it. I was thinking of getting another for a stand alone as the one I built is part of a 2 in 1 pedal. Bummer.

Effects Layouts has one in a 125B enclosure called the "Mitt."

I have my father-in-law's 1966 Fender Champ amp. At some point the original 2 prong was replaced with another 2 prong. I have been wanting to use my pedal building experiences into building an amp someday and I was thinking about removing the "death cap" and replacing the current 2 prong cord...

Do you mean the "Tim?"

Thank you! Yes big resistors because of mistakenly selecting 1 watt instead of 1/4 watt resistors, lol.

Here is my first compressor build. I saw the Wampler demo-ed on That Pedal Show last year and decided to build this. I have only recently began to utilize a compressor. I have a Xotic SP that I started fiddling with more so this, with more knobs, seemed like the next step.

That would be exciting. And scary. I double checked and the lowest voltage is one that is 35v so just 1 volt shy of double. Sounds pretty safe.
