Nice. That's a lot of labeling to fit in and it looks great. I actually bought one of these. Its the only TS I like because I can make it so different. I might use an oasis board to build a smaller version with only my settings.
Just straight ahead chug! Layout from dirtboxlayouts. After I built it I got curious about mods and got a breadboard going. Then lost interest. Haha. I have some notes but need to revisit that project and see if i can't easily mod this build. The art is a beer label I peeled off the can. It came...
I have taken my BS elsewhere!
I have some AC176's in that sound really good.
So do AC127 buuuuuut I only have 2 and am not sure i am committing them to this.
MN37 is the closest I have to what is stock in the DBA but they are a bit mild.
I will definitely do a stripboard layout soon. I dont think Ill need to tinker with this circuit much more. It's pretty perfect. I just need to commit to some germaniums soon. There is a pile of them on the work bench to be tried and biased.
R3/4 are going to be 10M. It will let me put where...
That was helpful. Made me realize I was barking up the wrong tree trying to adjust things to suit me a little more. I finally found the solution and it was C7. I think I will end up with a 3way switch to have 10n, 22n and 47n. It moves the notch around in a way I Iike very much.
I am curious about R3 and R4. I like to put filter pedals after dirt and sometimes modulation, delay. Buffers will change the sound so what happens if I change R3,4 to 10M like a typical Sho boost? I tried it on the breadboard and I dont think it affects the tone much. But my ears are fallible...
This guy has been on the bench for months and months. In part because I'm indecisive but mostly because I was way out of my comfort zone. It has been a great project to learn and get into new territory.
I first started with the DBA Sound Saw. I liked the idea of it but wanted to make it suit...
Here is a custom Muff. Started as a green russian and evolved into whatever it is now. :) Fairly flat eq, a little thicker all around, nice sweep across the gain control. Sustain and Tone are swapped from their traditional places because...well...I wasn't paying attention and there isn't much to...
