Welcome. It is a fun hobby with a cool byproduct. As @SamuelG suggested... start with kits. I probably built ten StewMac pedal kits before I was confident enough to get a blank PCB. I imagine others learn by reading, watching, listening... I learn by doing and making mistakes. Probably my best...

I tried this circuit with the D9E Ge and a 5mm red diffused LED and the sound was glorious. I love this circuit and that is why I keep building it. I love that the PPCB board is small and has very few components yet the sound is full-on. The LED seems to make it a little lower-toned and...

This is pedal number 82 for me and the second Robin Trower OD I have built. It is very creamy with a distinct-mids-tone. I enjoy the overdrive that this pedal produces, but for me I want to go to a lower tone which I do not think I can get with this pedal. This is more creamy Tube Screamer than...

I agree. Just built a Greer Precipice/Black Mountain Crunch and it sounds great.

Another link here and here about the mods.

Oh thanks much. I think this is about my fifth one and I learn by doing so I’m getting better at it each time I hope.

There are threads about it here and here.

Great pedal. This is the second one I have built and this time I tried to pay homage to the original. I did deviate from build docs, by putting an 18k in R4 and I also made the dwell potentiometer a B25k. I love the sound and yes I am a fan of the Belton brick. For the enclosure it is a Love My...

Glorious overdrive. The toggle up puts this thing into Plexi territory; switch down and it you get lower tones. The pedal itself has no op amp, just some J201s that I sourced from PPCB. I used the Lumberg jacks and a top jack PPCB faceplate. I am a fan of most Wampler pedals and I can say this...

Thanks, I sometimes buy based on what box I can fit them in. I was eyeing that one for a 1590b or less

The pedal has only four potentiometers but the build documents call for 5.

These dimensions may be incorrect based on the image.

Looks perfect!

TV I can send you a completed board and you will be underwhelmed

If you were thinking of building one of these just don’t. After building a couple of these, I can tell you they’re just not great. My only snafu in this build was using a 2N5485 that was no good. Grr. Picture below for posterity. Because I built one of these already I know that the build docs...
