    Beginner - recommendations for Veroboard Source?

    I honestly haven't bothered remembering a source as I've probably bought from four places and it's all been just fine. Maybe good luck on my part.

    I built a bunch of PCBGM pedals so you don’t have to

    CARCHARIAS, COME BACK! I'd buy that Sagan PCB too. Re: Guitar Mania, I bought two from them when I started building, and I received three: Uberschall: Kind of early build for me so I was sure it had to be me. Could be. But, I put some care and effort into troubleshooting, feel like I found a...

    What do people like to use for LED's and bezels?

    I like finding odd ones at the surplus/salvage. I tend not to do LED choice or placement until I decide on the art--it always depends on the art.

    Cricut Decals

    I switch back and forth between a cheap Kindle Fire app, Design Space, and Word for font work :ROFLMAO:. Your pedals look very clean! Do you hit them with any coating after?

    Enlightenment

    I use coin batteries to test LEDs work before I solder. I'm interested to hear if anyone does think they should have a CLR; I bet the CLR comment was meant if they choose to use a 9V.

    What should i do with this 1590G enclosure?

    lol, just another small build, bazz fuss. When I'm stressed at work I tend to make small circuits for a quick break.

    What should i do with this 1590G enclosure?

    I've got a vero Arrows circuit in a small plastic enclosure that I ended up liking a ton for its size. Toggle instead of stomp, banana for scale.

    Newb to the Forum question

    I have no qualms buying from Tayda for anything they do sell. I stick to alpha pots from Tayda rather than their brand but I personally haven't had issues with any brand of pots. I like to get wima for film caps, wherever I can get them. I tend to get jacks and switches elsewhere just out of...

    Kliche - No Bypass?

    Never can have enough switches. You added the 3PDT daughterboard that came with the PCB, not a different one? I've had only one bad 3PDT and I've never managed to bridge lugs (yet), but that's just my semi-newbie experience.

    Mystery machine Volume Issue

    OK, got it. Yes, I have the OC79 footprints. This was an early build for me and going back over it I just found a cap I must have thought was "close enough" at the time. It's working and sounds good. Thanks

    Mystery machine Volume Issue

    I just glanced at the current version and one that's on Reverb, and I see the PCB's changed from the version above, which is also the one I built a while back. Did anything change that people who bought the old PCB could be aware of?

    Mystery machine Volume Issue

    Resurrecting a quiet thread, yes, I had the same issue with this pedal.

    SOLVED Son of Ben - Solder Pad Came Off

    Looking at the BOM, if you are now installing a B1M dual gang that bridge should be broken (well, not connected) anyway, right? My first guess is it's fine as-is.

    SOLVED Son of Ben - Solder Pad Came Off

    The schematic will show it better than the PCB anyway.
