I was chased out of RadioShack for asking about a variable capacitor in 1995 as a 13 year old. The employee correctly accused me of attempting to build an illegal cable box. Good times.

I’ve done this plenty of times, looks dope

A10 for the volume pot is a common mod. It gives more resolution at those lower volumes

It really is a great reverb, exactly what I was looking for. I would actually love the file for little table to slap on my own if you don't mind. I built mine a while ago but never got around to doing artwork, which I'd planned to have a similar table on the face amongst some other design ideas

https://www.tubesandmore.com/ Definitely check these guys out too. They've got a little bit of everything folks like us need. Great knob selection, lots of germanium diodes and transistors etc. Good customer service and fair prices too. I grabbed my 1n270 from them but who knows what I'll end...

Maybe this lil guy? https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/NKK-Switches/MB2461E1G01?qs=ZEIBj%2FxFsqXw7SHYwZEyKw%3D%3D

Oh damn, I'm shot out. I need more sleep. Thanks!

Am I the only one who doesn't know what to do with the ferrite bead?

I yup...that's the sound. Thanks! I had them all at 9v initially but something wasn't quite right, I think it's bc it was super late and I can only play so loud in my shop w the door open (it's hot here this weekend). Having said all that, this thing is dope.

I'm assuming the J201 at the top left gets biased to 9v and the two at the bottom are around 4.5? Mine really sings at those settings but I could be wrong. The lowest I could bias the top left transistor was 6.4ish and it was sounding off. Maybe someone else could chime in

Hope you're planning on using this knob layout for the JHS crayon

I didn't want to build another Klon but I supposed I'm forced to. I see accommodations for the Bones' bass version (which I recently built, it's fantastic), are there any other changes besides the knobs and footswitch layout?

Incredible!

I'm at a loss for ideas on how to troubleshoot this one. Signal passes perfectly in bypass, but when engaged (with a j201 or jumpered) I have less than half the output I should. What I CAN hear sounds great, but that's as much as I got so far. The red clipping LED's light up when I play but the...

@fig i noticed those Panasonic polymer electrolytic caps are rated at 16v, but this electrovibe mini circuit calls for 25v or higher. You're not having any problems with those? Thanks!
