https://www.guitarpedalx.com/news/gpx-blog/12-degrees-of-saturation---key-guitar-overdrive-fuzz-and-distortion-sounds For a first OD pedal for blues and rock, may I kindly suggest all kinds except fuzz and extreme/metal. On this site, a good starting point is anything from the "overdrive"...

Power check (1 A is more than enough), center negative check, barrel size... 2.1mm is the diameter of the inner pin... this looks standard... check. Make sure you get a standard DC jack on your build. All looks good to me. Readers, please chime in for any helpful comments.

Is it possibly that 470 uF capacitor that is soaking the voltage on startup?

Outstanding work. Obligatory "wax on, wax off" comment. :)

Outstanding graphics, you should double whatever price your graphics designer is charging you. So much power in 8 little pins.

TUBE CLEANER :love::ROFLMAO:?

Yes, these are the "orange drop" style capacitors, those are the ones I sourced, since I am familiar with them. I have used the same style on tube amp projects. As you can see, they need a little more room, so they look a little physically oversize. I realize these are less aesthetic than the...

Pro-tip to readers from other newsgroups... strive to make your combination pedals as clean as you see above. :)

Outstanding pro-tips. Appreciate the notes on flux cleaning in particular... need to try this method next time. Also the heat shrink is a sign of pro quality equipment for sure. :) Thanks a ton!

You must be a tube amp builder with those shielded input/output cables. :) Awesome build.

I am going to leave this right here... They asked their producer do we have that wall of sound yet? He replied, no, just a wall of voodoo. :)

In very general terms, you will have regular (small) transistors that can handle the voltage and current for a guitar pedal. E.g.: http://smallbear-electronics.mybigcommerce.com/general-instrument-house-9275-1-pnp/ In other non-guitar applications, you will have large power transistors that...

Remember, the voltage specification of the capacitors is the maximum voltage they can take. Most pedals use 9 (sometimes 12 or 18) volts. So 25V and 100V capacitors are totally ok from that regard.

That guitar pedal is real "horrorshow". "Nice driveway". Privet. khoroshiy tovarishch. zdorov'ye. Spasibo. Привет. хороший товарищ здоровье. Спасибо. :rolleyes:
