So, after letting this build sit for a few months for letting my frustration cool down, I took the pedal out and reflowed all points and now it seems to work. Is it normal that the pedal does not clean up completely with the drive knob all the way down? It sounds pretty good and its quite loud...

Hey @Haz, sorry for the late reply. I cannot say much about a replacement other than in the BOM from musikding which I posted above, they list SD101A as a replacement for BA282. Hope this might help!

Ok, gonna replace it. Do you think the soldering job is too bad? Got pretty roasted on a Facebook pedalbuilder’s group. I know the power section looks really bad, but other than that? Also some guys mentioned c3 and c4 should be Film caps and not electrolytic. As I ordered it as a kit I would...

I just checked every component and everything is correctly placed. Just reflowed the IC socket connections and taped the back of the tone and body pots just in case they touched the upper pots when placed in the enclosure. The tone knob still cuts volume while turned down but know when the drive...

Hi, tonight I'll check if I didn't put a wrong resistor somewhere. I double checked and caps should be ok. Also cleaned the board a bit. Got a new soldering wire and had to change the temperature of my iron quite a bit so it got a bit messy at the jacks and power section.

Hey guys, I have some issues with my lone king build. Sound is coming out, I just don't get as much volume and drive from my build. Volume goes barely over unity and I've already tried different ICs (RC4558P) and with one I get more drive. My other problem is that the tone knob cuts volume...

Thanks for the info man!

Hey guys, sorry to hijack this thread, but as it already turned into a debugging thread I thought it might be helpful to post here in case somebody else has struggles with this build. In my case my problem is that I don't get as much volume and drive from my build. Volume goes barely over unity...
