I built one for a friend back in late June that I hand drilled and then filed rectangularish. I now have a rotary broach that I'm going to try on the next one once I get the right collet.

.....now if he had said build docs. 😂

The TwinFace taught me all about this.

Nice, clean looking build! I get switch pop on my Paragon build also. I'll be watching this for possible solutions.

Paradox Hiwatt!

I get a new set of tubes for all my amps as "backups". I've had tubes straight up shatter, in the socket, overnight, after just playing them once. They certainly aren't made like they used to be! It certainly sounds like bad tubes to me but I would definitely check the voltages against the...

My "grocery store" has a trip to Cancun for the max prize. A few people have won it but that too much herbal...even for me! I just cash in for free concentrates produce when the points get piled up. I love this idea, even if I only build a few, select pedals a year!

+1 ALL OF THIS!

Sounds like power but we need pics! Both sides of the board please.

I only count 81.... :ROFLMAO: jjk, wishing good luck your way. Audio proba is your frienda.

Looks like a couple cold joints on your treble pot.

NTE Electronics SW02-10 No-Clean Solder Wick, #4 Blue, .098" Width, 10' Length

High quality braid and more flux is your friend. Also this tool is of a different caliber than any other suckers I've tried:

Is your 1044 installed upside down? It's correct. Sorry.

An audio probe along with a signal generator found the issues quickly. Sometimes it just takes writing the problem out in order to get the proper perspective on the issue. After I originally posted I got reinvigorated to find the problem.

Three pads had been broken! I also swapped out R3 as it was reading 75k and electrosmash BOM says 22k. The trace from the new input had been boinked as well as both of the inductor traces. "Home Dentistry" costs double! :D JJK, I'm just glad I got it!

Hello all! I've successfully done a few of these stinkfoot bypass mods now. This one was working when I sent it off but it sure isn't now. Bypass works fine and the LED lights but zero sound for the effect. I moved the inductor to the top two pads but I had to flip it in order to fit. I'm...

I never woulda thought this habit could be borderline controversial. :ROFLMAO: I forget where I picked up the habit, probably Psionic, Brad or some other kudo retentive tech. I definitely don't see it as "wholesome". Holistic perhaps. Just an ounce of prevention tbh as well as a way to...

Always. After I test but before I install. It doesn't always make a difference but it does enough to make me want to keep doing it. It also stopped the random hard to solder components from happening to me.

I always clean leads with ISO and a kimwipe before installing.
