I've read through every thread on the Caesar I could find and this specific issue never seemed to get mentioned to this degree so I'll ask. Also, I know posting pics of the board is standard procedure, but I'm at work right now so I'll have to do that later. I was hoping that maybe the symptom...

I feel your pain, I also had a lot of out of stocks on pots from Tayda. I usually use alpha, but a few I was able to settle for the Tayda version and they worked fine. I also just built an XC Phase which calls for a C500k pot and I accidentally ordered lug ones instead of PCB leg ones. I just...

Ok thank you. I wouldn't call it overly distorted, just not quite squeaky clean like it is with my neck humbucker and middle single coil. The JB is a good bit hotter than the Jazz and Quarter Pounder in that guitar so it makes sense now

Thanks for all this! Any idea about the distortion issue? If it's even an issue?

Thank you. Which resistor would that be? And I assume you adjust it by ear till you have something close to unity volume?

I built an XC Phase and it's working great. The phasing is nice and working as intended, the switches are working as intended as well. There's just 2 things that MIGHT be an issue, but I couldn't tell you if they're normal behavior to begin with. I just did a quick test/trim pot tuning...

You're not wrong there lol. This kind of inspires me to go to thegearpage and start a thread about how I found a special batch, made only during 2 weeks of 2017, of Charlie Brown V4s that have a 91k in that spot instead of 90.9k and the 91k's have that special "something" that the 90.9k's are...

Thank you. I was pretty sure I'm good here, I just want someone to yell at if it blows up, burns the house down, creates a black hole, and sucks us all in. Fate of the universe is on you now :p

Dammit, Jack, you don't know shit!

I'm building a Van Pelt drive and it calls for a 90k9 resistor. I can't find those on Tayda, but they have 91k. I'm pretty sure I already know the answer that this is a stupidly small difference of 0.1k resistance to worry about especially with tolerances being what they are, but I'm just...

You should be able to load any 125b drill template and then remove all other holes from their program

This is exactly the kind of genius I was after. That works, thank you! I tried that without the insulation method above and it just made me too nervous that they'll touch at some point in the life of the pedal if I did this. A combo of insulation and twisting it like you said works wonders...

Im still pretty new and learning some of these tricks, so thanks for your patience! I'm building an Uber Drive which calls for 2 2sc732 transistors, but i had to sub for 2 2n5089's. The base and collector are swapped for these 2 transistors so basically on the 2n5089 I have to swap legs 2 and...

Does this build have the lack of output volume problem that Marshall's original has? I love this circuit, but remember it being a little shy on volume.

This can be closed out. I ended up printing them both and they do indeed match in the center of every hole minus the fact that the toggle switch will just need a slighty bigger washer to cover the hole.

Looking at the drill template in the Duck Box Filter build doc it's looks like this might line up with a Tayda pre-drilled 3 knob type 1 enclosure, just gotta use a wider washer on the toggle switch maybe. Is my assumption correct? Thanks, guys!

Thank you, sir! Saved it to my collection. I love everything you're doing!

Just curious since I cant find drill coordinates for this guy anywhere. If I was to take the Tayda 6 knob type 1 template and eliminate the top 3 and bottom left+right pot holes would that line me up correctly for it? Seems silly to more experienced people to ask for custom drill service on a...

I'm trying my best to skip the drilling process minus maybe minor adjustments here and there if need be. I know it's not super hard, im just very limited on time so my best bet is to stick to builds that have pre-drilled enclosures available from Tayda (or elsewhere if anyone makes them for a...

Hahaha all good, thanks anyway!
