Looking good! I was inspired to call my Sushi Box King Nothing (a Kingsley Harlot) the Courtesan from watching Shogun. I am currently finishing up my Two Tone, what are the specs of the transistors you used?

I thought I was done with this type of pedal based on what I've built and what I have that were commercially bought, but then I started watching Dave Barber interviews on 5 Watt World and PJ & the Beard, and I was curious. It's pretty good I'd say. But as I thought, I already had this territory...

Thanks!

Ugh, I hate doing my own drilling! :)

Thanks! And did you drill yourself or have Tayda's drill service?

Do you remember what diameter knobs you used? I am looking into parts for this.

Looks great! I am building one of these in the near future and am concerned about getting knobs that will fit. What is the diameter of the knobs you used? Also, yes that Source Audio EQ2 looks cool!

I will add these. The schematic and BOM for the Effects Layouts Prismatic, with the parts mods to turn it into an XTS GE7, which is what I am planning to doing.

I like things about solid and stranded wire. But early on I went with a box of assorted color solid and I still have some left.

It was a little bit of a too long lead on the "-" wire touching lug 1 of the Tone pot on the underside the PCB. Must have got bent toward the pot on re-assembly. Good reminder to clip wire ends after soldering. I see a couple others that need it on this build. Thanks guys!

Continuity with red and green. Not with red and blue.

All soldering was done before removal to work on enclosure graphics.

I finished this Candid Drive and tested it on the Auditorium Test Platform and then in the enclosure. Everything seemed fine. I then took it apart, applied a waterslide decal and clear coat to the enclosure, and put it back together. Now the TONE pot is acting like a volume and I am almost...

Here's my King Nothing. I originally installed D1 backwards and didn't catch it until after a good length Troubleshooting thread. D'oh! I was embarrassed about that. Sounds killer. Versatile with the 3 gain and bass positions. I compared it to my Madbean Archibald (Tube Driver) since it also...

I remember a thread that someone was discussing replacing some cap/caps with different values to get more low end thump. I was thinking about doing that too but I got distracted with other building. Search “Govenator” and it will probably be easy to find.

Although out of caution, I waited for something like 30 minutes before I started handling it! And then when taking voltage measurements I followed the strict policy of keeping one hand behind my back.

Looks good! I just finished one also and it sounds great and is pretty versatile. There was a post at some point from @vigilante398 that said after about 90 seconds the caps have discharged. I had an issue with mine and I confirmed that in my troubleshooting tread. He said basically if you wait...

Yeah, that was it. Tried the 2N2222A transistors backwards and it made sounds. Sounds similar to the BC547A but even more gated in general, except for a certain small range on the bias knob. Not sure which I like better, going to have to listen to each more.

Oh! That's probably it! I looked up the pinout but didn't realize there were 2 opposite variants. I'll try it. Thanks!

Here's my finished Beatle Juice. I am using 1N4148 diodes currently since others have previously said that they didn't hear a difference between those, 1N914 and OA200 in the original. I am using the original BC547A transistors which are hfe in the 300s but I did try 2N2222A which were in the...
