Never heard of it before, but the demo sounds pretty sweet. Hope we see a PCB for the one.

Yeah, and it looks sparse. Ridiculously sweet. @vigilante398 , looks like a full-wave rectifier on the power input. I know you've mentioned that before, mind explaining or showing how that works? I know you power the heaters directly from the power supply at 12 or 9 volts.

Think it'd be worth it to put a switch on C35 for a boost/OD option?

LA-2A?

Looks like JLCpcb has PT2399 available in their SMD parts library. It wouldn't be that much of a stretch or expense to have custom 'reverb bricks' manufactured.

I'm liking this one. NPN JFET as the input transistor with PNP Ge.

Go back to 100K but use an audio taper pot.

I did my own version with all the controls external, including hi-gain mod. I also used another inverting opamp stage to align the input and output phase as well as give it some more available output. Easy to understand why this design is so popular. It's extremely versatile and sounds great...

Sausage and beans. Yum. What LDRs did you use? Haven't gotten around to mine and I need to do it.

Whoof. $1,500

From what I'm reading, tube supply should rebound before too long, though I don't think prices will be as low as we've gotten used to. A lot of the problem is panic buying - including me, who got caught without a backup set el84s. @vigilante398 you never cease to impress me. That was fast...

I'm curious about these, but I'd need knobs for knurled shaft and I was hoping to keep using the standard Rickenbacker design.

I'm seeing CTS guitar pots with a "J" taper. Thinking that might be the ticket for a volume pot.

Looking for recommendations for some really good guitar pots: better taper, quality feel. I know there are some companies speccing out 'premium' pots and I'm not sure what's out there and what's really worth the extra dough.

I went back and breadboarded the Azabache not too long ago when I was messing around with biasing. Didn't like it nearly as much as I remembered, I gotta say.

Funny this came up. I recently met up with a guy who has a Fuchs ODS and we A/B tested the ODS submini tube preamp pedal I made using the Fuch's loop return. We both thought the pedal preamp actually sounded just as good, if not a bit better! I'm suspicious the depletion mode, high -voltage...
