    SOLVED Need some ears to help me with a client’s concern about some ‘fizzle’

    I’m listening through my crappy iPhone speakers and hear that decay. It sound thought I heard it before he even clicked the pedal on. It sounds like a really weird frequency that the guitar/amp/pedal resonance at to have weird responses. But I don’t know a thing. I just play for fun, build...

    Wait, you’re telling me I DON’T have to hoard PCBs?

    4 knob distortion suggestion

    Honestly, I’m thinking Shredmaster. Omit the clip toggle and move the contour to a smaller pot in the middle.

    4 knob distortion suggestion

    I would, but I made a 1590a rat that is pretty dang good. Just trying to use up what I have on hand to keep costs down.

    4 knob distortion suggestion

    I’m not afraid of flying leads. Does it turn into the spaghetti monster? Yep, does it work? Yep.

    4 knob distortion suggestion

    I purchased a Rat kit from AION a couple years back, but my son decided not to work on it. It's been sitting doing nothing. I figured I could gently scrape the UV printing off and reuse the enclosure and parts for a different project. So, looking for some fun distortions that could fit in a 125B...

    What's on the workbench?

    Ah man. I had the large MadBean version, sold it. Great, now I'm going to have to build it....again.

    Alpha Rotary Switch threading

    Yep, that’s it. Overlooked jt when I was looking through the datasheet - I’m usually finding the diameter of the shaft or overall size. I appreciate you helping me find it.

    Alpha Rotary Switch threading

    Does anyone know what the thread is for an Alpha 3P4T rotary switch? I think I might have lost the nuts for them and probably need to pick up a few to replace and have on hand (because I'm good at losing hardware). Thanks!

    SOLVED FROST DRIVE, no sound either on or bypassed.

    We’ve all been there. So, the LED works but no sound. +9V is working…ish. Can you gator clip the input and output to the jacks of a working pedal (input of known pedal to input of the frost drive board; out of frost drive to the tip of the output jack)? That way it would isolate the jacks and...

    SOLVED FROST DRIVE, no sound either on or bypassed.

    Did you accidentally plug I your guitar incorrectly? Not saying I haven’t done that ever, but…. Maybe something is accidentally shorting somewhere

    US based seller of soldering supplies

    I replaced my cheap iron from Circuit Specialists with another. I’ve also order some parts and haven’t had issues so far. They seem to have a decent variety of soldering supplies. That’s my .05 of experience with CS. But I’m just one dingus.

    Those Bogner Fish command good money (and sound really good). The mystique of them probably drives the prices up (plus rarity). And chickenhead knobs are good in the right application. You can always will it to me! 😂😂

    If you buy that, you can send it my way.

    Tayda Fuzz Face PCB

    Reverse taper is so nice on a lot of controls.

    Tayda Fuzz Face PCB

    You might even find that you leave the fuzz cranked, so you wouldn’t even need a potentiometer there - you’d replace it with a resistor (I did on mine)

    Deciding on first amp build

    After looking at the orange schematics, they really are quite simple. Only weirdness is the FAC tone control and the cathodyne (I think?) PI — more like a tweed fender PI. I think you can build it!

    Resistors in series

    Look at that 1/4W being an awesome big buddy giving little buddy a piggy back ride!

    RAT vs RAT2

    And that's where I get goofed, because when you change 470n to 1uF to 22uF in amp circuits, gain and frequencies passing change. That's a great way to think -- 1uF or more on ins/outs (in cases but not always) is a "blocker"

    RAT vs RAT2

    Makes sense. I figured that had a little bit more impact on it to shape the output. I'm not that circuit smart. :)
