    What plectrum does everyone use?

    Dunlop delrin .71 . Took me a long time to settle on one. I tried nature, small, thick, thin etc. I love these picks. I play mostly blues, rock and acoustic. I'm intermediate at best so shredding is not in my forte. This allows me to do pretty much everything I need.

    SOLVED Tone Vendor MKI no sound

    I tested all 3 transistors. All are reading 62-63 hfe. I did not breadboard as I was building onto the PedalPCB PCB. I generally only breadboard if I'm building onto a stripboard.

    Muffin Fuzz Combo

    So Muffin Fuzz is by far my favorite PCB, in particular the Green Russian variant. I have built and sold this a few times. I actually had someone who has the old massive Green Russian buy my version because he wanted something that took up less space on his board. He sent me a side by side demo...

    SOLVED Tone Vendor MKI no sound

    All 3 have HFE of 62-63. I did put them into my tester to get the C/B/E oriented right

    SOLVED Tone Vendor MKI no sound

    Hi all, Just finished building the Tone Vendor MKI. Getting sound in bypass, but nothing when engaged. I have an audio signal tracer, and tracing the circuit, I'm getting sound on input, at C1 and on the base pin on Q1 (using AC128 for all 3 transistors). The sound dies on C2, which is listed...

    VHS question. Subbing 25pf for 15pf in C7 slot

    Thanks for this. I just went back to my tester docs, and the limit starts at 25, which explains why it was saying unknown value or damaged part. Just put the pedal on the protoboard and it works great. Thank you

    VHS question. Subbing 25pf for 15pf in C7 slot

    Hi all, Looks like I got a bad batch of capacitors. Just ran 10 through my tester and all reported damaged part. I tested with other capacitors in between so I know the reader is good. The closest I have is a 25pf. I've never used or built anything with an FV1 chip before. From the schematic...

    Modding the Cujo fuzz

    I've built the Cujo fuzz before and really like it, but I was wondering is there any way to have potentiometers replace the treble boost and fat switch so you're left with an almost eq on the pedal with the mids pot already there. I hope I'm making sense. Cheers all.

    SOLVED No Gain - Kliche Mini

    Anytime my brother and I thought we got one over on our mother as kids, we'd say "Great minds think alike". To which she'd reply "yes, and fools seldom differ". I don't know if we're great minds or fools, but I did a search for Mini Kliche here because I had this exact issue, and had put NF...

    Little green scream machine help

    I did solder 2 together to make the value, but I tested them in my component tester before putting them in

    Little green scream machine help

    The resistors are not touching. Not sure which solder joint that is. Where are you looking? I had reflowed all the joints before posting, so solder should be good

    Little green scream machine help

    Hi all. Does anything seem like it's out of sorts here. Getting sound in bypass but nothing when engaged. I'm using an A20k pot for tone because I don't have a W20k. Thank you as always

    Guvernator - fantastic pedal

    Just finished the graphics on my Guvernator. Love the sound. Absolutely great pedal of you want to rock all the way out!!

    Getting more oomph on Cujo fuzz

    Thanks for the response. First, apologies, I guess in my head I was thinking troubleshooting because I wasn't getting much tonal difference regardless of which position the treble switch was in. It all just sounded a little the same. But it probably is more appropriate in the mods section. As...

    Getting more oomph on Cujo fuzz

    Thank you, any suggestions on what to change to, or maybe I should socket them and try different values

    Getting more oomph on Cujo fuzz

    I just finished the Cujo fuzz build and really like it. If I wanted to get a little more distinction out of the treble boost switch is there any value of the board I could swap out. Doesn't seem like I'm getting a huge noticeable difference on the treble switch, whereas I'm getting a distinct...

    No sound when Cujo Fuzz engaged

    OK, so I'm going to build an audio probe to test the circuit next because everything seems to be ok measurement wise. I just want to make sure I have this correct Mono jack - shield lug goes to ground wire/alligator clip - tip lug goes to live wire/220nf cap/probe tip. Then I plug the guitar...

    No sound when Cujo Fuzz engaged

    Getting 5v on the drain on Q1, 6.6v on the source on Q4 And thank you for the guidance.

    Sorry, forgot to add pic

    No sound when Cujo Fuzz engaged

    No subs apart from the FETs. I'm getting 0.7 v reading with the multimeter, but I'll be honest, I'm not 100% sure if I'm doing it correctly.
