I built one of these on Vero today. Wow - really good fuzz! Do I see some Skreddy influence in there? The Attack control make all the difference in the world. It has become more than just another Fuzz Face. Fantastic. I'd be tempted to somehow preset the Fuzz control and just use the Attack as...

Anything missing? Snacks.

This is the closest I've found to a purple LED indicator: https://www.taydaelectronics.com/electromechanical/switches-key-pad/stomp-switch/illuminated-push-botton-foot-3pdt-switch-pedal-purple-color.html I've used quite a few of these and they are definitely purple. Not pink. But it does depend...

Slow and steady wins the race.

I had an amp which I built which sounded great but after about 1/2 and hour it started acting up - harsh distortion and cutting out. Took ages to find the problem. Turns out it was a cold joint on one of the preamp sockets heater pins which you could only see with a mirror. (I have a little...

I would assume that it's ok to show boobs on the front of pedals if we already have knobs there.

Well that sounds like a grounding issue.

I'll have to look into the elaborate way you have changed the treble control. It's all a bit over my head - I addressed the mid-hump at the bass control in my Strawberry but your solution is no doubt more elegant and electronic. In the Strawberry I think I put the treble control on the...

Beautiful. :) Probably even sounds good!

I've never heard anything about hanging hammers in Australia. But we may ask "How's it hanging?" when meeting up with a friend. And we often refer to a hammer as an American screwdriver. Does this help? :)

I bought about a dozen metal cans from Small Bear a year or two back but I'm not sure that will help you as I don't know how likely that is to happen again. But they are the real deal and sound suitably Ratty.

I LOVE the idea of buying one of these tuners. But I'm in Australia, and the kit at US$149 + US$35 shipping is about Aust$280 at the moment - and it will be more with credit card fees, paypal fees whatever. My Peterson mini is now Aust$189 (US$124) at my nearest store, but I usually get a decent...

Salutations. Oh yeah, that's pretty bad! What's wrong with "Now fucking listen up, assholes..." Strangely I'm ok with howdy.

Ha! So I'm not alone!

For truly terrible interviewing check out Lee Anderton. He talks over his interviewees, ignores what they say and butts in non-stop. His factory visit videos are truly cringe-worthy. He just ignores the host and keeps looking away and gets things wrong. But at least he's not quite as annoying as...

"...a less talented Bonnamassa..." Wow. That's as harsh as I can imagine. I guess Bonnamassa is talented but not in any way I value. That's almost like saying a less talented Miley Cyrus. Probably talented but so irritating that you don't get so far as to appreciate it.

That's called survivor bias. It's the ones that explode and take the player with them that you never hear about.

What could be simpler? Way to make things hard for yourself! :ROFLMAO: Still, all's well that ends well. I share your liking for short bat switches set deep into the enclosure. I think pcb designers should allow for that. Exposing too much switch thread is a massive faux pas. Indecent really.

Yeah I know they are different opamps but I struggle to hear a difference! I mean obviously the difference is 2000 but it's hard to hear. I do like the Tender Loving Care though. I feel that's the important thing. Plus I have quite a few TLC272s. And I think if vertical components are good...

I feel I should add that Chuck has been incredibly generous with help and knowledge with me in aiding my feeble attempts to find the sounds I want. He may be a stern taskmaster but he is a treasure to this forum. And now I will stop sounding like a sycophant.
