Thanks! Some folks cheat with that silicone or Teflon jacket wire, but I like the challenge of regular pvc. 🤣 It’ll melt if you stare at it too hard. I used to do a lot of tig welding, and there’s a similar thing with welding aluminum, where there’s a real small time window between where...

It's a standard 6 knob. There's been a lot of discussion of how to set the trims on these in the forum. Do some searching and you should be able to find whatever you need. I think I just fiddled mine until I liked how they sounded, but here's someone who sounds like they know what they're...

I definitely wondered if I did something wrong with my build or if I was losing my mind. I felt better when I found that TGP thread of people having this issue with the originals. The reason I even bothered messing with different opamps was that I do like the pedal. Tonally, texturally, it's up...

Parallel caps sum right? Can you double it up in the tester with a bigger cap and figure out the difference?

Oh, I see now that left-right is flipped in the picture. Yes, follow the PCB.

Yup. Just like the picture. Square pads get the stripey ends if you go with the 4148s, short leg if you go with LEDs.

Looks like you have the option of 1n4148s using the outer holes, or LEDs using the inner holes. LEDs being Light Emitting Diodes are sometimes used inside a pedal as clipping diodes instead of on the outside for making light.

I’m interested… A quick google gets me to you and @Feral Feline talking blueberries and flapjacks over at the other place. https://www.madbeanpedals.com/forum/index.php?topic=32306.0 Did either of you end up trying those mods?

Hmmm. I have some. Not sure why that didn’t make the list. Here’s a little DI guitar with the kind of crackle-decay I’m talking about. I’ve listened to that sound too much now to feel objective about it. Maybe I’ll pull this back out in a few weeks and see if it still annoys me. Crackly Waffle

Nice neon knee-warmer!

It needs a compensation cap between pins 1 and 8. If I understand it right, very early op amps needed this, and more modern ones have internal comp caps built in. I tried a range of values there, first a 33p since I think that's what a rat would use on an LM308, then some much higher values at...

Pretty sure this was your fault to begin with. :ROFLMAO: https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/favorite-overdrives-please-share.23873/post-302689 The consensus in that TGP thread seemed to be hotcake = best for Vox and worst for fender, so maybe you've got the right rig for it.

I'm in this game more for the solder fumes than the tone chasing. Builds that don't strike my fancy right away usually just go in the drawer and I move on to something else. This was a rare exception where I put a tiny bit of effort into making something sound different. Built to spec with a...

SM7 (pre SM7B) if we’re being picky about it.

Bonus of 57s and 58s is that they’re relatively bombproof, so there’s relatively low risk in scrounging up some battle scarred used ones.

That’s been the entirety of my hand lettering attempts 🤣

Daaaamn! Bravo. That’s a beautiful set. The designs are all great and the lettering in particular is really nice.

Those look great!! Is that all hand-work and spray paint?!

I'd recommend double checking all your component values. For starters, I think one of these is wrong:
