    1981 DRV (Informant) Build Report

    I use these from Tayda but some have sworn them off because for some QC issues. https://www.taydaelectronics.com/dc-power-jack-2-1mm-round-type-panel-mount-1.html All good though. I still have an outie on a build that I had to take apart and put back together like 8 times. I did find out that...

    1981 DRV (Informant) Build Report

    I say share more builds anytime. I appreciate the dedication to red wire. I would've never guessed that was made on a cricut. Welcome to the white washer club! All are accepted. Few are loved. But let's talk about that outie jack ...

    PT-2399 Quality Question

    +1 for Tayda being a compromise on price. For the price I just buy 4 at a time and I've had good luck. They work as expected.

    Awful Waffle

    Was the issue with the DC Jack the threading grip? The waffle was a hard build for me too. I think I took 2 or 3 shots before I got one done. Even then I think I need to flip chips because mine whines depending on other circuits in the chain. I appreciate your labeling. Especially the soft...

    Fuzz suggestions

    Whatever fuzz you choose I suggest using it into a Mofeta. The mofeta can get sorta fuzzy on its own but it takes a boost like a dream and makes for a really heavy preamp in a box.

    Roast My Build - Brown Betty

    I also hate the naming... But then again I do love the Runt 50 I am playing on. Ha! I had purchased the Brown Betty PCB prior to the amp. But as far as distortion pedals go I like it.

    Roast My Build - Brown Betty

    Believe me when I say that my dreams of doing this for profit were shattered on build #1. but at least that stopped me, while others may have chased those pipe dreams. Valid. But it is nice to have the Tight AND Presence knobs. I noticed playing this yesterday into my headphone setup that those...

    Roast My Build - Brown Betty

    ROAST MY BUILD! Sometimes it gets pretty chummy around here. In the spirit of IAIGF, tell me why this build is hideodorous! So ugly it stinks. I think the sounds it makes into a clean amp make it worth the bigger enclosure. The great component layout made this a breeze to populate in rows. I'm...

    BBE Good Enough flanger ( FL9. )

    Sometimes a build is so good it almost hurts. This one actually hurts. Well done!

    help with Nobleman output very low

    Try to follow the signal path in the schematic. It should be pretty straight forward

    Klon, Precision Drive, Mini, Ionostrofear, and Megalith

    It's on the list for that really sharp gate. I've not played a gate that felt natural to my hands and ears but supposedly the Zuul is pretty much the king. Thanks for the heads up. Maybe I will pass on the precision drive then. I actually had originally typed out that it feels synthy playing it...

    Klon, Precision Drive, Mini, Ionostrofear, and Megalith

    I've been curious about the precision drive as a TS alternative and the Attack knob seems like it could be cool as a noise gate alternative. I love the smaller form factor Megalith. I very much prefer the Megalith on bass though so try that out. Super cool builds. I love how cohesive the...

    Ghordo fuzz (vanity fuzz face content)

    I hope the recipient isn't like me and the first thing he does is not to shake it as hard as he can to hear the tone rattling around inside.

    Ghordo fuzz (vanity fuzz face content)

    I would totally step on that. I love that pristine white gutshot and the wrapped wire. Is the battery held by anything?

    Equilux - Luna Dual Equalizer

    This is super cool and well executed. The idiot in me is just churning out million dollar ideas after seeing this. Like if you made 3 of these and put all three in the loops of a VFE Klein Bottle... 🤡

    Mach 1 + Southern Belle Combo - 3PDT Popping

    There a great thread somewhere around here about a combo build with popping and it has about 50x possible solutions for you. Sadly I forget which it was but search for titles with "pop" or "popping" and you will find loads of information and things to try. It all depends on the parts, their...
