Looks great! Where did you find that style of DC jack?? I'll search Tayda for sure! I like that you can remove it to MOD the PCB if needed. Although, it does stick out pretty far. Either way, pretty cool!

Thats a hard lesson!! I did the same. I was lucky it was a fuzz face style pedal and the ground plane, not being placed of the ground net, didn't really mess it up too much. And now thats the first thing I double check. haha!! I'm having a tough time with potentiometer placement. I've sent...

Got it. I’m only planning on selling pedals, not PCB’s (hopefully haha). In that case, I’d only do that for switch breakouts. Makes sense, the larger the board, the higher the cost. JLCPCB has been pretty good so far, as far as cost goes. And the PCB’s have been pretty decent. Thanks again!

This is definitely something I’d like to do. This will save a lot of time and money for sure. I’ll have to do a bit more research to see exactly how to get the cutouts. Eventually I’d like to design a PCB with all components being mounted to the board. But, geting the basics down right now...

Perfect! This is exactly what I was trying to do! I got some good tips yesterday and tried it out. I was happy with the result, but wanted to round out more areas of my PCB. Thanks for the help! This will work out great! Totally agree with this! I tried this method and it’s WAY easier, and...

All worked out great! Got 4 PCB’s under my belt now. Went from knowing nothing but non-related audio electronics to designing a few PCB’s! I was on the fence if I could actually do it, but everyone here got me through it! I’ll post my builds real soon. Now I have to take advantage of the...

Awesome! I knew it would be something super easy! Worked out great. Thanks for the tip.

Probably a real dumb question, but is there a way to round out the edges on diptrace's PCB design? When I do my board outline, I cant find anywhere allowing me to round the edges. Thanks in advance!

Awesome, this’ll help!

I wonder if it was an AC15 or a small Vampower amp?? Either way, I’ve always loved that tone!

Now that I look at the Rangemaster circuit, it is rather easy. I’ve got a couple PCB’s I’ve designed, and I think I’ll do a version of the Rangemaster for sure! I was intimidated by it for reasons unknown haha.

2 classics for sure. Even as Tyrannosaurus Rex Marc Bolan made great music. I was lucky enough to score both those albums, original pressing, from a record shop I used to work at. I’ve always tried to replicate the tones from Electric Warrior, with little success haha. But, I am a drummer by...

Interesting. I’ll have to listen for that a little closer. Maybe a Rangemaster and a lower wattage amp is what I’m looking for.

I’m definitely going to look more into a Rangemaster now. For some weird reason I was a little intimidated to attempt one, especially as an amateur pedal builder/designer. Still getting my feet wet here, but have been learning a lot here for sure.

I'm looking for the tone he had on Electric Warrior. I'm sure a Rangemaster was there. I've read he used a shatterbox, not specifically on Electric Warrior though. I've never played one, so I'm unfamiliar with the tone's it produces. Thats why I would love to build one. And hey, If its not...

Hey everyone! I'm looking to design a PCB for a shatterbox style pedal. I've been looking around for some ideas, but can only find PNP schematics, when I want to use NPN so I can use a power supply instead of a 9 volt battery. Has anyone stumbled across these? I want to get a Marc Bolan type...

Yep. It is a fuzz face style fuzz, I tried adding a tone control, but think I have some values I need to change. Glad I have 4 more and a bread board. Haha. Plus this forum has been the most help.

Ohhhh nice! Thanks for the heads up. I didn’t even know I could remove that! Awesome!

Thanks. JLCPCB.com will make small boards for $2 for 5 boards. Perfect for prototyping. Got my first ones back and they look great! Let me know if you have any questions and I’ll be happy to help with what I can. Best of luck to you! Here it is all built out…….

Thanks, and ya I have those. Sent out one PCB to get made, and got it back already. Sending another out today. I’m having issues with my PCB, but I need to dial in some values. Thanks for all the help!
