I might try reflowing your solder joints. Very strange as the Blue side has far less gain than the Green, when working properly. Something definitely seems off. What temp is your iron set? Mine is typically around 800 F and solder flows nicely.

Perfect, thank you!

Pcbs don’t always have holes for the standoffs. This is more for adding small daughterboards, or in this case adding a Tentacle to a Muff circuit. It’s just so easy and quick and world’s incredibly well.

They always seem to be out of those Gum Wadz adhesive strips. I’ve got a couple left and think they’re perfect, but can’t find them anywhere. Don’t suppose you found another supplier or an equivalent anywhere? Thanks! :)

Glad you found us! Welcome!!

Mine has quite a few more features than the TC-1. I own a couple of both and use them daily. TC-1 generally for testing tolerances in resistors, caps and silicon transistors prior to installation. If I could only purchase one, it’d probably be the GM328, because it does everything the TC-1...

I just picked up one of these little testers, man are they cool! For under $20 they have so many options, even a signal generator! Still figuring out all the ways I can use this, but it seems like a great little gadget, especially considering the low cost.

Gotcha. Yeah, I just use the drill template you can buy from PedalPCB. Any three knob pedal template should work just fine for this guy.

I really liked this fuzz. Not a huge variation in fuzz, but it sat in a real nice sweet spot for me. I drill all my enclosures, it’s incredibly simple -especially with the drill templates. I just use a metal punch (the automatic kind you just push down on), then hit it with a small drill bit...

Nice work, looks fantastic. The Rangefinder has got to be my favorite boost pedal.

For what it’s worth, I can vouch for: -Echo Nightmare -Acapulco Tone -Green Lemon -Ultimate Pharaoh (although position 5 on rotary always has super volume drop, built 4 of them) -Black Mystic -Black Goat -Cherry Fuzz -Fuzz Blaster (use footswitch in place of toggle though) -Dwarf Android...

I use the same tester for quick results, because they work pretty darn well, for the price. If I ever question the results, I’ll bring out the DCAPro. I’ll say sometimes it will have a glitch and I’ve had the same thing happen on a transistor that read as a transistor in the DCA, but diode in...

Oh shoot! I forgot to post mine…. I just checked and it’s the same as this one. Thanks!

I’ve got a couple at home. At work now, but can upload a couple photos tonight. If you don’t hear from me by 8:00pm, feel free to send a message. Upon further inspection of your pcb picture and the build post, it looks like they just switched R28 and C1 (among possible others, I just...

Enclosure is gorgeous!! Looks like stained glass!

Glad you got it working! I can say I’ve successfully built two of them, so they’re good. Although, you’ve got to be careful with PCBMania boards. Not all of them work. I’ve had a couple duds. Also, funny all the boards I have built that sounded great, my 5 star reviews are up for everyone to...

Love your write ups and your demos!!! Gorgeous tone, my man!! Listened to it a few times in a row. :)

Has anyone heard of/used the Philips ON4292 MOSFET? I recently purchased, what was described as “Philips BS170” and instead received Philips ON4292. I didn’t find a ton of info on these, or whether they’re a direct replacement/different manufacturer number for the BS170. Curious if anyone...

Thanks! Definitely get the pcb and measure it first. It’s very close to the Arkaim, but off enough to cause problems. I ended up getting a small digital calipers from Amazon (for around $30) and they’ve proven to be extremely helpful.

I thought about it…. Would be cool in a larger enclosure where you could use three footswitches. Although, I thought the addition of a toggle wouldn’t be that helpful and it would tempt me to click it with my foot…..
