Ya I knew it was too good to be true. They had all the oddball parts I needed that I couldn’t get from Tayda in one place. I will say that there Belton brick works great in the reverb and the tm011 transformer worked in the bit commander. But I got hosed on the v3207, and the 2n6027 was a dud.

Fake/not working 2n6027 from banzai music. Buyer beware!

Ya. Bit of a bait and switch. I’ve only mad the one order from them. They may have sent me a fake 2n6027 too. Waiting on a mouser order to confirm

Both really fun builds. I’ve had the PCBs done for a while, but had to wait for B5k pots to restock at tayda. Well worth the wait! First reverb build, and first “whatever the hell a bit commander is” build for me. and don’t worry I straightend out those jacks on the reverb. Just had to snap a...

I ordered one from banzai and they said they were in stock. Turns out they were back ordered. So all I’ve done is preorder one when they come back in stock.

I know there is a chip shortage right now. But if anyone knows where I could get one, or had an extra to sell, let me know!

Mouser should be legit. Do they say “CEN” at they top?

Junk trunk is out of stock and its killing me. I’m reallt pumped to build these two. Did you opt for the 1/8th connections too?

Nice! Hoping the same for mine!

Ya Last I looked into building a wah between inductors and the enclosure it was just cheaper to buy a Crybaby and mod it as needed.

Ok got some proper readings tonight more and more convinced I have a fake 2n6027. Fixed the Depth knob after I found a bridge between two resistors. So thats good. But still no chop, I basically have a boost pedal right now. Q3-1= 6.8v with the rate pot @100% and 5v with it at 0% Q3-2=...

Call me crazy bit do you have MLC caps in the top right corner where the doc calls for 3mm LED’s??

Thanks for the response! I will try that out tonight and go over it with a fine tooth comb!

Anyone have any input on this one? I have ordered a new 2n6027 and 2n5089 from mouser, I’m hoping that is the issue.

I forgot a 2.2nf cap. And 2 b5k pots somehow. Oh well ordered 4 more pcbs so I can pur another big tayds order in. No sense in making small ones 😎

I’m having the same issue with mine. Is your depth knob acting like a reverse volume knob? I suspect a fake 2n6027 with mine. I have a central brand one on order now. Where did you source your transistors?

So my woodpecker build has been my first non functioning pedal. I get a signal in bypass mode, and when effect is engaged. But it’s just a dry signal. Level knob works as intended, depth knob is a volume knob but in reverse, and the switch and rate have no effect. After some digging...

This one is a gift for my buddies birthday coming up. He’s loved the Simpsons pedals I’ve ben doing and I know he’s been eyeing a Benson preamp lately. Hopefully he digs it as much as I do! https://ibb.co/3fRtPGd https://ibb.co/pdswwys https://ibb.co/y80k3t7

Not too much worse. DC jack is a little tight, but I use the big ones. A little research made it easy, as I almost ordered the wrong caps. The 1uf’s are not film or electrolytic but MLC caps. After reading some others mistakes on here, I knew what not to do and it was a breeze.
