Hi all, I just boxed up a Vandal From Hell from them recently and I love it, it's brutal (once you boost its input a bit). Small nitpick, you need to bend one resistor a tiny bit to have enough space for the 220u cap next to it. The pedal was a tight fit into the 125b, but now I'm happy that...

Oh forgot to mention something. Today the Boogie Monster kit arrived. And to my surprise it didn't contain the SMD J201s but instead Musikding put TO-92 J201s with an "F" marking on them and also a string saying "BAI7", or maybe "BAT7" or "BA17". And they measure at a bit higher Vp than the SMD...

Hi all! Thanks very much for all of your replies! I didn't expect that many! I'll take your suggestions to heart and not worry so much about the JFETs in the Boogie Monster. I checked and found some sockets that I can use in my tool box, so I'll use them here for the transistors so I can swap...

Hi all! I'm gonna get started on the Boogie Monster soon, tomorrow I suppose. I have a cheap transistor tester that shows Vg(off) and Idss and about 20 J201s (SMDs on adapters). So far I measured 10 and they have Idss from 1.1 to 1.4mA and Vg from 553 to 799mV. I read a post somewhere here on...

Thank you for the information Bricksnbeatles, much appreciated. Will do it like you said. Kind regards, Seb

Hi all, I'm building the PedalPCB Closed Circuit at the moment. I was about to solder the caps when I realized that I'm apparently one 100nF (=0.1uF) short. The Musikding kit contains four 100nF caps. It looks to me like a fifth 100nf was not sent because the BOM contained in the PedalPCB build...

Hi all, I boxed up a Thumb Sucker yesterday. Easy build, didn't take too long, no problems. It's low noise. The bright switch difference is subtle, but when I turn it off I miss it immediately :) All knobs work. With the release knob it is a bit hard to tell. But I found that when it's CCW and...

Yes, exactly, that's the plan. I'd just like to know if I got this correct: Threshold pot: 1M between lugs 1 and 2 Release pot: 370k between lugs 1 and 2 (because in PedalPCB layout there's a 100k in series in front of the pot) Attack pot: 0Ohm between lugs 1 and 2 (fully counter clockwise)

Hi jimilee, it's not about taste, I'd just like markings on the three extra pots of the Thumbsucker that get me to the values of Merlin's Engineer's Thumb 2 knob pedal.

Hi all! Beginner here. I have a Thumbsucker kit to build and to make my life easier I want to mark the stock settings of the Engineer's Thumb on the Threshold, Release and Attack pots on the decal (with a red dot or line in the 1 to 10 scales surrounding these three knobs). With "stock...
