    Micro Bassman Build

    I missed this when you first posted it. This is awesome. Purple is my favorite color, coincidentally.

    Dude. This is awesome. I love the whole art aesthetic. It works so well. The control labels are just *chef's kiss*

    Informat / 1981 DRV build

    You should post it in the troubleshooting section if you need another set of eyes. I bet it's something you can fix pretty easily.

    Informat / 1981 DRV build

    I don't remember there being a big jump in the volume, but it did get louder than I expected compared to a Rat with the stock 1n4148 clipping diodes. I'd check it out and get back to you, but It got traded off for another pedal.

    Radio Pickup on a Black Ash Clone?

    I've picked up radio signals while messing with tonebender and fuzz face circuits on my breadboards. Usually it's when the fuzz is cranked, but my guitar volume is turned down. My solution has been to put a small cap, like 50pf or maybe 100pf, on the circuit input to ground. I'm not sure if that...

    EOL parts thread

    Does anyone have a convenient way to breadboard with these smd parts or is it just a case of using an adapter board pcb to mount them on a breadboard?

    Sunflower fuzz

    Very nice. The gold leaf is a very cool touch. Did you clear over it? Your friend is going to love it.

    2N2222A = 2N2222 (more or less?)

    2n222As have more Attitude (They have a little more gain than 2n2222, but are probably interchangeable without much difference)

    Disarray (Suhr Riot Reloaded)

    How are you securing that bypass board in the enclosure? Is it just sitting on top of the switch with the wires to the main pcb holding it in place?

    Aurum Drive (Friedman Golden Pearl)

    The graphics turned out great! I really gotta figure out the whole graphic design and UV printing thing.

    Disarray (Suhr Riot Reloaded)

    Nice and clean! I wonder if that fizzy tone is because the op amps are distorting before the signal gets sent to the diodes. I was messing around on my breadboard a while back and built something like a crunchbox. You can change the sound a lot by changing the high pass filter on that first op...

    How to get rid of this high pitch oscillation in a fuzz face?

    If the transistors have a lot of gain you can put a small (47 ohm or 100 ohm) resistor between ground and the electrolytic cap hooked to the fuzz control to stop the oscillation.

    Blue Shoe. How to avoid 6 knobs jamming into each other on 125B top?

    Slightly overdrill the pot holes, fit the pcb to the pots, then spread the pots out evenly before you solder them in. If you want to make it easier use a smaller diameter knob like these control knobs: https://www.taydaelectronics.com/control-black-knob-16-x-14-mm-2005.html

    DEMO Vanquisher Fuzz

    That looks great! Is that a power mosfet on the board?

    Fantastic job!

    This Week on the Breadboard: Phase 90

    The bigger caps for a more vibey sound is really interesting to me. I built the Circulator a while back and while it was cool I wondered what I could do to make it a little thicker. Even though it's a not a jfet based phaser, I figured I could do something similar with the 2.2nf caps. I think I...
