They both look awesome. I'm in the same boat. The Simulcast and Duocast have been sitting on the bench for well over a year half finished. I finally finished the Simulcast this weekend and should have the Duo done tomorrow. So far I'm digging the Simulcast a lot. What hfe is the transistor you...

@MichaelW Even though I read this build report back in February I made the same mistake. I ordered a BB2 enclosure from Tayda thinking that was what I needed for this build. Even weirder, I also got Orange Sand Texture!!! I installed the regulator laying down, do you think I can squeeze it in...

@Fingolfen Curious if you ever got to try this with a JRC4741D chip and how it compared to the LM348?

How do you like those daughter boards with the LEDs? Probably works good for your B builds since you always moved the LED to the side of the footswitch. Do you have to jumper the existing spot on the board?

Cool! I'm glad those jacks worked out for you. I thought of you and your top mount B builds when I first saw them. I still haven't used the ones I bought a while back. Saving them for when I get in a jam and really need them!

Thanks! That's what I was thinking since I can't easily find an 8.1k in any brand or wattage.

Were you able to source an 8.1k resistor or just go with an 8.2?

No doubt you did look into it. But I was mostly joking! Amazing build with a lot of thought put into it. I'll keep an eye out for "DB 2.0" (Now with Bluetooth!)

What? No bluetooth?

I'm kinda disappointed there is no shot of the back of the board. I need those solder joints man, I need it.

Do you use an instrument or line level input on your interface with the cab sim pedal?

I utilize a lot of speed holes in my builds. Definitely makes the pedals sound better.

Cool. Got it. Now which Forum is the appropriate place to create a pinned post with these guidelines?

So in order: 1) @Betty Wont's Approval 2) "Tight Soldering!" 3) "Sick Enclosure!!" 4) Sending @MichaelW on a two week tangent where he builds every variation of a pedal or brand in record time. (And records demos of them.) Sound right?

Now I have to ask... what's first?

I was like "yeah that enclosure looks good but man, that soldering is on point." I must be getting old.

He was a famous user of the EM in the Police days. Whenever I think of the Electric Mistress I think Summers, Mascis and Gilmour. The Filter Matrix mode was on the original pedal and I agree it's not terribly usable. As per usual I'm very jealous of your build! Great job!

What gauge and where are you getting it from?

I've been waiting for you to get to this one. One of the best Boss OD pedals in my opinion. Buss wire??? I've been using resistor lead trimmings!!!

Honestly this build sounds a bit better than the original. I think Boss changed something over time but I had a really early model and it was super thin and bright sounding. It had that ice picky thing people talk about. However, all the clones I've built, while they definitely sound like a...
