Pot condoms

Glad to hear, I will post a video and pics in the coming days when I get a chance. Sounds killer otherwise.

Yes, it increases as the gain increases.

All knobs work as expected and the tone is very good. I understand that all drive pedals will add some noise (I have built a bunch), but this seems excessive. A couple of notes: 1) Bypass sounds fine with no extra noise, so I am assuming there is not a jack grounding issue, 2) I swapped the...

I think you will have better luck boxing it with the footswitch in the proper orientation. I would fix that before doing anything else, especially since it seems likely to be a switching issue.

Thats what I ended up using. Worked fine with no diodes as well. Thanks for the reply.

I don't have any. I could get some tomorrow at my local electronics shop, but I still have a few beers left and was hoping to finish it tonight. I have all the usual suspects, 4148, 4001, 5817, 4742. Would any of those be appropriate substitutions? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply.

Came to post same thing. Just so I'm clear, the treble is is an A100k?

Your board is 100% ok. Here is what I would do. Clean out the pads needed for the B2M with a solder sucker. Use a little piece of clipped lead from a resistor to make your connection by sticking both ends in the holes and solder as you normally would any component.

You 100% did nor solder one pin of the B100k pot. I think the FV-1 could be fixed. There are two spots that appear to have bridges. Suck those out with a solder sucker and reflow. Even though it's ugly, it will probably work. Anyways, good luck. I threw away a couple of FV-1 boards when I...

Looks like you might have a short between the red and black wires right above the FV-1 from a strand of wire. Also looks like you might have missed soldering a lug on one of the pots. FV-1 soldering looks a little rough.

What can I use? I have all the usual suspects.

Well?

Thanks so much Chuck. I had already biased to 9v after poking around on the web. If it's not too much trouble, would you explain why most boosts bias to 1/2 of Vcc? Thankd. I am trying to learn.

You need to clean that board with some isopropyl to get that flux off. Some of the solder joints look a litle dodgy, especially to the 10:00 of the B100k pot. That ends my troubleshooting skills.

I don't know. My playing has been a lot more metal since I got vaccinated.
