    What made you a good guitar player?

    How do you straighten component leads?

    I had no idea this was even a thing. What else can I have printed by them cheaply that will help my building?

    How do you straighten component leads?

    These days they just break way to easily.

    How do you straighten component leads?

    That's cool.. I may have to figure out how to print this. I'm hearing some kind of smooth duck billed pliers can work.. I'm going to try and roll it under something flat too.

    How do you straighten component leads?

    I really don't care about doing this for pedal pcbs because it is not needed but Mojotone bends their amp capacitor and resistor leads to fit them in the cool partitioned plastic parts boxes they include with their kits. I want the wire leads to be perfectly straight to look good on the turret...

    Most authentic Boss SD-1?

    They don't all the way up because that's where I keep it on both. On the Uber everything is all the way up. On the Boss, I keep the level and tone all the way up and the gain from 0 to 9 o'clock. The Boss has way more gain. The levels seem to be the same. I haven't compared them with the...

    Most authentic Boss SD-1?

    Ok.. the results are in... I swapped the transistors out with a different pair of the same ones and it sounded the same so there is nothing wrong with the transistors. Funny thing is either way the pedal sounded better than I remembered but not as good as my new SD-1 by Boss. Not the new Waza...

    Most authentic Boss SD-1?

    I put them in wrong in the first pic.. it was from my original post about why it wasn't working. I had the input wired wrong too but quickly the great folks here got me fixed up. I haven't tried different transistors yet but I will do that and report back. I believe everything came from Tayda.

    Most authentic Boss SD-1?

    @music6000 do those transistors look like they could be the issue? It looks like everything else should be good.

    Most authentic Boss SD-1?

    I'll take another pic too... I think when that one was taken I had the input wired wrong and the transistors were in backwards. I was able to turn them around since I used sockets.
