    How do you install your footswitches ? What to do with the various rings ?

    The white washer could be a spacer for the inside. Other than that it goes in the jar with the 39 other ones. Much like the breakout boards they provide. Anyone want them let me know. Lock washer on the inside, metal washer on the outside. You can use the extra nut as a spacer as well. All...

    Favorite hard clipping overdrive?

    Thank you to everyone. The application will probably vary. He has a variety of amps. Mostly small tube amps. Maybe dead clean Roland jazz chorus, maybe a black face princeton. Several of you mentioned circuits I didn't even think of. I forgot about the crunchbox altogether. Good sounding and...

    Favorite hard clipping overdrive?

    This is not really a poll. Just looking for help picking a circuit for a friend. He wants me to build him a hard clipping overdrive. Any suggestion appreciated. Michael? You've already built almost everything LOL...thoughts?

    Sunflower fuzz

    It is really beautiful. I am interested in your foil technique. Adds depth to your art work.

    DEMO Paragon & Pauper 2023 Redux

    Another great demo Michael! I need to revisit my first few pedals as well. Bring them up to the current standard as it is easier to build and troubleshoot. As many pedals as you build, I highly recommend one of these: FR-301 Portable Desoldering Tool https://a.co/d/f7ad0s8 As well as this tip...

    High gain

    Great looking pedals! I am not a high gain player, but I definitely appreciate the sound and skill utilizing it. Check out Pedalpcb Brown Betty, and possibly the Tyrian distortion.

    Batch of Stratodrives ready to go...

    Here's my cheesy 50s marketing pitch. This is on a card in the box with the pedal: Take your sound into the stratosphere with the new Stratodrive! The Stratodrive features: •True bypass switching. •Plenty of head room with unity volume at 10 o clock. •Smooth, natural, soft clipping gain...

    Oh sorry. Yeah it is a modified Super Stevie. Which is essentially a modified Timmy itself. The boost being the main mod I've done on this. It changes the resistance to vref on the second op amp stage. This creates a boost in volume and depending on how much level and gain there is, it adds some...

    Took some pedals around to local stores and had a few people interested in these so I went ahead and made four more. We'll see how it goes.

    Tweedman presence control modification

    That's funny. I was just doing the same thing. I was going to try 3.9n and see how close that was.

    Tweedman presence control modification

    The volume and the treble could be concentrically stacked as they are both 250K. I kinda don't want to mix the volume control with a tone stack control. I like the idea of the presence and midrange stacked the best. I will have to do some experimenting/testing.

    Tweedman presence control modification

    Or perhaps fixed resistor across the 25k pot to get it's "seen" values closer to the original. However that would give it an audio taper affect. Not the worse thing to deal with.

    Tweedman presence control modification

    That's where I thought about tweaking the cap size to adjust it.

    Tweedman presence control modification

    A friend of mine wants me to make him this circuit. I made it in a 1590BB2 enclosure so I could bring the presents control onto the face and have plenty of room. He wants to see if I can squeeze it all in a 125b enclosure and keep the presents as an external control. I started thinking about the...

    Anybody want to show off their build collection?

    Not sure if I should get into it here but, made it a bit brighter by changing caps, and most importantly for the gimmick of it, Adding a resistor in series with the volume knob to lower the top end db. with changing the pot to a double C taper. This let's it get to unity gain immediately and...
