    Stereo Volume Pedal Questions

    I am using the Boss SDE3000 to do wet / dry / wet with 3 amps. I want a stereo volume pedal to control the volume of the left and right ‘wet’ amps, to control the volume of the delays effectively. I know someone who uses the Lehle one but it is expensive! Not a big deal but I don’t like the look...

    Aion Solaris and Effects Layouts Prismatic with XTS Mod

    I compared the real XTS with my build today. The mods implemented to the Prismatic PCB pretty much nails it. Two things we noticed was the 400 on mine adds more low/bass frequencies than the XTS, and the Q on the XTS is a bit tighter on all the frequencies. There are a couple things I can think...

    Aion Solaris and Effects Layouts Prismatic with XTS Mod

    Thank you! Haha, maybe, but this specific pedal would not have been possible without you. Figuring out which parts to substitute, and with what was way over my head. Anyway, too late now!

    Aion Solaris and Effects Layouts Prismatic with XTS Mod

    This is my first build report since last summer. Starting in July I was basically working 2 jobs through November, or at least a job-and-a-half most days. Sometime in October I had things in stride and realized I had time to squeeze in a bit of pedal building. Then I got hit by a car while...

    Tonebender MKii Silicon vs Carbon Black (EQD Black Ash)

    Interesting. Looks great! How does a stock carbon black and a mkii tone bender sound in comparison?

    DEMO Tape Delay mkII (with Envelope Controlled Modulation and Tails Time)

    Wow, this sounds great. I feel like I am late the party here, but you designed this circuit? And it's based on a tape delay sound like the Echoplex?

    Stock GE7 to XTS Version?

    I spent a little bit of time comparing the Boss to this one I’ve finished. What I forgot about on the Boss one is that some of the middle sliders get really cocked wah sounding at extremes up and down settings. This one I have finished doesn’t do it as much. Maybe some of the mods to the Effects...

    Cool, thanks. As I assumed, not available in California

    Removing Powder Coat

    Thanks, I think one of my neighbors will have some kind of electric sander I can borrow/use. As for any deviation of the shape it’s just for me so I’d be fine with that. I started with some sandpaper by hand and the edges were exposed pretty easily, but I can see it will take a lot of elbow...

    Removing Powder Coat

    I have a Tayda enclosure that I want to remove the powder coat from. I saw in the DIY powder coat thread acetone and an orbital sander was mentioned. Anyone have any other suggestions?

    Tone Pot on Guitar Question

    Haha, I’ll try to get to is soon! I’ve been spending any free time I’ve had actually playing the guitar 😂 Excited about the new look with the new pickguard and new strings

    Oh ok, thanks, I will check that out.

    Tone Pot on Guitar Question

    I also got my C1M from G&L if I remember correctly. On yours, does turning the Bass pot down also lower the volume a bit toward the full rotation? Mine does and it was like that when I first did the mod. I have never had an opportunity to check an actual G&L wired like this so I don't know if it...

    Tone Pot on Guitar Question

    I'll open it back up and check if something is touching something it shouldn't.

    Tone Pot on Guitar Question

    I have an old Squier Strat that a couple years ago I changed the original pickups and pots, and wired it to the G&L PTB. This week I replaced the pickguard. Now the “T” (treble) tone pot reaches it maximum brightness at about 8 on the knob, from there going to 10, it gets darker on the rest of...

    sunflower fuzz

    Ah ha, yes. I wasn't thinking about that. Don't try 18V with the Sunflower!

    sunflower fuzz

    You can use any voltage you like but the bigger the voltage, the larger the size of the part will be I believe. For a pedal which runs at 9v as long as it is alove 9v you are good. I personally now use all caps above 18v, usually 50V-100V, in case I want to try it at 18v instead on 9v. Which I...

    Stock GE7 to XTS Version?

    I am coming back to this thread to say that I have, after a long pedal building hiatus, built the Effects Layouts Prismatic with part subs to make it an XTS version. Seems to operate like the actual XTS one I borrowed last year. I will compare it to my BOSS GE7 but I am already pretty familiar...

    125B Effects Layouts Prismatic

    Here is one I created for the Effects Layouts Prismatic. This one has a hole for a larger external nut 9v jack so you might want to make it smaller depending on what you are using. I have assembled it and works! https://drill.taydakits.com/box-designs/edit?id=18257
