Hi @Robert Working on my next order and wanted to ask about the transistors and ICs for the new Quarry Fuzz. When you have a chance, can you let me know what these are for parts ordering? Thanks much!

Working on a build of the new offering Cast Iron Fuzz (Lollar Fuzz). Works in bypass but when effect engaged, the fuzz sounds great but is barely audible. Using A1015 transistors per the board. @Robert, when you have a chance, can you provide build docs, most notably the board components...

Would appreciate any help with wiring for the channel select side with 5 connections to the 3PDT footswitch. Thanks much!

I’m building the Emanating Fist Dope Priest where the BC549Cs are installed backwards. Only passes signal in bypass. Thanks for any help

Seasons Greetings! Thinking about the 410 Fuzz as a future build. For parts ordering purposes, what transistors go in Q1 & Q2? Thank you as always!

Would appreciate help with this morning’s attempt- the Aion Andromeda Deluxe (Nordland ODR-C). No signal when engaged except very faint what sounds like the working pedal but barely audible. Passes signal in bypass. LED is lit when pedal engaged. Green 3mm LED diodes in D4 & D5 light when...

Looking at building the Maximum Overdrive new offering. Tough locating a NJM5534D. Can anyone recommend a suitable substitute?

Having an issue with Sabbath Distortion and would appreciate helpful suggestions. LED lights; signal ok in bypass. Only getting a fizz (shhhhh sound like). All parts as indicated on BOM. The fizz has less volume when gain knob turned down, but volume knob has no effect on loudness of fizz...

As a lifelong comic book geek, I was inspired to build the Aionfx Cadmus (ZVEX Super Duper) in anticipation of the new Superman movie coming out this summer. Easy project, but then sometimes the more basic circuits sound great from my experience. This pedal fits that mold, and sounds more...

I’m wondering about the small eyelets/holes in the Nucleus. The traces appear connected and serve some function. Should these be used? There are 2 small points under the IC, and before I socket over this area, I want to make sure what to do. Thanks for any help!

With thanks to @Robert, wanted to post a build report for the Maven Overdrive. I wanted a Maestro Ranger OD when these were released a few years ago, but never pulled the trigger on one. From a first glance, I liked the aesthetic on the Maestro reissue pedals, and I tried to carry over that vibe...

I’m planning on making a Cameltoe clone with a 2 in 1 Aion Karkadann (Green Rhino) and Ample Alpaca (Red llama). Two questions: 1. Will connecting the Aion and PPCB 3pdt switch breakout boards for traditional 2 in 1 wiring per the wiki work ok given the Ample Alpaca is true bypass? 2. Can anyone...

Would the template from Gravitation Reverb work for Phantom Voltage, or are pots too wide set?

Hi all, grateful for any help. No effect when switching on Fat Piggy. LED is it, bypass signal ok. 9.76v on input, zero readings heading into/coming out of 3pdt. Second attempt for this build. I was putting in a new 3pdt on the first attempt and lifted a pad so purchased a new board. Got the...

One of the most rewarding things I’ve done since I began pedal building a few years ago is putting together pedals for a live rig board for Ron, one of the guitarists for the Eldorado Band. If you’re in the western PA area, check these guys out for some fun country/rock music...

Getting quite a few builds done 😀

I noticed that all Tayda pre-drilled, powder coated enclosures are now out of stock. I emailed Tayda, and Hugo advised I use the Drilling/UV printing service. I’ll give it a try, but so much easier being able to just order non-custom pre-drilled painted enclosures instead of using the new...

Working on the Tantric OD, and 150k trim pots are spec’ed. I can’t seem to find 150k trim pots for sale anywhere, so can I substitute another value? I also assume these are the 3362P trim pots, although not indicated.
