As someone who has the strymon deco, I give a hearty hell yes to a through zero flanger. I love the fact that it uses the relay being held down to activate the through zero mode

I just bought a propolis board and was thinking about breadboarding so i could add controls too. Really like that volume idea. Really cool builds

I've got a little baby magnifying glass with an LED, but I feel like I should look into getting something proper if I plan on messing around with more SMD parts. Any suggestions? Actual lighting is probably more important than the magnification aspect though.

Thanks for the responses, that was just what I needed to keep me from doing something dumb :) Correct caps to be ordered shortly! Can't promise I'm not going to try breadboarding this at some point though haha

How do you like those Lumberg jacks? Any space issues with top mounting them?

Thanks! Here's the album of the build, it was a blast to do and is truly a special guitar to me.

Abider build and my first attempt doing anything with SMD soldering. I learned some things! I definitely have room to improve on technique (not surprising), as the first J201 I tried (and pictured below) probably needs to be re-centered, as I don't think it's got a solid connection. It also...

I'd support you posting how to do it here!

So here's my newb question for the day (bonus point for context!): Can I sub a polarized 470n (or .47u if you're nasty) Electrolytic Cap for a film box one? The use case is in the Spirit Box, where there are 3 470n caps, of which I only have 1 WIMA 470n, but I have a few Wurth .47u 50v For my...

This pedal rips! Such a nice clarity to the overdrive, really great sound. I've included here a little hack that I use to make sure there's a little extra space between the pots and the board, utilizing a bit of little sticky notes. Also this green LED from Tayda is brighter than the sun. I'm...

Bummer, those Gorva's are super nice

That's awesome! What transistor did you end up using? I've been trying to decide which one I want to go with before diving in (I bought the black Gorva enclosure too, looks so rad)

I bought this one a few weeks ago and it's been doing a pretty good job so far: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07SHLS639/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Thanks!

This is build #5 overall (of Q-tine) and in order 3rd one that actually got boxed up. I decided to go premium with the copper hammer Tayda enclosure and drilled out the led hole for a bezel. I really really like the look and feel of this finish. LOVE LOVE LOVE this pedal. It sounds so good...

Screechy being the technical term of course, but basically what's going on is that when both sides are engaged (drive typically above 75%), and the boost knob is at full volume, there is a ton of high pitched squealing/kinda self-oscillation-esque sound as well. It's most pronounced using the...

For the record I did know who he was but when you're working the door you gotta stay entertained somehow

I used to work the door at Great Scott back about 8 years ago and I would ID him all the time. I think he was a little annoyed that I didn't know who he was but I found it hilarious to always check his ID Would love to build one of these some time

I've been needing to catch up on posting build reports, but whatcha gon' do? This was #2 in terms of boxing up but #3 overall. Short story, I love it. I bought this already knowing how much I like the original, which I have had on my board for a couple years now, and I can't tell the...

Looks like I just got some homework :D
