    Low Tide high noise floor

    Hey guys, I recently finished this build and I really like the pedal, but the noise floor seems unusually high. As soon as I turn the pedal on, white noise is very audible. I’m using a CS7 which has been working fine for years. I’m wondering if I might have a bad cap or if I didn’t adjust the...

    King Tone Guitar Switch

    From the Kingtone picture I don’t see where the inductor would be, assuming it’s a 1.5H inductor: it would be pretty bulky. So maybe it’s even simpler than the varitone?

    King Tone Guitar Switch

    According to Reddit it's basically a varitone. The picture seems to confirm that. Unverified though! $99 seems pretty high for what this is.

    Low Tide faceplate LED bezel?

    Couldn’t find the answer on the forum and the build reports I found all raw dogged the LED. I tried fitting different LED bezels I have but none of them would fit. Well, one did but the shaft is too long and would short the LED pads on the board. So, @Robert which bezel fits the faceplate?
