    Zener Diode repair (learning opportunity)

    Anything is possible, but exposing it to more than 22V very unlikely. I don't think that happened before i put it on the shelf, although it had been sitting for a bit. I am surprised that the solder popped so easily unless it got hot enough to loosen a weak solder joint or was arcing (if thats...

    Stacked Pedal Idea (need expert advice)

    I use it for lead tones usually at about 10:00 Level, 10:00 Tone, 10:00 Drive, and 9:00 Blend (on the OD side of the OD/DS Blend pot), but also can get really saturated on the DS Side of the blend which i use sparingly but effective when needed. The TS in front just makes it a bit thicker and...

    Zener Diode repair (learning opportunity)

    Noticed odd behavior (cyclical popping) from an EHX Silencer Pedal, when plugged into DC Power Supply. Disassembled, removed old batter, installed new battery, reconnected guts of pedal and seemed to work off battery power. I did notice that "electronics smoke" smell upon opening the pedal...

    Stacked Pedal Idea (need expert advice)

    I am pretty sure this was the first guitar pedal i ever bought, i remember thinking "wait, Overdrive, and Distortion, how can I go wrong?" I regretfully sold it... and later replaced it because i missed it so much. That is probably why its tone is imprinted on my senses and emotions!... was...

    Stacked Pedal Idea (need expert advice)

    I appreciate the advice. Who doesn't need another TS Clone right?! Sounds like a good one to start with as a first build!

    Stacked Pedal Idea (need expert advice)

    I don't believe in reinventing the wheel, but when it comes to distortion/OD sounds, I consistently gravitate back to a stacked TS-808 clone (Behringer) into my 90's Boss OS-2. Something about stacking those two circuits just hits a sweet spot for my ears in the OD range as well as the...

    Imagine DD-1 overdrive repair (HELP!)

    @music6000 I recently picked this pedal up out of curiosity, and frankly because it looks really cool. I am a big fan of the basic black/white/primary(&secondary) color palate on musical equipment like this. It seems like there is very limited information on this pedal since South Wave Audio...

    Imagine DD-1 overdrive repair (HELP!)

    Having nearly the exact issue with mine, sounds like there is some weak conductivity between the signal path and ground, comes through as white noise even when bypassed (footswitch), which is strange to me if this is a true bypass configuration. Was thinking about replacing the footswitch to...
