The placebo rumor is based on the promise to improve the fidelity of tube hifi amplifiers, which is nonsense.

I have an old Roland Bolt 30 amp with very special (aka rare aka expensive) RCA 7591A output tubes. These are 6L6 with a different pinout. These boogers started to rattle. I bought 4 rings and use 2 on every output tube. Works for me! ( Okay, okay i could rewire the tube sockets and buy a set of...

Why are the in- and output on the breakout board on the wrong side. You always have to cross wires.

I socketed the 3.3n and the 68n caps. I tried the Analogman Beano Boost values which are 5.6n up to 22nF. This concentrates the Range more in the mids. Maybe i try another cap over the output to smooth it out. I think the silicone tranny makes it a bit raspier than the Ge of the Beano Boost.

After cleaning i would change the elkos first.

I was shocked when i looked at the Canis (I was a wolf in the Forest). Its quite identical to the wellknown Barber Direct Drives (Candid Drive). Did anybody check them out side by side? I only see additional hard clipping diodes on the Candid. My plan now is to try some hardclippers on the Canis...

There is a nice tutorial by Josh from JHS in youtube about explaining and modding the FF. That brought me into diy pedals.

I had the same issue with blue colored led when i used the shorter wire as cathode. I did not solder it, because i had to check the length out of the box first. The advantage of the clear led is that can check the size of the plates for a double check.

short the wires on the large plate and you are good to go!

Here is the concept for neck humbucker https://forum.seymourduncan.com/forum/the-pickup-lounge/6203407-de-mud-mod

Great write-up on the mod, Michael. The cap part is also known as the De-mud Mod and was used on 4 conductor humbucker in the neck of a Les Paul. Most folks used a handy .047 from a strat or a .022 uF cap from the existing stock circuit, but could not use the neck tone pot after that. Most folks...

@Robert If you rework documentions, please think of Jump Drive. It's still missing the schematic. Thanks!

Are you sure that the black wire at the footswitch has a good connection?

You don't use your yoga mat too often, I presume ?

I measure each resistor before. So there is no problem to find a suitable one in the stash.

In my book the FX loop master vol only helps me to use the stage settings (which sound good) to practise room and home volume.

You could shorten the black input and out wires, so that they are close to the enclosure sides.

With a couple of part and value changes a Rat schematic makes a great and versatile Distortion. I would use the Helios pcb and mod it with a different IC, different diodes and different filtering.

Over the top fuzzy with the knob on 10 (=1k resistor). i liked it on 8 (=820 ohm resistor).
