    Hi Chuck, OK. It's over a month since you gave this advice, but I had a couple of detours. First, given the complexity of the circuit and the biasing procedure -- I had bought both the Chop Shop V2 and this one at the same time, and I built the Chop Shop first. It's just as well, as I...

    What are the most rugged 1/4" jacks people are using?

    LMS?

    What are the most rugged 1/4" jacks people are using?

    Are there ones that are more rugged than the others? I just bought a few mono ones from Tayda, but they weren't SwitchCraft. What do people like?

    Where are people getting potentiometers?

    Ah! Just got the one I need there, plus some other things. Thanks!

    Where are people getting potentiometers?

    DigiKey doesn't seem to have the 16mm, right-angle, through hole potentiometers called for on the build sheets (I bought the Viceroy and Chop shop boards). I was able to get some from adafruit, but not a 10k linear-taper one, FWIW.

    I would like to read about this if you do!

    Ok. I think I have everything bought. My first pedal build. Wish me luck and thanks for the cool design. I can't wait to hear it!

    Whoops sorry! I was using my phone to read and I missed it. Thanks. Greatly appreciated!

    Thanks. What about the 2N5089? Is that more easily substituted?

    Can I ask about JFET equivalents for this circuit? I'm on the DigiKey website and PF5102 and 2N5089 are both discontinued. What alternates are suitable for this circuit?

    Why are JFETs such a Pain in the Ass?

    Thank you! This is very informative, in the most fun way.

    Thank you for explaining!

    Why are JFETs such a Pain in the Ass?

    That's fascinating. Do these JFETs have a use in the full on/full off mode of operation or are they primarily meant to be linear devices as used in these analog circuits? I guess what I'm asking is whether the manufacturer is making these for other purposes and the audio use case piggybacks on that?

    Why are JFETs such a Pain in the Ass?

    Another newbie question. Why is there such variation in performance of individual JFETs of the same part number? Is it that the production processes for these parts is older? We're in an era of billions of transistors on a chip, of very close tolerances...

    JFET Biasing - part 1

    Hey thanks I'll look for that!

    JFET Biasing - part 1

    Hi. Newbie here. This is a very educational thread! Two questions: Is there a part 2? I didn't find it, but maybe I missed it somewhere? Second question: how are you measuring Vp, Idss, etc? Is there a specific transistor tester you're using, or are you doing this in-circuit?
