The comment in that thread about it running on 1.5v battery made me curious. The song came out in '69, so if some guy the other guitarist knew, wired a diy circuit into the tele, it would have come from an earlier source. Here is a very similar 3 transistor version from a different magazine...

In this post, they seem to think it's a Fancy Fuzzbox. https://www.tdpri.com/threads/my-correspondence-with-norman-greenbaum-re-his-tone-on-spirit-in-the-sky-he-played-a-tele.1136821/page-2 "It can be found as "Fancy Fuzzbox" in any of the "101 Electronics Projects" magazines from 1970 to...

Gibson briefly made some stuff with a builtin Fuzztone. It's kinda farty, maybe it was based on that

Exactly. Everything they are doing is not about running the government but destroying it. It has been stated time and time again.

No, I never did. Mine still has the rasp

You could try the blueberry mod, or what ever it's called.

Isn't this what AI is good for these days. Just vibe code it :p

I think this is a really good answer for this specific use case of mlcc...

Just curious if those were smd or thru hole?

I haven't either but I was under the impression that the higher the value the more microphonic and by the time we get to higher values that may be more microphonic we use film, so that's typically why it's a non-issue

Would it be fair to say that.... Ideally film would be preferred in 99% of the use cases we care about in the pedal building world but realistically can't affordably be made for higher and lower capacities, so therefore we use mlcc for lower and electrolytic for higher value?

Yes, but the reason it keeps getting asked is because there doesn't seem to be any straight answers. It's always, "i use this and it's works fine" or "try it and see". There is nothing wrong with experimentation but, I think the question that is being asked is more like.... what are the...

I've always read that the super low ESR is why they are used for power to ground filtering, especially on opamps.

I've never seen whatever you are talking about. Do you have an example?

They regularly have multiple skus of the same item. It baffled me for a long time.and then I just accepted that life is like that. 😁

I use a combination of leads and bridging. Bridging is usually only to the next pad over. It gets really blobby if you try to do more than one

Breadboard a simple buffer and alligator clip to an open jack, maybe?

I bend mine all the time. They don't break very easily. Here is one I bent just to lower the knob a bit to look better in a 1590b

It's an early-ish one from about 83 that is extremely broken in. And just because I think it sounds good doesn't mean it actually does, but it definitely makes me want to keep playing. I'm just playing around the house so what do I know 😁 I think the hi cut switch on the TM is really what makes...
