    Op-Amp Muffs (No, Not That One)

    yeah idk why, massively overhyped imo. probably because the enclosures are big and pretty, sometimes with an aesthetic very similar to the og that it’s taken circuit design cues from. and they do look good, i love big box enclosures and i’d totally buy one if the circuit wasn’t so meh.

    Op-Amp Muffs (No, Not That One)

    ok so i finally got around to this one a couple weeks ago. holy crap. it’s the best opamp muff or fuzz i’ve tried yet. i was suspicious of the npn Ge addition, but turns out it’s awesome. and a heckin loud output. nothing i had tried previously could beat an og opamp muff, but this one does...

    Friggin Mouser.

    i’m curious about this, cos i’ve noticed zero change in what i can or cant get from mouser since they opened an office in australia. regardless, every order has always been picked and packed from mouser at mansfield, tx, usa and gets here very quickly (less than 7 days), so i guess i just...

    question on fuzz face turret layout

    +1 breadboard the circuit. tbh breadboarding is actually easier than building a pedal of the same circuit. there’s no solder involved, so it’s really really really easy to fix an error. start with an LPB-1 and then go from there.

    Mahayana IC

    TL072 LF353 NE5532 LM1458 4558 literally any dual opamp will work. (personally i wouldn't bother with the OPA2134 for a drive circuit) as mentioned above, if you use an 8-pin IC socket (or build the circuit on a breadboard) you can then audition any one of these opamps to determine which you...

    Don't forget to change your strings!

    depends on the instrument and use case. - for live, usually ill let a single set do x2 shows, depending on how far between, although ive managed to get up to 3 shows out of a set (Elixirs, which could probably do more but breaking strings live is unacceptable). - for rehearsals, however long...

    Ferrite Beads?

    https://www.taydaelectronics.com/axial-ferrite-bead-76-ohm.html im guessing these will probably do it

    What’s on *YOUR* workbench?

    yeah damn thanks for bringing this one to my attention, now i'm gonna have to breadboard it 🥵

    What’s on *YOUR* workbench?

    1) breadboarded the expandora today. wish i had time to do a capture of this thing, cos heck me dead, it’s so sick. was surprised, it really is that versatile. ‘forbidden mode’ (lol) is awesome. satisfyingly thicc blistering distortion/fuzz. drop G# was fun. it also takes a boost/drive quite...

    Carbon Black Fuzz Transistor Bias and Fuzz Control Question

    no worries, we all have our errors 🤙

    Carbon Black Fuzz Transistor Bias and Fuzz Control Question

    this will definitely fuck up Q3's idle bias. once you've corrected this, check Q3c again. shouldn't matter at all. doesn't matter. 100n is 100n, they should perform the same in this circuit.

    Carbon Black Fuzz Transistor Bias and Fuzz Control Question

    yeah something's going on, you should be able to dial it around 4.5v (although it's a taste thing, i prefer around 5v) what value is the bias trimpot? we will need clear, in-focus, detailed photos of both sides of the board/build to determine this.

    Where are the knobs?

    regrettably, tayda. everywhere else just wants to fuck me with unreasonable shipping charges.

    No sound on first stripboard fuzz attempt

    +1 this is how the jack needs to be hooked up: also - from the photos, it doesn't appear that all of your ground wires have continuity with each other. they should. - great way to do this is to ensure that all ground wires meet at the input jack sleeve.
