    1590XX VFE Klein Bottle V3.2

    Whoops, I don't know any good file hosting sites anymore. I'll do some googling tomorrow and post a new link.

    oops, you are correct, will edit. thanks

    1590XX VFE Klein Bottle V3.2

    my pleasure, you will probably want to widen all the holes slightly, especially if you're getting the enclosure painted and printed, or be prepared with a drill and step bit, sorry it's not more exact.

    What strings do you guys use?

    Thanks, I'm going to give the 12-52 set a try since they have higher tension that round wound. Since the 11's are working in C# the 12's should be plenty in C.

    What strings do you guys use?

    NYXL 13-56 - C Standard tuning on my SG, after 15 years playing the upright bass they feel fine and keep good tension with the low tuning. My arms still look like twigs. Thinking about trying flats. Any recommendations for something that maintains a bit of brightness?

    1590XX VFE Klein Bottle V3.2

    Here's the template I used: Tayda KB Drill Template I ended up widening all of the pot and toggle holes one step with my step bit to make it easier to get everything lined up and in the enclosure for soldering, but it might work as is if you're superduper patient. Example of my build here and a...

    Klein Bottle and Scabbard

    I used the untested drill template from the VFE group buy thread first and it wasn't a great fit for my graphics layout and would've been pretty difficult to fit the foot switches in. I made adjustments for the one pictured and still had to widen the holes for the pots a bit to get everything...

    Klein Bottle and Scabbard

    I really wanted the KB a year ago when I was messing around with weird ambient type stuff and weirded classical covers, but I've gone back to big dumb power chords and simple riffs blasted with fuzz and no longer really feel the need for parallel mixing. That said, it's a cool pedal and does a...

    JBF vs non-JBF Capacitors

    Check the data sheets/specs but I think those are both pretty big for PCB builds, unless you have space for mojo. Edit: just looked at the screen shot again 10mm lead spacing, so assume big caps

    What's in the mailbox? 📬 📦

    USPS came through on a Sunday? with my friends from CCCP. When the zombie apocalypse comes some people might have more bullets, but I'll be flush with soviet surplus transistors, now I just need a solar/wind farm to keep the amps running. Mostly NPN, Si K315B, Ge MP38A, and GT404B, then smaller...

    CONTEST Hey Buddy, Built Anything Lately?

    I did a combo General Tso/Median compressor with relay bypass and an order switch, with the intention of adding a jmk paralyzer board and series/parallel switch. I decided to play with it while waiting on jmk and realized they're both great pedals on their own and are stupid as a combo and I...

    Why do you post a 'Build Report'?

    My wife appreciates my builds or pretends to convincingly, but doesn't understand the differences other than size(haha) and parts count, or why I need so many pedals that are all fuzz.

    Bring out yer Diptrace

    I'm grateful for the help and I'll take any criticism and suggestion. I wasn't trying to sound like I had it all figured out, just to say how well everything cleaned up after the suggestions, reading it back I can see how it comes off cocky though, I do not feel that way and know that I'm far...

    Bring out yer Diptrace

    Thanks for the help everyone, I've been watching youtube diptrace tutorials but they haven't been audio focused, just getting an assembly together. I learned how to use vias this morning and I think I've cleaned things up pretty well, but I'm going to try to optimize component placement some...

    Bring out yer Diptrace

    yep, that was part of the tornado of destruction I made adding one resistor and swapping 2 patterns.

    Bring out yer Diptrace

    Thank you! Man, I made one last minute addition and two part swaps on the schematic before converting it to PCB and totally wrecked my connections in the boost circuit. Still passed all the verifications because they were connected to something, but not the right things. I would not have caught...

    Bring out yer Diptrace

    Thanks very much, I think I fixed everything you outlined except didn't see the path to be shortened, but I'm still heavily under the influence of dayquil. I used 4 spoke thermals without doing any research, I'm guessing there are some sort of guidelines for what to use when if I do a little...

    Bring out yer Diptrace

    Ok, well I got sick and the circuit went through about 10 more iterations, but I got way better at diptrace schematic drawing, and schematics in general. Here's my first PCB attempt, from what I've read I think I should do a copper pour on the top layer too, but I left it off here so you can see...

    General Tso's Compressor Mute/Buffer

    I recently put one in a combo build using relay bypass boards and didn't need the buffer function, so I skipped the mute and buffer pads and it works fine. I think though if you want those functions you have to ditch the breakout board and wire it as it's shown in the build doc. Edit...
