I'd leave the bottom open and stick that on my wall.

Look forward to seeing what you come up with!

This is the main jammer! Balaguer Select-Custom Espada with an Evertune bridge. It's a dream.

One skill I'd love to learn is converting schematics to breadboard or PCB. One of these days I'll have timeeeeee.

@almondcity @Feral Feline I've never seen one in person before so this is super helpful. On another note, does multi-turn mean they are more 'dial-in-able' than the standard trimmers we are used to that have about as much turn as a normal pot?

Shit that’s great. Are they short enough to not hit the enclosure along side regular PCB mount pots or did you have to bend em sideways?

GuitarPCB intermittently has through-hole J201s. Keep an eye on this page: https://guitarpcb.com/product/jfet-j201/

Seems promising as long as the legs can reach the pot spacing!

Did you just bend the legs out to hit the spacing of the pads for PCB-mount pots?

I figure a couple header pins will stand it off the PCB as well.

I’ve considered it for sure, I’m just happy to pay for them if someone else makes them or has any ideas.

I like to do this from time to time if I'm doing a combo build and I want to hide some of the controls internally. Has anyone come up with a clever way of fitting the trimmer to the spaced 16mm PCB mount pot holes that isn't just putting a wire out to the 3 legs? I'm looking for something a...

And to answer your question, the likelihood of a resistor value not being available is usually due to its rarity in use. There are various reasons for this. It could be that the person(s) who designed the circuit used a trimmer to find what sounded perfect to them, which was 19k, so they used...

Yes you can stick resistors together in combination to add up to a value that you need (resistors in series add up). It's worth noting that resistors have tolerances. Tayda carbon film resistors have a 5% tolerance. 5% of a 20k resistor is a 1k tolerance one way or the other, so you may measure...

I'd avoid ebay wherever possible. Some folks on here will find reputable sellers on there, but it takes looking through reviews etc. If the price or the availability seems to good to be true, it likely is. For through-hole J201s check out GuitarPCB. For pre-soldered SMD on a board you can get...

And one limited note on the 1n4448. It looks like the 4148 is an option here. Socket and try! https://www.diystompboxes.com/smfforum/index.php?topic=18820.0

I'm not familiar with this circuit, but if you need to put together a 19k resistor, you could throw a 16k and 3k in series.

I think itd be beyond my skill set at this point but I appreciate the offer.

Is that magic eye setup the same thing Shadow Hills uses on their outboard gear?

If you want to go all DIY, you can go all PedalPCB with something like the Son of Ben into a Unicab. Add your headphone amp and you're in business! https://www.pedalpcb.com/product/sobpreamp/ https://www.pedalpcb.com/product/unicab/
