Thank you. I really appreciate you taking the time to write this. Your right, it's definitely time to be with the family. Right now I am still in that shock phase. We where really close, and I have a lot going on, so my brain can't really process it or accept it right now. I get what you mean...

I am going to suspend this project for a while. My grandma passed away on Wednesday and I'm a mess :( I am pretty busy so I won't get to the ID for a while. I do want to keep working on it, but now is not the time.

Thank you for your kind words. I appreciate it. Best wishes to you and your family too. Sorry you are going through something similar.

Alright.

I can't post for a while. Grandma's dying and life is busy. :(

Benny profane is right. Plus you might damage your components if you are new to soldering and you desolder them.

Yeah plugging the op amp in probably crapped it out. You need to get new ones. Every leg of the IC has a specific function and sometimes a component, so if it's backwards you probably fried it. There is no sense in doing anything else until your op amps are replaced.

I agree. Part of the idea for this discussion thread is suggestions. If somebody wants to contribute something, I would be more than happy to add it. Right now I just got to gradually build it. I think the next topic for the ID will be basic component types and how they work generally and how...

Sounds like a great idea!

I like the grittier tone of the fatbee. Watch the Andy demos video on it. sounds super good. Real gritty and it sounds great with the Gain pretty high. If you want a great smooth distortion sound change to the neck pickup. I'm impressed! Sounds great!

I agree completely Big Monk. It could be potentially difficult to weed through and find information. This is opposite of what I intended for the database. I don't know exactly how I would go about forming an external database or wiki. I don't have the resources for it. Right now the ID is in a...

This thread is for anything relating to the Information database. The information database will be referred to as ID for short in this thread. The purpose of this thread is to ask questions about information on the ID. If I can't help you, I will try to get someone with more experience and...

Category 1: Transistor Biasing And HFE One of the best sources for info about HFE is Chuck D. Bones thread on it, titled What's all this HFE stuff about? On this thread, Chuck gives a great explanation on HFE, and goes into some detail about biasing...

Please don't comment or start a discussion on this thread. An information database discussion thread is intended for comments or discussions. I am going to create an Information Database (or ID for short) that offers an accessible and easy way to get information on a multitude of projects and...

Bewildered laughs and HVAC advice are definitely good contributions. You seem to excel at building pedals! :)

I've been thinking, what can I contribute? How can I help this community with my limited knowledge? Well I know I can't help all that much other than a quick comment or build report, but I'm learning a lot everyday because of very generous and knowledgeable people on the forum. While I was...

I don't really think you are being snarky at all. I think you are just trying to reach logical conclusions, and I appreciate that. I could always ask him what he's doing for the germanium transistors. All I had to do was ask when the kits where coming out and he gave me a time and every single...

That's what I was thinking. He sources high quality and trusted brand's parts. He might be able to do it. Also the fuzz faces have an impedance booster circuit that utilizes a transformer that's out of stock all the time, but he would have to do an entirely new pcb layout if he excluded that.

they name the germanium version. There already is a silicon version for some of the circuits, so why would they call it the germanium circuit name specifically instead of the silicon circuit name?

What do you mean silicon?
