    Favorite/best ICs for Thermionic/DirtySanchez/Complex ODs?

    Thx guys I was just curious if 'chip rolling' would make any kind of a difference (or if anyone else has done it) with these Friedman circuits. I've heard distinct differences in Tubescreamers, thought I'd ask.

    Favorite/best ICs for Thermionic/DirtySanchez/Complex ODs?

    I got a better pedal platform amp recently, and that made all the difference in several guitarl pedals that I had shelved due to them sounding 'below mediocre' through my other amp. As such, I'm absolutely LOVING the PPCB Brown Betty and Complex ODs.. I tweaked the latter last for to replace a...

    Mojotone is selling pedal kits now

    Yeah, but........look at PastFX and anyone else who makes a CE-1/'Chorus Ensemble'-inspired pedal. Might as well complain about Ceriatone (or Germino) amps looking like Marshalls, or a half a milllion Tweed clones out there, while we'lre at it. The look is part of the package, and folks want the...

    How to mount these 9mm pots to a case

    Yeah, that's the most obvious and easiest option. Thought about that, but I know I'll want to tweak it more often than I want to open the case. That's totally on me and my itch to change it up. o_O

    How to mount these 9mm pots to a case

    Long story short/explanation: It's going to be a dirt pedal in a large case, and I'd like to put the Boost and Presence pots on the back with the in/out & power jacks. I'm trying to keep these pots low-profile - don't want regular knobs on the back, just something small, slightly recessed...

    How to mount these 9mm pots to a case

    Is it possible to mount these in a case? https://smallbear-electronics.mybigcommerce.com/single-gang-9mm-right-angle-pc-mount-w-knurled-plastic-shaft/ I want to use these as semi-set-and-forget trims for the back of a pedal, or (eventually) a Zvex Seek Wah clone. Don't want to use hot glue...

    What 'vibe pedals are folks building these days?

    I WAS looking at building the Photon, but it seems that the Silonex 7532 photocells are pretty much non-existent now. I have an older Easyvibe build that I was going to hand off to my cousin - if photocells are in short supply, I'll probably hold on to it. So what are folks building for...

    Nope - same pinout and everything. I'll report back with the results.

    2SK118Y Replacement?

    Had some time tonight to research it, and (oddly enough) it appears that the (older) SK30ATM-Y has the exact same specs as the 2SK118Y. I can pick up the former at Tayda - I'm going that route.

    2SK118Y Replacement?

    I've got an 'as-is' Boss CE-5 incoming, and the issue it's having is most likely due to the switching JFETs. The analog CE-5 uses two 2SK118Y JFETs, and I'm having some difficulty finding those. Is there an as-close-as-possible replacement for those? I'm afraid I'm not familiar with which...

    Knob quest: a smaller mini-chickenhead

    I know what the OP means. The Ibanez FL99 Classic Flange has smaller chicken-head knobs; like, smaller the ones that Smallbear or anyplace else sells. Wish you could get those aftermarket.

    Wampler Plexidrive - mid boost?

    Anyone know how to add (or adjust) the mids on the Wampler Plexidrive circuit? I know the new(ish) mini Plexidrive has the mids toggle - just curious if anyone knows where/how that is implemented. Thx!

    What's on the workbench?

    I’d be ok with that.

    Yep, I'd be in for a V1 Copper, maybe a Sheriff.

    Flanger To DIY or not to DIY?

    What other flanger is in the works? We have the BF-2, but that’s the only one I’ve seen on PPCB so far.
