    2sk209g alternative?

    Hello, I’m going to be building the eight ball overdrive, and I have all the parts except the 2sk209g JFET. Is there another alternative I could substitute in its place? Many thanks!

    Paradise Overdrive with a unique enclosure

    Hello! Finished up my Paradise Overdrive (Marshall Silver Jubilee). I wanted to make an enclosure that looks like the amp it’s emulating. For the red rocker power switch, I decided to use that as the indicator LED. I decided to “gut” it out for lack of a better phrase and place two ultra bright...

    Breakout board LED question

    Hello! I’m wanting to build a pedal that has two (same color) LEDs for aesthetic purposes. I have a few breakout boards on hand that have the additional A and K LED hookup. Can I use the normal A and K pads on the main PCB board for one of them, and use the A and K pads on the breakout board...

    Could this indicator light idea work?

    Hello! I’m wondering if this idea could work, and if so, how to go about it. I’m planning on making a Marshall jubilee style pedal and would like to use a Marshall JCM style rocker switch in place of the LED indicator light—I think it would be a cool aesthetic. The switch wouldn’t do anything...

    3K74 resistor?

    Hello! I’m looking forward to building the new Breakroom overdrive (Keeley 1962x). Looks straightforward enough outside of one thing. One resistor is labeled as 3K74. I’m fairly new to pedal building but I haven’t seen this before. Is it appropriate to use a 3.7K resistor, or would I need an...

    Dual SRV style overdrive. Recommendations?

    Hello! I am looking to build my first two-in-one style overdrive pedal. I’m wanting to build a SRV “Texas blues” style pedal using a big 1590xx sized pedal. I’d like to to a TS808 (or variant) for the first pedal, then hitting a Dumble style preamp or amp in a box style pedal as the second...

    Sproing deluxe reverb not working

    Hello, I am building the Sproing deluxe. I have it all done and put together. Everything powers on, the tremolo side works perfectly. The LEDs work perfectly. The only issue is that the reverb is nonexistent. I hit the foot switch and the LED powers on just fine, but the control doesn’t do...

    A few Sproing Deluxe questions

    Hello, I am sourcing parts for the Sproing Deluxe. This is my first non-overdrive build and it looks a little more involved. There are no build documents listed so I’m going off the board itself. A few questions: 1. It lists I need a L78L05. I linked Tayda below, is this the correct part for...

    Golden Falk build

    Hello! I just completed my third build, the PedalPCB Golden Falk. It’s based on the Colombo Plexi Breed. This is a fantastic pedal. I am quite picky on my Marshall style pedals and this is the best one I’ve tried. It has that amp like feel to it, not just the sound. The build was...

    Powder Blue overdrive

    Hello all, I’ve recently completed my build of the Powder Blue overdrive pedal. This is my second ever pedal build. I am pleasantly surprised in how it turned out. My first pedal build was the Je T’aime which was a one-knob Marshall JTM clone. I figured I would try a more “involved” build this...

    First pedal complete!

    Hello, This is my first attempt at building a pedal. I selected the Je T’aime as it required few components and only had one knob. I’ve never soldered before either, so this entire process was completely new. Needless to say, I’m hooked and thoroughly enjoyed this process. The pedal works...

    Indicator light question

    Hello, I’m new to building pedals and am working on a Je T’aimee circuit. I figured this would be a simple build as it’s only one knob and minimal components. However, I really want to have a Marshall indicator light as the indicator LED as a nice touch to this Marshall inspired pedal. I’ve...
