    Ever try a JFET power amp?

    I was reading about these crazy high voltage and current SiC JFETs (onsemi UJ3N065080K3S) and wondered if they could be used like a power tube in push-pull with a phase inverter and a transformer. The dream of course is an all-JFET Viceroy as an amplifier not just a pedal. ;) Chuck did you...

    What amplifiers do you like for testing how a pedal design/modification sounds?

    Hey @Chuck D. Bones and the various geniuses in here, what amplifier(s) do you like to use for testing pedals, particularly for assessing tone, etc.? How do you like to set them up?

    Who do I ask about including biasing instructions for Viceroy?

    @Chuck D. Bones had some really good instructions for biasing the Viceroy (Boneyard Edition) here and here. Who would I ask about adding these in a note at the end of the build instructions PDF? I've built two of these now (my guitar teacher wanted one), and I have to go and find that each...

    What mini drill press do people like?

    Question: Is there a small desktop drill press people like for drilling pedal enclosures? I got advertised this Innocraftsman Mini one, but they were showing watch parts, so it seemed small...

    MY KINGDOM FOR A 10uF 25V CAPACITOR! (three actually)

    OK...the shipping for my online order is now delayed and won't get here until MONDAY! Two pedals fully soldered up except for three 10uF capacitors -- I ran out. Stupid of me I know, but I ordered replacements last week and DigiKey had some weird shipping delay. But you know what else is...

    Solder pots for soldering whole boards?

    Has anyone tried this? I saw an ad fulltone pedals and they showed one being used in the ad to solder like 20 pedals at once. I looked and there are smaller ones that can do like one pedal PCB board. Are these useful?

    Chop Shop V2 -- first pedal! -- Sounds Great!

    So I built my first pedal ever. I had chanced upon the review of the Fairfield Barbershop on YouTube and liked it, and became fascinated with JFET overdrive then discovered PedalPCB and the forum! Got super into reading all the old threads, particularly Chucks Boneyard where they talked about...

    Viceroy (Boneyard Edition) sounds spectacular!

    This is a super fun project. I really like the sounds of JFET overdrive both with the Chop Shop and the Viceroy. The Viceroy can get a lot of the Chop Shop sounds, but is way more versatile. Particularly when playing with headphones and the so-so cab simulator built into my amplifier, being...

    What are the most rugged 1/4" jacks people are using?

    Are there ones that are more rugged than the others? I just bought a few mono ones from Tayda, but they weren't SwitchCraft. What do people like?

    Where are people getting potentiometers?

    DigiKey doesn't seem to have the 16mm, right-angle, through hole potentiometers called for on the build sheets (I bought the Viceroy and Chop shop boards). I was able to get some from adafruit, but not a 10k linear-taper one, FWIW.
