    First build and introduction - Amentum Boost (EQD Arrows)

    Welcome Hetari! GREAT 1st build. When you're ready to do the Klone, don't forget to check out Chuck D. Bones' great amalgamation of bass-mods for the circuit! https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/bass-klon.13073/ Lots of other great bass-friendly circuits on the forum and in the shop...

    Component Testing Is Breaking My Brain

    Ginsly, there are some circuits that intentionally reverse the transistors — - "peyote mode" in a modded Jordan Boss Tone, ie a switch that flips between normal and reversed; - several of Devi Ever's circuits. What's really damaging is over-voltage, like feeding something 18v when it's only...

    Component Testing Is Breaking My Brain

    "one said 2.443k and one said 2.455k" and 202 hfe (2.02v) vs 204 hfe (204v)... Close enough. Don't overthink things too much (like I do). The only time I'm really getting nitty-gritty with multiple measurements of the same component is when I want it to match another component for OCTAVE...

    Thumb Sucker

    Very clean and good-looking build. What kinds of music are you playing?

    VHS

    Looks GREAT! Very period-correct graphics. Most of my FV-1 boards I ordered pre-soldered, but the FV-1 chips were out of stock when I ordered this board.

    Gerkin Fuzz with toggles

    I'm not sure what you mean by "...1pdt toggles with a 50K / 470K resistor on one pole and the center and opposite pole wired straight to the board?" My understanding is you want separate SPDT switches, one for the SCOOP and another for the CRUNCH — so there is no "opposite pole". To clarify...

    Lead solder overdrive

    Looks 3D-printed, with threaded-inserts for the lid-screws. Copper-tape or paint-shield the entire interior may help reduce noise if it is indeed a plastic 3D-printed enclosure.

    1590A Tremolo?

    If you need State-side, SynthCube/SmallBear is starting to offer a few of FuzzDog's PCBs, but I haven't checked for tremolo. [EDIT: I just checked out FuzzDog @ SynthCube and nothing came up; but SmallBear has the Csound tremolo, which most likely could be stuffed inside a 1590A though it's not...

    Taqueria Overdrive Mockup Pedal - Arriving Soon!

    Well, all this Taco 'bout Taqueria reminds me of one of the best threads ever on the interwebs, ie this saucy one: https://www.talkbass.com/threads/might-have-found-my-stolen-bass-help.1086358/ Read through the whole enchilada, it's delectable right through to the spicy end — but, just be...

    Unless you don't like centre-detent... (I don't. I prefer to centre the pots myself.)

    VHS -- aka Primary Colors

    Great build and report! It's this level of thought and attention to detail going into a pedal-build that I like best.

    TC Electronic Booster + Line Driver & Distortion Broken Footswitch

    I wasn't talking about the "loopers" that record and play back snippets of your playing (like your Loop Stations). A switcher for two effects chains/channels (often referred to as "loops") is what I'm talking about. You could make a simpler one-channel effects loop just for your B+LD&D, to...

    TC Electronic Booster + Line Driver & Distortion Broken Footswitch

    @peterkarak, welcome to PPCB. A looper would be a great starter project to dip your toes into the DIY water. You could go bare-bones and get just the bare essential tools and components to build one, or go a step up to help with build-confidence would be to get a looper board right here from...

    Boss Enclosure to PedalPCB designed PCB So Far!

    Was going to mention the Rixen, but Robert beat me to it. I really liked the idea behind it, but there were still some issues with it — the main one being price. Never did pull the trigger on a Rixen because of the cost, I just couldn't justify it. I was a bit surprised when I compared a...

    Toggle switch question

    Yep you got it right. The Rat has hard-clipping to ground. Wiring from the signal path to lug-2 of a DPDT ( IN of the switch) and connecting lug-5 to ground (switch's OUT), if you don't wire LEDs between 2&5 then the "OFF" position is truly off as there is nothing going to ground. Columns of...
