In what sense? To be honest I've built a few of these just chucking in whatever 2N5952s I've had and they've all worked beautifully. I think Chuck has had less than stellar results with transistors which didn't bias as well. And often with these BJF designs 2N5457s work just as well as long as...

Just for you, as you asked so nicely! 😂

See this why I love building my own... I really like the BJF designed Baby Blue Overdrive but it sounded a bit thin with my Strat. So Chuck suggested how I could add a bass pot. This circuit is kind of fuzz-meets-overdrive. It's not a particularly twangy or "transparent" OD (Sorry for the TGP...

I think the Fascist Pumpkin needs to be a lot messier inside. It's too well laid out and makes sense. To be a true statement it shouldn't actually work at all. Maybe you could make it emit farting sounds only?

I once built a Tubescreamer with the 4 diodes as I showed above and added a simple bass pot section where R8 and C4 are. I was amazed at how much better it sounded (to me) than a standard Tubescreamer. Then you discover that you can build a TS without the buffers. Then you fiddle about a bit...

That Mouser-sourced pic looks like the OPA2134s I have. I have a few of them and seem to replace them with something else whenever I have used them.They're probably a bit too hi-fi or something for me. I use TL072s (just bought a bunch off Mouser for not too much $$) or TLC272s which seem to...

But I can take a lovely photo of it!

Aha! You passed my cunning trap! Of course there is the chance I meant the NE5532...

I LOVED the'80s! Everything happened for me in the '80s. I met the girl who eventually became my wife in the middle of the '80s, played in lots of bands and was part of the original music scene for most of it. We were into the alternative stuff so I never had a Kramer with a Floyd! I have a...

I think the tolerance is generally pretty wide for electrolytics.

I wonder where we could put the label for the enclosure? Lid is easy...

I tried the Morning Glory after building the Protein Blue, as they are both chasing the same thing. The MG does it by using a transistor, the Protein by using an opamp. I think the Protein sounds better. It might well fit into your enclosure! But it doesn't have a switch. I'm sure you could add...

More low end is straightforward. If you use the PPCB schematic, make C4 bigger. R8 and C4 make a high-pass filter which is what gives the TS that mid-hump. Making C4 bigger will move that mid hump down in frequency. Try 100nF and go from there. I would consider using more clipping diodes to...

Well @tegendemuur is onto something, because the cap's legs go through them and curl up underneath. So obviously they are some kind of pants or diaper.

That looks so cool! I love that they labelled the pilot light. That could have been very confusing otherwise...

You could use tants when you need a small 1µF cap.

With Chuck's help I traced it. I built mine on Vero. Check out the thread in Chuck's Boneyard. I would imagine that you could build the Diamond Peak and Major on the same board. I agree! Skreddy is next level when it comes to dirt pedal circuits.

I like fried rice. I'm at serious risk of damaging my computer from smashing like buttons. Which one IS the like button?? I've tried everything from qwerty to uiop and beyond and still I can't truly express my raging LIKE for their video.

I honestly don't know. I'm sure the Mallorys are fine but that F+T might be pushing it!

What is your desire?
