Hey all. I’m having a fun time with this build, first off. Second; on the top left and top right, there are a couple spots labeled GE. I’m certain one side needs to be a silicon diode and the other germanium diodes. And if so, is there a value better than the other that I should use for...

Perfect! Thanks for the help! Looking forward to finishing this one!

Thanks! That looks close. I’ll give it a whirl!

Hope everyone is having a great day so far. I just got the fuzzy fox PCB, but no drill template posted yet. Does anyone have an old template floating around? If not, no biggie. I can finish all the soldering and line it up. I can get all the needed parts from the PCB, but not sure if the...

One can never have too many fuzz pedals!

After the 3 I just ordered, I’ll be a bit busy for a week haha. But, I’ll grab those after these builds. I’ve been throwing a treble boost in back of my kewpie fuzz, and if I keep all my tone knobs down to 0, even on my guitar, then run it through a humbucker, it sounds like pure gold! So...

ohhhh good idea. I’ve been pretty curious about the Mofeta. I think I’ll grab one of those to try it out. Thanks!

Sorry I’m late to report back, but thanks for all the suggestions! I really only wanted to get 1 PCB, but ended up getting 3! Haha. The fuzz fox, death cap and arkaim. So, I’ll have a busy week ahead of me. Can’t wait to build them! Thanks again guys!

Thanks for the tip!

They look great. I’ll probably pick up all 3!

Oh ya!! This is a good one!

YESSSSS!!!

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. That looks like it chugs. I've been messing with those 5089's. I think i bit off more than I can chew with this post. I might have a lot of builds coming my way

Very nice! That is right up my ally! I’m not sure what transistors those are, as there is a revision. But, they look like a BC108 or close to that. And that is exactly what I’m looking for. Thanks!

Hope everyone is great! I’m trying to grab a mean gritty doomy evil nasty fuzz PCB. I got the Silismile, Kewpie and Bellum fuzz MKII. All great pedals. The Kewpie is the clear winner, but want to grab a PCB that’ll sound even meaner than that. If that’s even possible. But if someone has a...

Well, thanks for all the help, I got the rangemaster up and running. AND I learned how to bias transistors haha. Which is going to help tremendously! I used a few different transistors, but went back to the gritty BC108. I put it in line with a tube screamer style pedal I designed and WOW...

Ohhhhhhhh!!!! Nice. Can’t believe I didn’t bother to look on pedalpcb.com. 🤦‍♂️. Thanks man! I’ll grab a few of those for sure. I’m hellbent on building a shatterbox that works on a negative to ground power supply haha. Not sure why when I have a nice fuzz face and a kewpie from pedalpcb...

This is kind of what I’ve been reading. I do, in fact, like the charge pump. BUT, I would like to do things in the easiest way possible. I am still going to try the charge pump. But I think I’ll try flipping all the polarity sensitive components on a bread board and see what happens haha...

Do you find the TC1044SCPA to be better than the MAX1044? I'm guessing they are pretty much the same chip, just a different manufacturer? Also, probably a dumb question, that the charge pump is obviously prior to the actual circuit, and the negative ground is powering the TC1044SCPA? Looks...

Got it. This is probably why I don’t get direct answers when I research this. A charge pump is probably the way to go. I’m sure I can figure out how to implement it to the circuits I want. I did design a NPN Rangemaster, and it sounded great! But, I’d like to build it with a switch that...
