    Using a 4PDT to switch two pots

    I think it can be done, but I’m struggling to wrap my head around it. I built a RAH clone from here and love it, I leave it on all the time. What I’d like to do is use a footswitch so that I can have a preset option. The switch would change from the stock volume and gain pots to a different...

    SOLVED Issues with Prince Albert overdrive build

    Hello, I’m having some issues with this build. The volume seems low, and there is way too much bass. Other tone controls work, but don’t add much. My voltages seem consistent, but may be wrong. For the 9.1 volt diode I used 1N4739A As you look at the board, the bs170 in the top left gives me...

    Pigtronix - Philosopher’s Tone Compressor

    I know there are some layouts and schematics floating around for this one. I’ve always liked the way this one sounds.

    Dual effects loop switch

    Had fun with this one! Tried some new olive drab paint which turned out quite nice I wanted to do gold accents for this, and had a couple of leftover switch caps that were silver. I moved the enclosure what I thought was far enough away, but a stiff breeze had other thoughts. Turned out pretty...

    What jacks to use for dual effects loop switch?

    I’m having trouble finding suitable jacks for the dual effects loop switch, and for the power I/O module. Would anyone happen to have a link? I can find similar jacks that match the foot print, but not with the right washers. Thanks,

    Taming the treble in barbershop/chop shop

    I like the drive character of the chop shop, but it’s too bright for my rig. Looking at the schematic, the input cap is 0.01, which is a lot of treble, does anyone have a suggestion as to what to change this to? Also, am I barking up the wrong tree? Would I be better off changing one of the...

    (Solved) Duocast - which board revision do I have?

    I’ve come to drill my enclosure, and saw there were a few different drill template revisions. I followed the directions, but I don’t have a pcb number on either side of the board. Any clue what template I should use? Thank you,

    Executive fuzz - Jordan Bosstone

    Super easy build. I think I finished populating, soldering, drilling and wiring in under two hours. After a couple of beers! I built one of these on vero board 10 years ago and loved it. Didn’t have any 125b cases so I put in a 1590b. I was bummed about this, as I’m trying to have all my...

    Keeley - Loomer

    I suppose I could just put a fuzz and a reverb together in one enclosure with an order switcher, but was curious as to what was in this one.

    Repair - Ibanez bi-mode chorus bc-9

    Howdy y’all. I had been meaning to fix this one up for some time, but could never remember what was wrong with it. I just opened it up to find that the circuit board was broken where the screw grounds the board to the case. What’s the best way to go about fixing this? My gut is telling me...

    Son of Ben - Preamp

    I just finished building this one. It sounds great! A little more gain than I was hoping for. I had to mix and match pot types with what I had on hand, which messed with how I had to solder them all in so they were set at the same height. I also tried some different enclosed jacks which I...

    Deflector reverb - no sound

    Hello, Just finished up a Deflector Reverb, and I’m getting no sound. Bypass works fine, but nothing when active. The L78L33 gets warm/hot to the touch, but I’m not sure if that’s ok or not. Everything is socketed, including the regulator. I’m powering this with a one spot. Does anyone know...
