The Tone Bender here uses OC81 so maybe not exactly old school? I don't know but those ussr old stock germ oc5 are plentiful. I built a tone bender years ago and thought it was really nice sounding. should I be looking for another build that is more interesting in some way?

Just wondering if the wiring diagram is missing the Diagonal jumper on the Boost footswitch or if my switch is bad. I have funky function with it, does not always engage, light volume, needs jiggling. Someone saw it and mentioned it may........ Thanks

are these two totally different circuits or is the HRM just a voicing mod?

Knowing little about vintage transistors, if one would find some of these that are neither red nor white dot and test good, is it to be expected that they will work fine in a fuzz circuit? Provided they could be had for not terrible money, is it worth it to spend a little extra to have them...

Do the currently available do well in a Fuzz Face circuit? Tayda has them

is it here?

The design calls for (1) 6 position and (1) 5 position. What's anyone doing to replicate this with available rotary switches. Just spreading out the clicks on the graphic and then letting the unused clicks be vacant?

This is the first version board, first run. Being a novice, I had confusion but folks here helped me out. parts of the wiring remain, uh, ratty. There's also a ground issue causing minor hum that stops when I touch my guitar strings or the pedal. The first enclosure I put effort into...

is it here? What should I build?

Finally getting to this build and have a couple of issues here. I've read the other posts on this one and I'm still confused. While all sections seem to work, the octave is not really audible and there's a lot of noise in the signal. 1st question that may solve it is...does the misprinted...

Working on a Parentheses V1 but this question could apply across the board. This design calls for a Red diode. I have a clear one. How much will it matter? Is red more or less of something over clear, or blue or green? Or multi colors? I really want to use what I have on hand but I could...

Any real functional difference in most of these circuits? I accidentally used the G where no G was called for thanks

I have no idea if this whole thing is analog or if it's possible to do but it sounds amazing. Maybe without the digital control features, ie, no presets.

what can be done to get the high roll-off to happen somewhere about noon? right now I have the filter cranked to the right to get a minimal amount of high roll-off but I find that many amps need it to happen sooner, or to get a bit more roll-off than is available. in short: it's a bright...

Are BC109c by Central Semiconductor the common tranny used for the classic circuits? Thinking about a Colorsound Overdriver. Maybe folks are finding actual vintage trannies but they may be old and picked through or un-matched, I have read. Certainly a fuzz I built a long time ago using OC76...

I've built a fuzzdog Dumb Lloyd that is very similar. The difference that I can see is the tone pot on the Special is 20k instead of 25 k. My build has a problem with the tone pot in that it's muffled until about 8.5 then it's sweet around 8.5 to 9.5 then it's shrill t 10. Tight sweet spot...

Really good sounding trem at ridiculous prices. The cool thing about it is the speed up footswitch. They say Joyo makes a copy but it's not. The Diaz sounds rich and proper for a trem. much like an in amp trem

sadly my Informant build does not work. I need an intro to going through the pedal with a multimeter. Does anyone have a good link that will explain this and teach me how to find my problem? something basic and straight forward for a noob? Thanks

substituting in the Informant, C3 Of course I didn't order it

All my ic's from mouser don't have this notch. How do I know the orientation. is it the faint embossed disk?
