Any amount of the stab knob other than full clockwise brings in crazy oscillating .. Not necessarily a bad thing…The fuzz is thick but almost...

    Gain and Tone controls do not work in my Kliche mini! Help!!!

    electrical tape is not a good idea... the leads can just poke through and short..... hook up power to pcb outside the enclosure.. bend the treble pot off the board and test for signal with all controls

    Gain and Tone controls do not work in my Kliche mini! Help!!!

    wait... what's with the wires coming off the dual gang? is that a single gang and you have wires doubled up? and do you have back of treble pot insulated with a dust cover?

    Gain and Tone controls do not work in my Kliche mini! Help!!!

    i'm not familiar with those particular jacks... so i'm no help there... I do see some of your soldering isn't wicking to both sides... you could have a cold joint.... unbox it and go ahead and touch up your joints.... and does your led work?

    Chop Shop Overdrive (Second Build)

    I prefer one color for wiring because of aesthetics… I wire the entire PCB after populated with all wires a bit longer than needed before putting in enclosure…I trim and solder each wire to the switch… then I trim and wire dc jack… slip in the jacks and trim/wire the grounds at top of pcb… go...

    dung beetle troubleshooting

    So I have a dung beetle that is not doing the thing... Finally figured out how to hook up an audio probe correctly thanks to you guys... Looking at the schematic I can find signal all the way to C4 and after that I cant find signal anywhere.. I was thinking maybe the tone pot was bad because I...

    Dumb this down for me (Audio Probe) I'm confused

    Ah... makes more sense now.. for some reason I thought the probe setup would be in front of the pedal... I was thinking backwards.... I think I got it now..... I built a dud this week and it's time to troubleshoot because everything looks spot on and I'm getting absolutely no signal when...
