    The way fuzz knob on a Fuzz Face works

    A B1k pot with a 180 ohm resistor from pin 2 to ground will give you approximately a 152 ohm pot with a "C" taper. Wire this in series with the fuzz pot..

    Recommended components for JLCPCB assembly process...

    Made an order last week at JLCPCB for some personal stuff, a few odds and ends. I live in midwest America, so shipping through DHL was like 30 bucks, my order was 43$. I was charged 100$ extra just for Tariffs! 145%. total was 170$ something. Fun Times!! Sorry, just had to complain a bit..

    SOLVED Troubleshooting ts10

    Probably just a manufacturers mark. Does it rub off easily? Capacitor goo, (IME) is usually a nasty, brownish color and leaks from the bottom. The cap will also usually be misshapen, though this can be subtle.

    Volume mod Can of Worms

    Yeah, I gotta say I tried 180k as well, and it's fine at 180k. Less volume, but not a problem amount.

    Parenthesis Fuzz Octave Intelligent Relay Bypass Help

    Looks like the "power in" on the octave footswitch is reversed from the others.. Edit: Yeah, not the power. Just your footswitch wires. Don't troubleshoot while drowsy!

    Barely Any Overdrive at Max - PedalPCB Chop Shop / Fairfield Circuitry Barbershop

    From Music6000: From the Builder, Thanks Carl - FC : Let's start by sorting the JFETS. As we saw on the datasheet, J201's can have an Idss value from 200uA to 2mA. That is a huge range. For Q1, you want a J201 that has an Idss from 600-800 uA. For Q2, you want one with Idss about 400-600uA. So...

    SOLVED Cobalt drive - Gain pot not working

    Are you taking resistance measurements with the power on? The power should be off for resistance. It may not change your current readings, but it sure will give erroneous readings sometimes. The meter sends a known voltage through the leads, then measures the current, which gives resistance-...

    Is my MOSFET fried?

    When I've had mosfets go bad, they usually read as 2 diodes, or it reads as unknown part on a TC-1. Your Source voltage seems high..

    Wiring the leprechauns magic switch with switch PCB

    Without a schematic, its tough to tell. The problem is, that board shorts the input to ground in bypass. ( pin 1 shorts to pin 6 in one position.) It would work if you didn't hook up the LED, or at least don't hook to the ground pad.
