    breadboarding (tone bender MkII, MkI, fuzz face, big muff)

    Here you go. Strat, neck+middle, Dunlop JFD2 Ge Fuzz Face, first in phase then out of phase. Crappy playing and room phone recording.

    breadboarding (tone bender MkII, MkI, fuzz face, big muff)

    Ludicrous, huh? It's all fun and games until it melts your face. I'll see if I can record a quickie this week.

    Chop shop quick question

    I have another question before I build mine. The current production model has 4 trim pots And this is from the FAQ (emphasis mine): Can I adjust the trim pots in my Barbershop overdrive? As it says on the Barbershop PCB, adjust nothing. The trim pots were put in the pedal to ease the...

    breadboarding (tone bender MkII, MkI, fuzz face, big muff)

    I think the MKI might be the best fuzz sound ever but it's an on or off pedal, no dynamics. I'm actually happy playing my out of phase Fenders into a Fuzz Face. It sounds like a chainsaw and close to an MKI with a wah on. All I need is a new tone pot, linear or rev log, so I can do the wah...

    breadboarding (tone bender MkII, MkI, fuzz face, big muff)

    The MKII is easy enough. I also have one on a breadboard that sounds similar and it also cleans up eventually byt more slowly than a FF. The MKI OTOH is my white whale. I noticed I need around 8V on Q3c or it won't sound right, and getting there with additional resistors sucks volume and high...

    When will the US finally adopt the metric system? It's so logical and easy to use. It's not arugula science.

    NØTMÄKËMŰSIC Didn't you even take up fishing after you stopped building pedals? At least i remember seeing a picture of you on a boat somewhere. Maybe you were sourcing diodes? Anything not to play guitar 😀

    3AX31C Germanium gain

    It's the MK2 then. A Fuzz Face with a transistor stage in front. Those are the gain ranges. You want leakage in Q2 and Q3 above 100uA. Q3 should be around -8V

    3AX31C Germanium gain

    I also bought a batch of these and had to trash most of them. Which Tone Bender? There are at least 4 different circuits.

    Duo-Phase Switches

    IIRC: the SPDT chooses the LFO for phaser B, A or B - it can be independent or it can be controlled by phaser A. I think it's A in the up position. The DPDT chooses whether the LFOs are synced or not - Normal in the up position, reverse in the down position. I gleaned this from build reports...

    All Hail Fig

    I was absent from the forum for a long while and came back to no Fig and was really sad. His contests (I even won one), sense of humor, encouragement and all around wholesomeness really made this forum a special part of the internet. It still is. Here's to you, @fig!

    proper power supply for ts 101 solder iron

    I have a Pinecil, similar to the TS101, and use a 65W 20V phone charger with a PD USB port. This was the maximum power the iron accepted when I bought it.
