    Protoboard Micro Assembly Tips?

    Despite (mostly) lurking on the forum for a while now, it wasn’t until this month that I finally had the space to set up a small workspace to finally start working through the pile of boards I’ve accumulated. I thought I’d start by building the protoboard micro I bought a while back to try out...

    Proxy Shopping Services from EU/UK to US?

    I've been looking around to stock up on some more PNP transistors and have noticed that a lot of the Ukrainian sellers on eBay I've bought from in the past are understandably running low on inventory/bumping up the costs of their lots. While randomly looking around, I've stumbled onto smaller...

    Building Exar OD-1 on Scream Machine Board?

    I know this is mostly another Screamer but I was trying to compare the schematic for the LGSM against the schematic Vitalii from Drunk Beaver was kind enough to post to freestompboxes and it looks like the biggest differences are down to different component values, the asymmetrical clipping...

    Protoboard Micro Components?

    I'm putting a Mouser order together and wanted to throw in the pin headers needed for the protoboard micro. I'm still new to Mouser's search function and wanted to confirm getting four of these headers would be comparable to the option on Tayda @Robert mentioned in an old thread about sourcing...

    CDXL Classic?

    Not sure why it took me so long to find out Jonny Greenwood used a DOD 440 on OK Computer but I have and now I've read through a bunch of old posts about the issues folks have had using the Xvive VTL5C4/2s in the classic build. Was wondering if the Classic has been permanently shelved due to...

    Question About Octave Diodes

    I'm currently scrounging up parts for an Uberfuzz build and the OA90 replacements I ordered came in early. I tested them on my DCA75 and they came out to .531V and .605V. Was reading through old threads about diodes and was wondering if a difference of .074V was outside of the range of optimal...

    Transistor Specs for Tone Vendor Mk II?

    Hi all, I've tried combing through old posts here, as well as on diystompboxes, looking for some guidance on gain and leakage specs for a TB Mk II build, and hadn't really had much luck other than finding out at least Q1 needs to be leakier than what you'd use in most other circuits. Until, that...

    Low and High-Gain Sunflower Builds?

    I'm currently stocking up on a bunch of ge transistors to test and use in a couple of Sunflower builds and was wondering if there were guidelines on how to use either low or high-gain transistors (as opposed to using the 70/120 rule of thumb for 'conventional' FFs). I'm looking at some...
