Hey folks... So, a long time ago I built a Musikding Bluesbreaker clone... I LOVE it... It has a great tonal Character and very loud... unlike bbs of old...
I recently put together a PedalPCB Bluebreaker pcb using the same values found in the Musikding kit... it sounds really good, BUT... it's also very quiet with a different tonal character...
My goal was to recreate a 1for1 clone of my Musikding build in the more tidy 125b enclosure...
So, I have my old My old Musikding kit cracked open and I found something interesting... The R1 resistor in my Musikding kit is dead... I'm getting .5 Ohms with a multimeter...I also have continuity on both sides of it, telling me it's effectively "open" and applying no resistance...
If R1 isn't applying any resistance (supposed to be 1meg), and thus the response is much louder and tonal Character is different...
Would this be the logical conclusion, and, in theory if I remove R1 from my Bluebreaker build, it would yield the same result?
