This is my third build of the circuit. My first was built to n00b construction specs, the 2nd as exercise in point-to-point, and this one is customized to fit into the design language I’m developing on my pedalboard.
The TONE knob felt useless to be, so I ditched it. I felt sure that I didn’t need to jumper the pot or the cap, but when I first boxed it up I was getting wild squealing. It was a hail mary to avoid unboxing. But I did take it out, and it was just a bad ground connection from the power jack.
As far as the circuit itself- this is one of my all-time favorites. I like my tone to be wild, like I’m taming an animal. This is definitely one of those pedals where you can “ride” the chaos.
