What's in the mailbox? 📬 📦

Have you tried bending the legs of some tube sockets to make it work? What circuit is it?
Bending would work. But the legs are too thick for the holes too and I can’t redrill without making the pads too thin for the voltage and current they’ll see. Hoh well. I’ll take the opportunity to make the small resistor pads bigger because as they are I will have to use a very thin iron and it won’t be fun I fear. Lesson learn. But hey. Grand total was below 40€ so better now than assembled! I am also triple checking the spacings since I have the components here.

As for the circuit it’s a modified Deliverance 60. Basically made it fully two channels.
 
I don't buy pedals very often as I can make most things I need, but sometimes I'm impressed enough by someone's work that I want to pick something up just to keep in the collection. Recently I discovered 6 Degrees FX, and this showed up today. Unassuming and unremarkable on the outside, but the guts are what counts.

How does it sound?
I'm not really a TS person and it's basically just a really nice TS808, but as far as TS808s go I would say it sounds very good.

I also grabbed their Rat (out for delivery this evening), Bluesbreaker, and their original preamp. They're really well designed and well built, but I guess they never really caught on, prices are deceptively reasonable for them online.

Those guys have amazing craftsmanship. I really like their Millie fuzzstortion (cough @Robert cough)
 
Latest Love My Switches order just arrived. It's really, really nice having them one state over. Some of the knobs are for builds I'm finishing up, the enclosures are all for future ones. The most immediate of the latter is a mini Fuzz Face I'll be putting in one of the red 1590As.

The lil' kit is a CV expansion mod for Gehirn Enterprises Noiswasp (4ms NoiseSwash clone) I built recently.

Isabelle's feelings on the matter are...predictable 😂 IMG_20250224_164428026.jpg

Not enough hyperbolic marketing schpiel...... :p
