Blues Driver

Stobiepole and I are putting this out for comment. This is a Boss BD-2 clone in two versions. Both versions are verified. The schematic source was freeinfosociety.com.
We used the J201 for the N-channel JFETs and 2N3904 and 2N3906 for the bipolar BJTs and that worked fine. Neither are original in the Boss box.

Desolder Pump
Some folks desolder with a braid but I have not mastered that yet. This desolder pump (or “solder sucker”) works well for me.
