I wanna say yes, as I'm 99% sure its the one I used, it is an amazing circuit.Madbean has a pcb transfer for it as well. Paul C has stated on here he redesigned it with a buffer and uploaded a schem for that. look up paulc, you'll see it in his older posts.

Re: j201 substitute

POTL - where did you order the adapter boards? China? Last time I've checked ali and ebay, probably all of the cheap adapters had "wrong" pinout. 2-3-1 instead of 3-2-1. T. As a side note on those shitty adapter boards, you can mount the sot23 transistor sideways and fix that pinout issue...

Re: Menatone - None More Black [traced]

The eyelet size that best fit the pics of the guts are size 45(0.125 inch) I got 25, 35, 45 to see which one matched and the 45 is the right diameter, but the 35 is my preference from now on. So there ya have it menatone eyelet size is going to be in the 43-48 range. Diameter same just hole depth ch...

Re: Wampler Leviathan Fuzz

Maybe a jfet buffer into a 2 band gyrator between a hard clipping non inv stage and a flat booster? Or perhaps the jfet is last and its set for a slight boost as opposed to a buffer. I have no idea. I think ill buy one and trace it , because at this point its borderline obsession .

Howdy folks, first post here. This thread is pretty old with a good bit of "link rot", but from the surviving gut shots it seems Q1 is reversed from some of the common schematics floating around the web (GGG and Fuzz Central), with emitter connected to the 220r and 220k etc. The Jeorge Tr...

Re: Soul Food modding a mod

The hunch I have is to say it's a no. Depends on alot, mainly WHICH Caps youve piggybacked and what type of switch you're using, a dpdt on-off-on means you could use half for caps and half for diodes, but they would switch at the same times for the corresponding caps. easier to pop in another switch...
