I have a bunch of extra pots I am selling on eBay. Sold in bulk, with per pot pricing between $0.10 and $0.20. I paid 40 cents for the single gang pots, and a dollar per dual-gang, so these prices are BIG discounts. I don't need them anymore, so I'm clearing out my remaining inventory. https://www.e...

I was wondering if you would care to offer any insights about your experience in the 'pedal business '. The ups, the downs, philosophy, building, suppliers, marketing,.. As you can probably tell, I don't check in here too often. The question is definitely not out of bounds. I'll do my best to answe...

I'll post the rest when they are done. http://vfepedals.com/schematics/alphadog.pdf http://vfepedals.com/schematics/bluesking.pdf http://vfepedals.com/schematics/darkhorse.pdf http://vfepedals.com/schematics/distortion3.pdf http://vfepedals.com/schematics/dragonhound.pdf http://vfepedals.com/schemat...

I need to offload a ton of pots - 16mm, right angle PCB pins, 6.0mm smooth shaft, more durable substrate, and most are 10% tolerance. I'm discounting them by 50% my current listing price until April 9. Get 200 of them for just $39.50 + shipping! This time around, even the dual-gang pots count the sa...

I upped the pricing to my cost ($35 for 100 QTY), but this pricing only lasts until Christmas. On Monday, I'll start charging $49 for 100 QTY & $79 for 200 QTY. I will be using the extra margin to spend the time required to better organize these shipments. Right now, all 100 pots are mixed toget...

It's a long story, but I ended up with over 15,000 pots I can't use in a variety of values. Check them out here - https://www.ebay.com/itm/172406016674?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 If you need to contact me, please do so via email at sales@vfepedals.com. I also have a few ...

I'd be interested in schematics for many of them, esp. the Distortion3 (based on DOD250/Distortion+) and the Pale Horse. Here you go! FYI, the Pale Horse has a charge pump that is not pictured. so the power rails are +9V and -9V. Pale Horse schematic: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3249689/For...

Interesting overdrive with dual "diodes in the feedback loop" op amp gain stages, including one setting where both op amp stages have single diodes for very asymmetric clipping. Sounds kinda cool and especially cool that he describes the circuits and shows shadow masks and gut shots on th...

Now posted on eBay, with a BIN at $50 for everything except the lot of 3000 22nf (this is listed separately). Search for "5mm metallized film capacitors" and it should come up.

I plan to post these back up on eBay later today, so if you are interested, please E-mail or PM me right away.

I don't know from personal experience if Harold's veroboard is working (though it says "VERIFIED" right on it). The simplest, quickest, and less-potential-for-failure way to build a BP clone is to just get a TS808 PCB and modify the changed values on the board. Then off-board wire the clip...

Let's try this again...this time I read the rules for posting! I am moving to using WIMA caps, and want to offload my current inventory of film caps. All caps are rated at 100V, 5mm lead spacing, and 5% tolerance. Below is a list of the capacitors I have in stock. Because I want to move these quickl...

I should have read the guidelines first! Sorry about the eBay links. I'd tried to edit the post, but can't seem to do so anymore. Any suggestions on how to edit it?

I am making a transition to WIMA caps, and to expedite this process I am selling my current inventory at about half of what I paid. I'm looking to off-load these to as few people as possible, but if these auctions end with bids, I am willing to split/combine values (minimum total caps: 250). All cap...

I've bought from Tayda many times, and every time it's been perfect. I use PayPal too, so no worries about sensitive financial information getting stolen (at least via the transaction!).

In order to meet minimum order quantities, I will need to sell some of the Carling switches I buy. Below is the list of switches I will carry. Before setting the price, I wanted to check with DIYers & builders if there is strong interest in these parts. The switches are very heavy duty & the...

I shop there too when I need to get some parts quickly. If you're a builder, you really can't make a living if you buy from these local shops regularly, as the bulk pricing at Small Bear, Mouser, and others is too significant to pass up. But for immediate needs & DIY projects, this place is grea...

It actually came about on accident. I meant to design two separate pedals, which eventually were called the Bumblebee & Blueprint. However, the initial design was a little too big, and the backplate for the 1290NS enclosure ran into the jacks. The 1590NS enclosure was about 1/16" deeper, wh...
