If you ask on PedalPCB's forum for build docs, they will most likely post you a pdf

Re: Sabbadius Rainbow Fuzz TFK BC108c

I bet it is a passive buffer
Probally a 50k pot after input jack to fuzzes input, sort of like the internal 50k trim pot on the Sunface.

Re: JHS - Bender [traced]

The video of the whole range has him saying he spent ages trying and tinkering to get the Ge sound out of Si and after endless testing, it turns out that these two decades old schems had it exactly right back then - who knew? i like the fact he's doing cool retro pedals with a nice sounding circuit...

moved the gut shots into this thread Thanks for all the info. but please enlighten on the polarity of C8? "normally" the signal should pass through an electrolytic cap on the +/pos leg first then head "downstream" through the circuit from the -/neg leg of the cap. I've seen this...

Re: Effective, safe and lasting method against scratchy pots

Not a very attractive solution, considering how much the value of a vintage pedal is lost due to changed components. I get your point and it would be fine with a modern pedal. For the old one i would at least do my best to prolong good function of the old pots and am therefore wondering about the b...

Re: Univox - Superfuzz [schematic]

2N3904 tend to be too hot. 2N2222 works better. Gains in the 150 to 180 range, with Q4 and Q5 matched. If you can find 2N2219's, even better. matched pair for Q4 and Q5 cause more of the upper octave thing? I made one of these years ago, seems to work good but I would like to revisit this pedal and...

I made one of these with a pcb I did on OSHPARK and it is not noisy at all... pedal rocks in fact. No oscillation at all and I am using the 1N5817 diodes all the way around, red LEDS. Was using it today thru a Mesa Lonestar classic and it gets that nice krang thing going :applause: Tossed a clone of...

So can the MA856 replaced by the MPSA18 base-emitter diode.

That's awesome!
Save your money and go the base-emitter route of MPSA18s
I want to take back my MA856's
