Wow, not even a "DD"? Interesting... You can raise the gain of a Bluesbreaker style pedal by: Increasing Drive pot from 100k to 250k (or higher) Increasing the 220k (R7 in the KOT) "gain resistor" for the 2nd half of dual opamp Decreasing the 10k (R6 in KOT, his POT "turbo&q...

I built your other layouts on the tagboardeffects forum and I'm not 100%, but I remember there being more gain than this? I'm visually A/B'ing your modified layout with the one posted on...

Hope this helps someone. On the last post of page 1 I posted issues with my build. Turns out my relays were no good! I didn't think to suspect them since I ordered them from Jameco on ebay, which I'm pretty sure is a legitimate electronics store. I ended up on some "verified distributors" ...

My build is having an issue trying to activate the relay. For some reason I'm not getting a consistent 5v from my Pin 2 (GP5). Without the relay in place, I measure 5v. As soon as I put the relay in, I get .02v or my meter just goes haywire and can't read a stable voltage. My LED turns on and off fi...

I built the tagboard layout yesterday, but am having issues: 1. Low Volume. I can Max the Volume & Gain, and it's at the volume level I play in my Apt. 2. TIGHT Pot. CCW and my volume/bass increase. CW my volume decreases and treble increases. 3. The TRIM pot, when set half way or higher just so...
