Thanks for the scheme! Does the Farfisa sound any different from the Vox?

Re: asian metal film resistor kits on ebay?

I bought a set from sunpec. they were just fine, albeit with the thin leads, and a few weird useless values.

However, the sudden uptick in the amount of Rolex / Viagra spam appearing in my inbox was less than fine.... your mileage may vary.

Re: D*A*M - Red Rooster

You have tempted the stompbox gods by boxing the effect up without the requisite number of curse words. Unbox it and burn at least one carbon comp resistor on the mojo altar. It should work then. Also... Bias to the collector as johnnyg said. And is the 5n cap connected correctly? I couldn't tell fr...

Re: Germanium Transistors

A quick question on the Russian 322.... it is one that has the pinout with the 4th ground leg. Is it just my imagination, or did I read somewhere on here that the 4th leg can just be cut off and/or ignored? I might have dreamt it because I can't find that post anywhere... I have a fuzz with a 322 in...

Re: Bigfoot FX Magnavibe [traced]

I can't quite tell from the dark photo, but it looks like there may be some solder bridges between rows 2 & 3 and rows 3 & 4.

Re: RNFR - Green Bomb Fuzz

That looks fantastic. The Green Bomb I built has issues and seeing this makes me want to dig it out for some debugging...

And what kind of enclosure is that? It looks nice and roomy.

Great work, as always.
