A simple tubescreamer. It sickens me to know that these sell for over $400.

Wouldn't have thought it is polarised.

I think it is used to reduce the voltage down from 9v to 8.2v so I guess you can't sub it out.

So what's he done then? Do you think those resistors that you can see in the images Torchy linked to are actually lower than 47K (maybe 10k) and are in parallel with the pots to reduce their overall value? Why not just buy a 10k pot though?

EDIT:

Hmm, we could possibly get a rough reverse from that, if we could get an image of the other side of the board :P

heh! Top stuff. Some of the booteek boys really do suck ass.

In this world honesty goes a long way. Look at Dano and his FKR - he's honest about what it is and he builds 'em good nuff said without all the mojo marketing . . . .

I think it is correct. You can see the 47K limiting resistor that is on the pots travel to ground. So there isn't actually a 100k in series, it's actually much less.

I think it's quite funny. Every time you buy a zvx you are basically buying a multiple of the SHO - x2 x3 x4! C'mon Z give us something to get excited about!

Zvex - Seekwah [traced]

I've got a copy of the seekwah scheme and was wondering if anyone is interested. Could I email it to one of you guys who has an imageshack e.t.c account to upload for the public?
