Hey all, saw someone having a similar issue with a tubescreamer the other day so I tried a different power supply like suggested to them, but no luck.
The video was taken yesterday, but today I took the circuit out of the 3pdt switch with an audio probe and now I can hear the full effect when playing, when I stop playing thats when the feedback/oscillation returns. When I was wired through the switch, I still got oscillation even when bypassed if I turned the volume knob up and it would change pitch. I traced the feedback sound starts when I touch the collector of the second transistor, and the 4k7 resistor touching it.
Any thoughts on what it could be? When I remove the second transistor from the circuit, the oscillation stops.
Thanks so much for any help.
