Not out of line at all!
You've been kind enough to share your circuit.
Let's show the respect due the originator.

Just to keep things in perspective...
we've also had builders get offended, and ask that clones of their pedals NOT be called the original name because they weren't built by them and were just someone else's interpretation.

That wasn't really directed at you BTW..
Just an observation for all..

No disrespect taken. Take it as a token of appreciation for the free exchange of information.
I can understand that some builders take offense at what's going on here but I think it's pretty clear that with or without our consent, there are resources like this one that will post schematics of commercial products. Why pretend that it's not going on?

The bias might indeed be off. When sorting the J201s I use in the Barbershop, some have an Idss as low as 200uA while others crack the 1mA. The drain resistors are selected according to measured values. For the record, I bias around 2/3 supply.
What are the specs on your JFETs?

Clearly Guillaume is one of the good ones.
Thanks for sharing your insights and information. We really appreciate it.

Sweet stuff, sounds pretty good to me. Definitely has the same character. Gotta love that brown sound, and those odd intermodulation products that stick out here and there.

fairfield, you're a cool dude.
Hi All, since it's supposed to snow several feet here tomorrow and probably end all life as we know it, I figured I'd ride out the frozen armageddon by perhaps building a pedal, maybe this one. My only issue is I don't have anything resembling the polarity protection jfet (VP3203). Can someone recommend an alternative that might be more commonly accessible? Or, if I promise not to plug the wrong polarity power supply in, could it be omitted altogether? Thanks much.
Hi,
I'm very interested in building this pedal.
I just have a question: as Okonomyake said I also can't find a vp3203 and Guillaume Fairfield said
Could you specify ?

You mean: leave D1 at the place on the vero (C16-D16) but the other(s) mentionned "in series"? where to place it (them) ?fairfield wrote:I say leave it out, it's really only a safety. As an alternative, you could put a diode in series if you don't mind the voltage drop.
Could you specify ?
