Members Faldoe Posted December 11, 2012 Members Share Posted December 11, 2012 Anyone else feel like a total {censored}ty asshole when they botch a build? I built a Pharaoh clone and got it to work but it would start to get hiccups and then get squirrely. I'd think I fixed it and play it for a bit before it would do it again. I did some desoldering thinking maybe there was a cold spot or something and not its all {censored}ed up Sucks too cause it sounded great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Aaron SS Posted December 11, 2012 Author Members Share Posted December 11, 2012 Squirrely how? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faldoe Posted December 11, 2012 Members Share Posted December 11, 2012 Like noise and crackles would start to occur - the guitar would still pass through though, and you wouldn't hear it unless I stopped playing.Now its decayed into all out nothing - no signal passing through.Its built on vero which I always tend to {censored} up some how. I made extra sure prior to soldering all the trace cuts were good and clean. And no bridged strips either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members fortytwo Posted December 13, 2012 Members Share Posted December 13, 2012 Any of you guys want some EHX Holier Grail guts, it's yours for free, if you want it..?It's a fully laoded PCB, with knobs, jacks, switches, LEDs, and the manual.. It needs a new enclosure, and som light wiring (DC jack and ground connection). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul_Caruso Posted December 13, 2012 Members Share Posted December 13, 2012 FortyTwo - I'd love the Holier Grail, I actually have a stack of old EHX enclosures here! Let me know if you'd rather have one of them than get rid of the board! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mmolteratx Posted December 14, 2012 Members Share Posted December 14, 2012 Think I'm finally happy with my Klon board. Trace routing isn't the prettiest, but it's not too bad and shouldn't cause any noise problems. Will make sure once I prototype it. Soft touch bypass FTW.

I built up a Klon using Aaron's, then gave it to my friend for his birthday. Now I'm missing the Klonaid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Axe_34 Posted December 15, 2012 Members Share Posted December 15, 2012 2-in-1 box o' doom. Tight fit, but I was able to get it all in. Left side (looking at it from the gutshot), EHX 66 Big Muff Pi (the so-called "Triangle" version), right side, EHX 77 Big Muff Pi (the so-called "IC" or "Op Amp" version). The switch on the Triangle side is a scooped/flat/boosted mids switch. The enclosure is Mammoth's new Tiger Red Sparkle, although, while nice, is really more of an orange. Goes well with the Orangish-amp nature of the huge sound of the circuits. They even sound good stacked, which I didn't expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mmolteratx Posted December 19, 2012 Members Share Posted December 19, 2012 I finally got around to modding my Electric Mistress. Put a little baby board in underneath the main one so I can run it off of 9V without losing any headroom. Also rewired the bypass switch because I didn't like how the Dice Works guy did it, and swapped the LED for a brighter red one. Left both 9V snaps in, wired in parallel so you can use one or two, two lasting longer before a battery swap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Johansolo Posted December 20, 2012 Members Share Posted December 20, 2012 one half is a yet-to-be released eq pedal im working the logistics on, the other half is a BBE sonic stomp. the art and done by ormsby custom guitars to match this brutal custom multiscale 7 string...

Members openwater Posted December 20, 2012 Members Share Posted December 20, 2012 It's probably been covered a ton before but does anyone have any specs for cool DS-1 mods? This will be my first time trying to mod anything and have no real electronics background but the pedal was given to me so I figured I'd try to maybe do something like the JHS "Lexi Drive" mod. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Reaganomics! Posted December 20, 2012 Members Share Posted December 20, 2012 Originally Posted by mmolteratx Soft touch bypass FTW.
