Members OnWingsOfLead Posted February 26, 2008 Members Share Posted February 26, 2008 Hey, I'm building a Dan Armstrong Green Ringer from scratch, using the schematic I found on General Guitar Gadgets. I will post everything once I get it built. I do have a couple of questions though. 1) The schematic calls for a 560k resistor as R1. The closest I have are 470k and 510k. Will using either of these be ok? 2) It calls for a 3PDT switch. I have a DPDT switch right here, what would I have to do differently to use it, or should I just suck it up and buy the 3PDT?

Members Saturnine10 Posted February 26, 2008 Members Share Posted February 26, 2008 Spend the $4 and get a 3pdt switch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members OnWingsOfLead Posted February 27, 2008 Author Members Share Posted February 27, 2008 lol, thats what I decided to do. I am doing a build of Eric Johnsons A/B box for S&G with the other switch. As for the resistor swap, will it work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Saturnine10 Posted February 27, 2008 Members Share Posted February 27, 2008 I would try and get a value as close to 560K as you could.... But 510K should work.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Deaj Posted February 27, 2008 Members Share Posted February 27, 2008 You could put a 47Kohm resistor in series with the 510Kohm if you have on on hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members OnWingsOfLead Posted February 28, 2008 Author Members Share Posted February 28, 2008 ^^I wondered about that^^ So that would work, to put another resistor behind the other so that they add up to the 560k? Awesome. I can totally do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
