one possible thing that may work is temporarily clipping it to the output right before the vol pot. in theory that may work if its a treble cut. I am sure people in the thread will cringe at the thought, but it just may do the job. give it a shot, and if it doesn't work you're not any worse off than when you started....

Thank Noobamp!

I really ppreciate the help, luckily I was able to get ahold of the guy who originally made the vero I'm working off of and he was able to help me out with the switch

So this project is back up and running full steam ahead....I hope to have it boxed up tonight!

dun dun DUUUN! It goes to post 2 on volume

I didn't get to finish it last night, but I'm close. Still have to connect the wires to the main board now...

ha! i wasn't far off at all! good stuff man. Im glad it worked out. the guts look good and snug so far!

He's aliiiive!

The ONLY issue I encountered after testing it was that the "more" and "less" switch settings are reversed; but that's an easy fix, especially considering that I honestly did NOT expect the pedal to work (!)

...at least not without a bit of trouble shooting.

ON TO THE PICS!

...and a look at all the spaghetti inside

Wow Ricky! That's a whole lotta stuff in there!

Here's my latest

It's largely the application circuit with tonal tweaks in the driver and recovery stages plus tails switching/buffered bypass.

I'll try to get a video demo up soon too.

Thank you for the kind words gentlemen! I added an under board gut shot for the curious

Awesome! Your pedals all look soooo clean and well thought out

Is the reverb going to be part of your product lineup?

Thanks Ricky! I think it will. I had another reverb pedal based on the original brick, but that didn't fit the 1590A theme. I like the way this one sounds a little better and it's much more versatile, so I think I'll put it in the product line. The bigger question is if I can build them affordably. The jury's still out... more numbers to run first....

This one was a little easier to get in the box

One chip fuzz. Unlike most of my other circuits, this is a one trick pony. Over the top fuzz and sustain. Great for lead lines

At the risk of overloading everyone on LPD pedals, here's another build I just finished. It's a combination of all the things I like from the various PT2399 delay circuits out there.

BTW, where is the best source for the quietest PT2399s? I've run through my old ones and need to reorder but some of the new Tayda chips are pretty noisey ie current swirl/motorboat on the output even with no input. Usually I put the pedal, grounded input, in front of this little Crate amp I have with the gain at 5 and keep trying ships until I find a "quiet" one.

Thanks all!!!

Thanks Russ! I'll have one to put up in the "man sized" category in a bit
