I know you wont believe it but this one is verified too. Lol. Great sonding overdrive. Plenty of volume and gain. Very touch sensitive. I like this one. Thanks Matt
Question for ya. Is this naturally a low output circuit. I’m not sure if I did something wrong or if it’s the way it is. If I turn the volume all the way up and the gain all the way down it is way below unity. If I turn the gain up I can get just above unity but very overdriven sound. Is this nature of the beast. I have read of some people complaining about low output on the original. Just want to make sure I didn’t do something wrong. Also should should I be biased about 4.6. I’m not , I’m at about 2.6 on all 3.

You are on a roll, man! Ok, I'll tag it.
DeleteBjörns stuff is always solid for sure.
Alamondm,What diodes you replace for 2A1200 or you were lucky to find originals thanks
DeleteDid some reading before I built mine and 1N4001s came up as a close replacement. Sounds great!

ReplyDeleteI notice all this after boxing and running through my amp, was using headphones first go round.
DeleteGot it worked out. Had a bad transistor. Ended up using J113s. I kinda like them better.
ReplyDeleteEros all preference.
Thanks for the info. Good to know that J113 works fine since the stock starnsistors is pretty rare nowadays.
