  1. Hi! I have done like 20 layouts now and i want to do more. Thank you very much for doing these layouts :) I dont now is there any other way to request for layout but can you do layout Boss ce-1 preamp section? There is schematics Pedalpcb Celsius Preamp. https://docs.pedalpcb.com/project/Celsius-PedalPCB.pdf

    And sorry about my bad english :D

    Thank you :)

  2. Hey Fuzzhead
    On the layout there is 2 connections to Switch 3. Is this correct?
    On the schematic it states " Sw 1 : Bypass shown in buffered bypass position (fx off) and shows the by pass switch to be a 3pdt switch
    Could you clear up the by pass switch wiring for me? It's all I have left to do before firing this up. I tried figuring it out looking at the schematic but when I look at it all I hear and see is .........................................

  3. Yes, there's still something wrong with the switch, and I found the 47k resistor to the ground should be placed before the 1k resistor in the output.

    After posting my issues with this pedal on another forum , a cool guy named micmac pointed out the issues to me.
    I - the switch 3 connection on the left side of the board is actually switch 1
    2 - the 47k resistor going to ground and the output jack should not go to the out jack but goes to switch 2
    mic mac suggested removing the 47k resistor and soldering it directly to lug 2 and lug 5
    3 - The 3.3 resistor going to pin 2 of ic2 should be 3.6k
    4 - the 10 uf electrolytic going to volume 3 should be reversed so the positive is going to volume 3.
    Having done all the above it is now working BUT my build is pretty noisy even for a high gain pedal. I'm thinking it's my shoddy wiring
