DIY Pedal Tips: Eyelet Board Build Walkthrough
In this video, we'll walk you through the build process for an eyelet board pedal build. This build is for a one-knob germanium Fuzz Face, though the process is similar for other circuits. The Fuzz Face has a very low parts count, so it is an excellent choice for a first-time build.
The one tricky part of a germanium fuzz face build is transistor selection, as the original circuit is picky about transistor specifications and can sound poor with the wrong specs (which will result in the circuit being "biased" incorrectly). One of the most common ways to mitigate this issue is to use a trim pot in place of the 8.2k resistor, which we have done in this build. The trim pot allows for making adjustments to the bias, which allows for a wider range of transistors to be used.
Note that PNP silicon transistors can also be used in this build.

DIY Pedal Tips: Board installation without drilling

In this video we'll show you how you can avoid drilling but still easily mount a board that typically would be screw-mounted. This can improve the external appearance, avoid the need for drilling holes with tight tolerances, and allow you to position the board exactly from the inside of the enclosure.

    @jacksonmasco Před 25 dny

    i've always hated the extra high end frequencies from heavy distortions and fuzzes, so i've had to tune the gain like crazy a saturator sounds like it'd eliminate this; in layman's terms, even at max your tone still sounds more melodic than a high gain fuzz would give when playing chords, for example super informative video, thank you 🙏

      very different speakers. the BB100 is sweet, detailed and warm. the Stealth 80 is mid-scooped, modern and aggressive. Is you play classic tones, BB100. i you play higain, ultra lead and ultra clean, them maybe the Stealth 80'.

  • @jfxberns

    1) You don't show how the bias probes are connected--though you do show them being removed. 2) You show the signal on the oscilloscope, but you don't explain what points the problems are connected to to get that signal. 3) What volume setting do you use to test? 4) I see a waveform on the oscilloscope. Do you need an input signal to do the biasing? Remember, this is for beginners!

    looks like a pretty decent amp kit though.... pretty good price to get into a point to point kit amp. ( a lot easier to work on, for the cost of terminal strips ) the power trany looks bigger than my amp's tranny, maybe not though, about the same, mine is full wave rectification ( no secondary center tap )......Ooo....I just noticed it's a Hammond....I can't zoom in on the sticker, which one is that?

  • @RulgertGhostalker
    @RulgertGhostalker Před 2 měsíci

    8 Watts ? max plate is 300vdc, and my EL-84 runs at 270vdc ( 90% ) but the amp is called a " 5 watt ".... I mean I am guessing it puts out about 6 watts, but that's just guessing. what's the B+ spec on that?

    Shuguang had a fire in in their factory (neighbors factory) that damaged about 75% of the manufacturing area. This closed their plant with a long & slow rebuild ahead PS Vane was starting production about same time. They hired many Shuguang workers and managers. I have 12) Siemens copy EL-34's labeled TAD and use them in my PrimaLuna Dialog Premium HP amp. It uses 8. Another pair of monoblocs is Atma-Sphere M60's. They use 8) 6AS7G tubes / chassis in OTL design.
