Hi,
I've been scouring the VIBRACASTER thread, curious if there is an 'official' verified layout for someone interested in veroboard or P2P.
I've seen many versions in the thread; many are simple revisions or corrections
although I can't yet locate a vero layout that includes the Valvecaster's Volume, Gain and Tone as well as speed and depth for the tremolo circuit.


Is this what i'm looking for? Why is the tone control left off the vero layout?

I've heard a few sound clips and I am longing to build it.

Thanks

I've read over that thread many times... I dont believe there's anything more official than that one.

HOWEVER, you can always lay it out on Perf. That's what I did. It's almost P2P...
Gear: Epi Les Paul (archtop) w/ 490R in the neck, and SD '59N in the bridge; Silvertone 1484 w/ a WGS G15C

Still a tubey noobie. Been doing this a while, and still can't figure much out, smh.

Don't know if it will help you any?

This is a vero layout I did of the LFO portion of the vibracaster. I first buit the valvecaster minus tone on perf then later decided to add the trem.
Can't remember but I'm sure there was a vero layout of the valvecaster with tone.

Alternatively and easier....


Build this as is.

Wire 10nf cap from vol lug3 to tone lug3. Wire tone lug1&2 to ground (any hole in row b on layout).
