Yet another Fuzz Face Layout

[newfish]

So - having spent a little while figuring out how to get from 'schematic' to 'layout' - here's my first attempt.

I'll be building this probably tomorrow evening, and can verify then.

Until then, here's my first shot using the excellent 'Layout Creator' from this very forum - which, Beta or not, is pretty darned good.

...hope that image comes out OK...

Watch out for the track break under C1.

I haven`t compared your layout closely to the schematic but don`t forget C1 and C3 are polarised. I can immediately see that, if desired, the whole layout could be tightened up but in any case good luck. Best way to learn, just get stuck in.

Can you still get 20uf caps?

Answering my own question.

VR2 you have lugs 3 and 1 reversed...lug 3 should come from the output cap, and lug 1 should go to ground/+9v ...unless you want the pot to work backward.

VR1 lug 3 is on the wrong side of the 100k resistor...move it down 2 tracks

Nice tight layout...good job !

Oops.

Simple mistakes to make I guess - and another reminder not to jump into building Tube Amps straight away... 

I'll correct them when I get home this evening.

Thanks for looking - and for the excellent software.

Updated now.

Thanks once again for your software and help.

Will post sound clips once I've build it...

Cheers!
