Sam Ash Fuzz Layout

[Easywider]

Interested In Building & Using Dragonflys Vero Layout . Does Anyone Have A Diagram Showing How To Wire The Pots/Jacks & Switch In . Any Help Greatly Appreciated !

Thanks ,

Chris

Can Anyone Help ?

You mean this one? http://www.aronnelson.com/gallery/main.php/v/DRAGONFLY-LAYOUTS_0/album18/album144/SAM_ASH_FUZZ_VERO.gif.html

Wire lug1 of the attack and volume pots to ground, there should be room on the bottom row of the vero.
Wire Lug2 of the attack pot and lug3 of the volume pot as shown.
Lug3 of the attack pot is then your INPUT and lug2 of the volume pot is your OUTPUT. Then just wire the rest of the circuit up using whatever method you usually use for the switch.

Have a look at GGG for different switch wiring methods http://www.generalguitargadgets.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=33&Itemid=27 you probably want one of the truebypass versions.

Hope that makes sense

look at some of the other vero layouts in the folder as well..should give you some visual help.

oh..and I just posted a "fix"..there was a trace cut missing in the old layout... its corrected now.

would bc 109b work here ?

[Easywider]

Was Told That A BC108B Is The Typical European Part # , But A Standard 2N222 Would Work Just Fine Too .Also Told That The circuit is a treblebooster distortion and the gain of the circuit comes from the first transistor also then clipped by the diodes and so the DS66 transistor(Original Used In The Circuit) has very little to do: it won't even be overdriven due to the clipping diodes allready limiting signal entering the buffer......

Anyways , Just Had Another Question , Would A 50k Linear Work For The Tone , Don't Have A 10k Linear On Hand ! If So , How Much Of A Difference Would It Make ?

Thanks ,

Should also be fine...

Thanks Again !

Have All The Parts Now & Just Wanted To Make Sure This Layout Was Verified/Working , Anyone Else Build Using This Layout With The Fix  !

Thanks ,

Anyone ?

Been a long time...

I just built this one today and there are 2 other errors.

1. The 0.047 uf cap just before the diode pair is connected to the wrong spot.  The "bottom" needs to go up 1 row to where the 22k resistor is connected to the transistor.
2. There is another trace cut missing.  Make the cut at 10 across and 2 down.  Next to the "top" of the second 0.047 after the diode pair.

Check these against the schematic on the bottom.

Something like that then...

Add one more trace cut and that's it!
