Diefet V1.21 build report (w/ pics and sound samples)

[phaseman]

 Just wanted to share this with you, mostly because of those who are not sure if they want to build this mighty beast  .
I'm more than satisfied and I just loooove this circuit. Here are the "mods":
-treble pot   -> schematic calls for 250k, I didn't have one so I used 470k with two 270k resistors in parallel to each lug
-opamp       -> I used OPA2134
-R25           -> I used 100ohm
-power        -> charge pump w/ output voltage of 17.1 V


( I couldn't find better knobs at the time...)



About the recording and sound samples... I play a copy of Les Paul (Vantage, made in Japan, in the 80'es), amp is combo Carlsbro Rebel with one 12 inch celestion speaker, and I used only clean channel for the recordings. I used a laptop mic, so the sound is just to provide an information... The wah is from tonepad (tnx Francisco  ), and bassballs from topopiccione electronics (tnx Alex  ). Sorry about the not so good playing, I have a battle w/ time so I was in a hurry  .

Sound clips sound really good.  What kind of enclosure is that?

[phaseman]

Tnx

It was some kind of an industrial box w/ two switches... I bought it on junkyard couple years a go. I think I have a photo of it in its previous state, I'll find it and attach it later.

I was just looking at your Photobucket page.  You've got some great enclosures in there.  Are they all "junkyard finds"?

[phaseman]

Yes, I've found many of them on junkyards, an flea markets... (OTAcomp, CE2, echobase, tonemender, psu...) You can find pictures of these boxes when I bought them, in "proces" album.
Still, I have severel box yet to be used for my pedals  .
