Ok so i have jumped in and started my first build. I am making the "Son of Screamer" on a vero board.
I got it mostlt done tonight. But had to stop as i realised i am missing 2 types of resistor - 470k and 220r.
I did order them but they didnt come with everything else. So now i have to wait till they arrive...

I cant wait to get it done and see how i went. If it works i will try the TS-808 next.

Here is my layout Hoping to do it etched mirror style.

great, what programme did you use for that image?...

DonB · May 23, 2011, 07:29:55 AM

Photoshop. Found a pdf with all the parts.

Other pedals i plan are
TS-808
Dr Boogie
Little Angel Chorus
Rebote Delay 2.5
EH LPB1 Boost

Also a reverb, flanger, phaser and comp (but no idea on what pedals for these).

wow a pdf with all those parts?....could you post it up here so we/i can use it....pretty please!..

or a link to it...

btw you wont be dissapointed with the boogie..

go for the echobase instead of the rebote...much better delay...

.great pedal...cheers rob.

Here is where i got the pdf

I plan to make them all on vero if possible.
When i comes to delay, i only use it slightly for me leads. Dont do big times or anything like that.
So why is the echobase better?

cheers don, that'll come in very handy,,thanks.,

heres the differences between the delays...the echobase has a nice modulation feature and trails on/off...better volume too...

hi don, how do you lift the images out of the pdf?..

i use inkscape

when i try to lift a knob for instance i only get the select/hand tool...but it wont let me copy that and paste into inkscape!..

any ideas?..cheers rob.

Sorry i use photoshop and its as simple as selecting and coping what you need. Dont know how to do it in inkscape.

DonB · May 23, 2011, 04:49:41 PM
