Got it to work. Wierd though :? I realised that when i turned my guitar volume to '2' it quietened up. So I made it with 3 pots, 'gain 1', 'gain 2', and 'volume'. Gain 1 & 2 just to keep it simple for all the silly people out there. Now to get some headphones that can handle over 250mW. My current earplugs suck.

'gain 1' is the pre-LM386 volume,
'gain 2' is the LM 386 gain
'volume' speaks for itself.

It's kinda cool because you can get this mild distortion with gain 1 at about 4 but turn it to 3 and it's clean. :mrgreen: I like it!

But it works! :D My little plastic casing is frying up right now, painted it shiny silver :mrgeen: How cool is that!
I don't like Holland. Nobody has the transistors I want.
