Joe Gagan NVN schem collection in Arons gallery

[tungngruv]

Cool, finally in one place, all the NVN schematics that I have found on the web over the last couple years, in one place at one time. Joe, once again thanks for sharing. I really believe that if an Eric Johnson, Jimi Hendrix or Robin Trower would have had the opportunity to play these, you would have been a millionaire long ago. Thanks for being the "mad scientist" professor of Fuzz Madness.

  Hey Joe Gagan, youv'e been sorely missed, Thanks for helping me develop building chops. It's great to see you here again !
  And for the schematics @ tungngruv's place!

  I'm trying to sort out how the connections are made to the wah and 'wah thing', and what that does...[medolt]...also the input bias mod...

Aron: thanks for the forum. I'm here everyday.

Joe, thanks for the work!!!! And for giving it away. Unbelievable.

Marcos Munky for filling in some of the missing schems.

John (Basic Audio): too much to thank you for so I'll just send money

Seriously, Joe's the man on a mission, I just got hooked on Joe's stuff and used the internet wayback machine to start digging stuff up. The best part was finding one of Joe Gagans bar flyers, talking to him on the phone about stuff and sending the picture to him. Get this, the drummer was playing a 5 gallon bucket for one of his drums and the band (Gagan Bros band were running almost everything through a Lab amp, if I remember correctly). Joe is seriously one great, down to earth talented musician and circuit bender. Truly a gentleman with every right to have a big head for what he's designed, yet too classy a person to ever let that happen. Thanks for giving the OK to do this Joe. You seriously rock!!!!

 Jeez, there's some really interesting stuff in there... all kinds of wierd bias controls and voicing stages. Joe's a tinkerer in the best American tradition! So many circuits, so little time...

thanks everyone. thanks tunggruv, now I know what it's like to have a groupie ( minus the sex part)

warning on some of those diagrams!

Some were quick sketches of concepts that were drawn solely to kick ideas around and should not be considered working circuits.
I will make a list of 'sketchy' (unproven) circs that are posted there, then perhaps tungngruv can put a warning on those(?)

the one marked 'wahthing' is problably full of problems. i built something like that,didn't work right but didn't note what the probs were danger danger

I forgot about that buffered/unbuffered input jack idea - that is pretty cool, you can forego the price of a switch (and real estate on the enclosure), just use the plug itself , depending on whether you insert it partway or full to make the difference. never actually built it but it really SHOULD work

Cool Joe, post a list on here as you get time and I'll put the "warning, untested" on those items. Thanks again for the permission to post these. They will be on my site soon as well but by all rights, they should defintely be here first. Joe, did you happen to see the 4 Bronto versions and the 3 different Skyripper versions? That was so cool to find those and see how your circuit evolved, they almost belong in the "Skyripper history" thread. Funny "groupie" remark also BTW!!! Thanks Joe
