Hey all,
I'm building an EA Tremolo with the ROG layout. http://runoffgroove.com/eatremolo.html
I am missing the two  .47 caps so I have socketed where they will go. I have a couple of .47 electrolytic caps laying around. Can I use them to test the circuit? If so, How would I arrange them for the correct polarity?

Thanks for any help!

It's worth a try, but odds are it won't work for long. You do have parts on order, right?

In response to the questions in the forum - PCB Layout for Musical Effects is available from The Book Patch. Search "PCB Layout" and it ought to appear.

Thanks R.G. I was going to try and trade for a couple. I left them out of a huge order I received last week. D'oh :icon_rolleyes: How would I figure out the polarity of the caps? I'd hate to fry anything and may just wait for the right ones.

you don't need to worry about frying anything.

Cool! My trade list is up in the sale/trade section if anybody has a couple of caps.

Thanks,
