But how do the curves? look great ..

I've gotten that question before, maybe it's time to write a "how to" on "Perrow style DIYLC" ;D

Please do.  You're layouts are beautiful - like eye-candy.

What size has the pcb?

.1 inch pitch, count rows and columns and multiply. The image should print correctly at 300 dpi.

I am gonna have to try this! Great job and thanks for sharing that... I don't know why I never tried to use curved traces? Your boards really are very cool!!
Doesn't matter what you did to get it... If it sounds good, then it is good!

nice one perrow: 8)

btw guys, the chorus is verified too... ;)


@maiik, if perrow did the layout, you can be sure it works!!!.. ;)

So I built the spitfire on slacker's vero layout, and after I had soldered everything up, I noticed cab42's comment that C2 and C4 were switched. I had plugged it in to my amp, and with a bit of debugging (such as finding out my expensive footswitch was buggered) I got a clean, and rather tube-ish sound, with a bit of nice sounding distortion (a family member commented that it sounded like fleetwood mac). Having C2 and C4 switched wouldn't lower the gain that much would it? I am also using 2n5485 jfets instead of j201s, which i am unable to buy here in NZ, but that shouldn't lower the gain too much either. Any thoughts?
If at first you don't succeed... use bigger transistors!

slackers vero layout?...link?

the spitty v3 should go from cleanish overdrive to full on metalness..but still retain that tubey type sound...

I still have a few V3 pcb's lying around here not doing anything, if anyone wants one.

No beautiful curves, like what Pelle does, I do like those curves.

Stuff veroboard, I think it's time to buy some j201s from small bear, and a decent metal box, and also try making a PCB. Do you have any PCBs left Ronan?

^ cool glad to see someone else building this.

not sure on ronans layout, but on my pdf
http://www.aronnelson.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=47087

c16 is a 100uf. ok.


c10/11 are the caps for modern/classic switch.   i settled on 3.3n/6.8n......you may want to socket those to taste.

have fun. :icon_twisted:
