Guvnor PCB Layout

I have been thinking if there is anyone that have a different PCB layout for the Guvnor than the one that is avalible on GGG ? I would like to have a better clean look of the PCB and better organized as well.. anyone know anything about it ?

Perkla

Maybe i have to create my own PCB layout.. :D

I made one quite a while ago, but it has the jacks and 3pdt all on the pcb, maybe if you wanted to use it you could alter it and remove the jacks and bypass footswitch.

Please at least have 1 forum post before sending me a PM demanding something.

Sure.. i would like to have a look at the both verisons.. :D  would be cool to see :D

Yes i have seen that one.. but it does not have a clipping switch and i dont like that. Clipping is good i think.. i like it alot.

If you are wanting to create your own board layout you can very easily add a clipping switch to that layout... if you use a rotary switch you could choose from many different clipping options and just leave out D1 and D2 and attach it to the two pads for D2... You could have possibly 10 different clipping options using different diode combinations...

Thats cool.. but i only would like to have one clipping switch, i am not very good at schematics and stuff like that so.. i dont know where to put the clipping option on the tonepad Guvnor PCB layout.

Hi

I should have a PCB, based on Tonepad layout, with clipping switch "on board", it's quite "raw" but IIRC it's working, it should be about 8x5cm, let'e me dig it out form the HD and I'll post it in a while.

That would be awesome.. :D

here you go!

as I said before a little bit raw, but verified and working ;)

those are ExpressPCB and ExpressSCH files you can download and work on them to modify to your needs.

Thanx.. but i cant open those files in Express PCB... :S  i use "Open" and the program does not find the .pcb files... maybe its not .pcb files ?

you need to click on the above link then, on the new page, you click on "Download file, then you can open them, if you, as I suppose, just right click and save on above link I think you save the html code ;)

let me know.

Yes i clicked on the link and then on "Download File" and saved it to my computer.. but no i cant open it.. are u sure its the program Express PCB and not PCB Express ?

arma61


sure it's ExpressPCB and ExpressSCH files !  ;)

probably they've been saved like this

Marshall Guvnor D_pcb
Marshall Guvnor D_sch

try to save them with a dot instead of the underscore sign or..send me a PM with your email and I'll send them to you privately.

Yes.. i renamed the files with a dot and it seems to work now.. :D

Do u have a wire diagram for this PCB layout ?  Pretty cool with the clipping option as well :D  must be possible to wire this so that all 4 diodes can be used at the same time ? that will give more gain ?

A partslist would be cool to.. :D

Thanx ALOT... very good ppl u are .. very helpfull for me and others.. :D

I was thinking if the pads on the PCB layout are to smal to be able to solder ? i tested to print the PCB layout and they are really smal.. maybe will work.. ?
