Boss DD-3 repaired

Checked the switch for D.TIME due to the problem of changing from 200mS to 800mS of delay. Found it’s not the cause. Had the wiring from the switch resoldered and it’s hey, it’s back in normal operation! Also fixed the knob for E.LEVEL wich was glued in place.

Mullard GE diodes

Found these vintage OA5 germanium diodes in the box of vintage stuff. Beutiful diodes indeed. Got to make something with them, just don’t know what? Anyone care for a custom built pedal with these beuties under the hood and in what circuit?

New pedal under design update 2

Here we are in the work of my latest design. I’ve fitted the complete circuit in a Hammond 1590B chassie. Though the tweaking continues.

A possible new Zeta Sound pedal?

Stay tuned for more info. Earlier post.
