and my layout here

EDIT: USE THE SECOND LAYOUT CAUSE THIS ONE HAS THE DIODE IN THE WRONG WAY

Very cool! Which mosfet should be used?

[ξεναγος νεκροπολης]

Thanks mate.they' re connected as clipers. So my guess is whatever you got.2n7000 maybe?i'm not familiar with that kind of use with mosfets though, so.......!!

OK, so had a spare bit of time today and noticed this, so built it. Strange thing is when i plug it in half the pedals in my chain turn off. Ive gone through all the usual culprits and all seems fine. In all my builds i have never had one do that before. I used 2N5457s and 2N7000 for the MOSFET clippers. Any suggestions?
Nice layout!

EDIT: It may be that i have a dodgy DC socket, not that i have had one before, but its possible. I 'll check that later during the week and post back.

Great Layout Savvas!
You need to invert D1. It is wrongly orientated.

ooooo!!!
thanks for that Alex!


HERE IS THE RIGHT ONE

Hey Hozy!
hope you didn't burned any other pedal or your supply from my mistake! as Alex found, i had the D1 the wrong way.

[Hozy31]

Thanks Savvas. Fortunately not it just seemed to switch the power off to them. I will try and get time to verify it later.

[Hozy31]

Verified!!! This is a really good Fuzz/Distortion. Had a couple of dodgy 4547s in there so soldered up some SMD J201s and biased the appropriate drains to 4.5v. Worth a build IMO. Cheers Savvas

Nice!
I'm thinking of putting this and the Ziggy in one box.

[ξεναγος νεκροπολης]

that's great news mate! i'll build that one too asap!
cheers!

Yeah, parts ordered.   I don't care if Pete Thorn used this and now doesn't .. It sounds amaze-sauce.  I cant wait to jam it.  Thanks Savvas
