I
finally finished my BJFE Blueberry build!
This thing is all kinds of awesome. Gorgeous tones all across the board. There are times when you have it on and it doesn't sound like it's doing much, then you turn it off and wonder where all your tone went! Had a few mishaps with the switch board but now that I've tried it it's jumped to the forefront of my list for inexpensive, effective and space-conscious switching. A note to anyone trying to use this, NEC dual-coil latching relays like the EA2-5TNFG work well in this circuit and can be had for far, far less than the Panasonic parts originally specified. I got six of the aforementioned for $15 off eBay compared to $6-8 each plus whatever insane shipping big retailers want to charge for a TQ2. Very pleased overall. It would also appear that Tayda's BF244A are good, thought I'd mention it among the controversy about Tayda's FETs.
This pic is slightly wrong, I had to rewire the LED so imagine the logic wire is black not red and that's what it's like in reality
And a shot of my two Blueberries (maroon one is the Bearfoot version). In the middle there you see my next project, SWAH board from GuitarPCB:
I'm feeling like making a modded MP version just to complete the set
Through all the worry and pain we move on
