Wow, thanks a lot! That's a wealth of information. I'll be reading this a few times, very informative fo rthe point where i'm at now. Thanks for taking the time, very much appreciated.
I have come across 'the technology of the fuzz face' a few times, and you're right, it's a bit daunting. But maybe every time i'll read something sticks :)
I will do a better search on the sites you mentioned. I really want to have a better understanding of what I'm doing. I bought a book for basic electronics, but hard to filter what is good to learn and what might be of any importance.
So beardboarding would be great. I thought I'd start with an Electra distortion. I thought i understood the schematic, and layed it out on my breadboard. Unfortunately no sound... Maybe I was fighting to get the legs in too much, or didn't put them in deep enough, I don't know.. I'll have to start that over again maybe.
From your story that will be key in really experiencing what functionality everything has.
Could I bother you guys with another question maybe?
In the folowing schematic.. If I was to add a volume control to the top schematic. It means Lug 1 to ground, Lug 2 to output and that line from the outputcap to Lug 3 of a volume pot, right?
It's a lot of questions about Vox circuits haha, I know. Basically I'm trying to box a Vox treblebooster, midfi tape fuzz, Vox Distortion Booster en Vox repeat percussion in one box.
It's quite ambitious for me I realise, but hey, who knows. Just not sure about the order yet.
