Its quite a nice one and definitely has the fuzz factory tone, I'm not certain if its a keeper or not yet, we'll see.<br />Cheers as usual for the great layouts.<br />DaveDavehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14740063084907224625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6847048658257278783.post-7611781022148880632013-01-08T13:16:19.938+00:002013-01-08T13:16:19.938+00:00Can anyone help me convert this schematic http://...Can anyone help me convert this schematic http://www.generalguitargadgets.com/diagrams/ezface_blend_cap.jpg?phpMyAdmin=78482479fd7e7fc3768044a841b3e85a to vero?<br />It is a very good sounded fuzz.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03291921123649303070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6847048658257278783.post-7566950035812499082013-01-07T16:59:29.103+00:002013-01-07T16:59:29.103+00:00Have you got a schematic?

You can fix it by just placing a link between rows 2 and 5 on the right hand side.<br /><br />The schematic is here: http://www.forrestwhitesides.com/files/up/img/layouts/vorpal_schem.png<br />+mmirosolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02400327798106357876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6847048658257278783.post-2971715379579104102013-01-05T19:56:35.405+00:002013-01-05T19:56:35.405+00:00i just finished this one up, but i can't get i...i just finished this one up, but i can't get it to work. something is amiss here. my build is good, no bridges or anything, but it just farts out. no real sound at all, and the controls don't seem to have much effect if any at all. i used a 2N3904 for Q1, and 2N4403's for Q2 and Q3. i had a look at the layout on the effdub site, and his pcb layout seems to have some differences . i don't know. any info or ideas? the sound clip of this sounds sweet. i'd love to get it working right. thanksatomicwombathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03006504975865297012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6847048658257278783.post-25613640276422152592013-01-05T17:35:32.087+00:002013-01-05T17:35:32.087+00:00wow...looks like a very interesting build.
