Bajaman's overdrive/distortion circuit based on the Mesa Dual Rectifier high gain channel with switchable tone stack.
Original thread and schematic available on the FSB forum here.
The layout should fit in a 1590B box.
Here's a collection of vero (stripboard) and tagboard guitar and bass effect layouts that we have put together covering many classic and popular effects in growing numbers. Many of these have been posted on freestompboxes.org, so check that site out for great discussions on building your own effect pedals. Enjoy the builds and please also visit us on Facebook and Twitter

Hi, im counting 48 cuts..?
ReplyDeleteYep,
DeleteI'm counting 48 too :)
The links and cuts don't match in the bottom right corner (near the 3k3 and 2k7)
DeleteThanks. It's been updated.
DeleteThe pinout of the TL061 is wrong. Pin 8 is NOT the + power! There are several other errors, too. This is NOT verified!
ReplyDeleteThe layout does not say Verified.
DeleteV+ should have gone to TL061's pin 7 and there was an extra 1nF cap between pins 1 and 2 of the bottom TL062 (wouldn't have been a big deal).
Those two issues have been fixed and from what I can see it matches the schematic.
What are those several errors?
Still waiting for an answer....
DeleteHi Alex - the layout is missing the 1M resistor which biases the gate of JFET buffer. I think if this is fixed, the layout will be OK.
DeleteHi Frank! The 1M going to vbias? It's there, next to the TL062's pin 4.
DeleteHmm...you're right! Sorry - I missed that! Someone at FSB reported some strange behavior with the JFET, and maybe he was using an older version of the layout. Anyhow, hopefully will verify your current layout as it looks OK.
DeleteI finally got my 2SK117 transistors and got this going last night. I can verify that it works. It also sounds amazing.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing, nice post! Post really provice useful information!
