Tools, Tones and Toys for Guitarists
This has now been traced by Aion FX – it turns out the NG-3 is very different to the NG-2. Miles apart… While this still makes for a decent fuzz, it’s NOT a NG-3. Layouts have been removed for this reason. Here’s the link to the trace The Pete Cornish NG-3 is pretty much the … Read more
Requested by Alltrax74, a phaser based on MXR Phase 90 with some bells and whistles. Schematic is avaiable HERE Note that the J FETs should be matched for best effect and CLR 1 value is 47k in the schematic but you could probably go lower if you not using a super bright LED
A requested circuit but bear in mind that it is rather big, has an onboard charge pump for 15v-15v operation, and has a quite complicated setup due to five multiturn trimmers. I’ve omitted the (for now) the Osc, Pitch, Carrier and Modulation jacks but might add it later on if is requested but it will … Read more
Something of a classic and many other designs are based on the MXR Distortion + so no real need for an introduction. MXR DISTORTION PLUS – VERO LAYOUT DISTORTION PLUS ANALYSIS There’s an excellent analysis of the Distortion + here on Electrosmash including a schematic (be prepared for some maths) Note that I have used alternate pot … Read more
This is one of the first circuits I ever built due to the simplicity, and it’s hard to go past as a simple boost with a bit of fattening up of the signal. The Echoplex EP-3 preamp doesn’t provide tons of gain, but it does work very nicely as a slight boost, or as an … Read more

This pedal comes in two options, one that has an onboard charge pump for 24v operation and one without so here is two layouts for it…. *Edit* 9v version is now verified.
Got some request for Overdrive and Distortion in the the new JHS 3 range. Was a bit hesistant at first since those are basically a Tubescreamer and a Rat with some simple mods….not “mostly own designed”;-). First up a Tubescreamer….sorry JHS 3 Series Overdrive.
