PT recommendation for pedal
« on: January 29, 2022, 05:11:56 pm »
I'm interested in building a tube based gain pedal, something along the lines of Matchelss HotBox.....  Does anyone have a suggestion for PT?  I'm thinking HT around 250 - 0 - 250 with 6.3V taps.

Is there a toroidal design possible available?

A schematic, layout, and hi-rez pics are very useful for troubleshooting your amp. Don't wait to be asked. JUST DO IT!

Here another interesting tube pedal with two small 1am 120 to 12-0-12, with voltage doubler.

Check the attachments!
Theory is when everyone knows everything but nothing works, practice is when stuff works but nobody knows why !!!

Thanks!

Looks like the 261C will be the winner, where's the best place to get Hammonds?

Great prices, fast shipping, best selection . . .   by far the best for Conus.
