MXR + / MXR+ / MXR Plus - Overdrive / Distortion
The earliest version of the MXR+ used an LM741CN integrated circuit, as Pedal Area states there is only a small difference between this IC and the UA741CP (which I already had in my parts stash) but since these are fairly cheap and I'm going for vintage accuracy as much as possible I decided to buy some LM741CN. It also uses 1N270 germanium diodes (which I had never ever heard of before) so I had to track some of those down, which was easy enough on ebay.
Jordan BossTone - 2nd Revision w/ min resistor
Here's a layout based on the Jordan Bosstone, with a few changes. I've built one of these now and they sound pretty good.
Janglebox Rev. 1
A fellow 'brother in arms' has asked me to modify his 2-knob version of the Janglebox for a volume control recently, so I thought I'd post this.
BAJA Tube Driver / BK Tube Driver Repro
The 'BAJA' Tube driver is basically a replica / reverse engineered BK Butler Tube Driver pedal. I absolutely LOVE the BK Butler tube driver, it was and still is a staple in many famous guitar players' distortion tone. Most notably, David Gilmour of Pink Floyd. This build is not simple, or easy so keep that in mind before tackling this one!
