Title: Kingslayer trio!
Post by: jalmonsalmon on January 29, 2014, 10:30:52 PM
Just before the holidays I purchased 3 Kingslayer boards, and had one I made for myself....
I gave this one away as a donation to my buds in FDJ in Jackson TN: (http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/30/6ezy2usu.jpg)(http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/30/zary5yny.jpg)
This one I traded for a pedal train board to my guitar player in my band:(http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/30/pudyma8y.jpg)
The finished product: (http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/30/egy6ygu9.jpg) and mine is the one to the right with the sharpie writing LOL
I have one more board left that I will make later.
The Kingslayer that is in the big enclosure has another foot switch to turn on the overdrive because my guitar player did not want it on a toggle.... I wish my 'slayer was like that hahahhah, very consistent pedal, I tried all three and I cannot hear any differences between them.

Cheers!

Man those look great!  Be careful, I think I saw a bunch of resistors trying to climb on the switch on that first build.   ;D

Did you use 5mm LED's as a clipping option?  Any difference to 3mm LED's typically used?

Oohhh FDJ I saw those guys on the winter jam tour several years back. Very cool! Klon's look great too. I'm gonna have to build one since I lost mine.

Those 5 mm LEDs have a great smooth clip to them and sound great! I encourage anyone to socket those and try whatever LEDS or diodes in that spot to taste. Yeah all those resistors on the 3PDT LOL... I had to make my own resistor values of 68k for the buffer, looks like they are going to multiply into more baby resistors hahaha. I may box up my 4th Kingslayer this weekend and try other diodes in it to see what I get... Very nice pedal IMO and I cannot be without one!
