I've just finished a bb preamp clone on a Fuzzdog board and I'm hitting unity gain with the volume around 9 o'clock. Has anyone else made a bb preamp and can tell me if that's normal. I've checked his schematic against one on freestompboxes and they use the same parts values throughout. I had an original bb preamp a few years ago and unity was around 12 on the volume pot.
Probably just a different taper for the volume pot.
Your probably right I just thought it was very early to hit unity gain with the volume pot at 9 o'clock.
