At full gain, using neck pick up, my klone build is going into oscillation on some notes. Sounds fine on lower gain settings. This is not a setting I regularly use, but I still want to eliminate the problem.
Any thoughts?
A long time ago, I read about some potential stability issues in the Klon design that can sometimes show up at higher gain settings. It has to do with some component value mismatch/tolerance issue or something more intelligent sounding ;), but I can't quite remember which parts cause the problem....
Best solution is to never turn the gain higher than 2 o'clock. That's the end of the useful range for that control in my opinion. YMMV.
I figured it was a perfect storm of mismatched tolerances or something like that.
It's not a big deal. I don't play at that setting, but I just stumbled across it and wondered what caused it.
What sort of op amp are you using?
