Title: Most commonly used parts list ?
Post by: DLM on June 03, 2012, 05:19:06 PM
Hello guys , I just bought a huge grab bag of parts on the bay . 1200 assorted resistors , electrolytic  caps , diodes etc for $ 20.00 . I made the offer on it and forgot about it . Well I had to pay for it , and what I got is a Huge bag of mixed parts and nothing is labeled . It will take forever to sort all this stuff out ! What a Brain Fart ! Yes another Noobie mistake !  So I will probably put it back up on bay . Do any of you guys have a " Most commonly used parts list for pedal building ?  Thanks

Great questions, and though it was pretty buried, I used the search function to find this: http://www.madbeanpedals.com/forum/index.php?topic=563.0 (http://www.madbeanpedals.com/forum/index.php?topic=563.0)

You could pass it on, but chances are you've got lots of useable stuff there.

I will note that since I made that post, Tayda has become a great, inexpensive supplier. They are a a better supplier of caps, resistors, ICs and Trannies than many other places.
