Title: Klein bottle DB switches center position
Post by: befey on February 12, 2021, 08:24:57 PM
I'm almost done putting my bottle together and I starting thinking about why the DB switch is ON-ON-ON and not just ON-ON. The labels are only for the two positions. What does the center position do?

I almost had a heart attack when I realized I had ON-ON-ON switches in there and had to go check all the docs and my mouser order to make sure I got the right thing.

There's a video somewhere that goes over how everything works, it's really cool. I built mine a while back but haven't messes with it. Have you had yours for a while and just getting started?

Thanks so much! This is exactly what I was looking for. I still don't see it anywhere in the docs, but thank you!

I did just finish my Klein Bottle. Literally just got done testing each loop to make sure everything is working as it should. Thanks to a few answers on this forum and slow careful building, it's working on the first try. I couldn't be happier with it.

I bought the kit almost a year ago and have been slowly putting it together as parts that were backordered came in and as I got answers to make sure I was doing everything right.

Very nice man. I must have watched the videos and read over everything about 100 times. It's a great pedal.
