Hi,
I'm looking for a pre-2015 version of the Lowrider PCB.  I absolutely love the pedal, and I've got a friend that wants one.  I built the 2015 version, but we both much prefer the older version. 
Anyone?
Thanks,
Warren

Hi, just got my Dirtbag finished up.  I included all of Brian's suggested mods for the v3205 version (ie not the R21 and C14 listed in the docs, but instead the whole list of them in the errata in the forum post).  In attempting to bias the unit, I can get it to pass delayed signal, but the repeats are super crazy distorted.  Also, when biasing, I had to turn the bias trims almost completely CCW, I have a tiny amount of trim to work with before the delays don't pass anymore.  I have verified the trims, R23 and R22, everything is correct.

Any tips?  Many thanks.

I've got a bizarre problem that makes no sense to me.  First off, I don't generally put the battery option on my pedals, so I wire the DC jack to the 9V and ground on the board.  Doing this, the unit was horribly buzzy, fizzy and obviously not working correctly.  I checked everything, including of course the polarity of the DC and found nothing wrong.  So, grasping at straws, I wired a 9V snap to the board instead of the DC jack, and voila, it works perfectly.  This makes no sense, why would it work with a battery but not the DC jack?  I've tried it with 2 different 9VDC adaptors, which work with my other pedals (Sunking, Big Muff), so I know the adaptor is fine.  Measuring the voltage at the 9VDC to ground on the board I get about 11.5V with the adaptor (it runs a touch higher than 9) and 9.4V with a battery.  Any ideas?  This defies logic to me.

Thanks.....
