Wow wow wow! One question, why would you want a buffered tuner out? Seems like the point of a timer out is to get it out of your chain. I'm intrigued.

Now you're speaking my language.

I don't foresee any issues. I pour, wait about 15 minutes and then hit it with one of those long lighters to dissipate most of the air bubbles. 72 hours curing time is ideal.

Nice job man. That is a great adaptation.

NOt a pedal deal, but Levis are 40% off on their website. I finally wore out 2 pairs last month, big holes in the seat. They last forever, so paying a little more is definitely worth it.

Attached, as I said, no markings

Real tools. Straight up wire cutters. I used something like that for about 8 years also. I bought more but I haven't used them yet.

Yes, maybe can't see as in shadow of the capacitor.

I actually tried just removing the IC1 chip to check pin 4 not bent or something and replaced it and then tried plugging in again and it worked both sides until I flicked the left toggle switch to test that. Could it be the toggle - as the solder there isn't filling the holes like the  footswitches.

As an aside, I thought I'd read somewhere that not flooding holes on switches was best as it can lead to a short in the switch, which is why I tried to add solder to just one side. Maybe I misunderstood?

thanks, Rich

Not flooding the holes is no big deal as long as there's a strong connection.

I really dig those knobs.

On the gut shot, on the left presence pot, are all 6 pins soldered?

Happy thanksgiving to you sir, I plan on soldering a bit today, got most all my daily homework done.

While it's not necessary to fill in the whole eye, it's hard to tell if there's any solder at all. Without seeing the back of the board, it's hard to tell anything about the circuit. Are you getting voltage readings and you you have an audio probe to see if you're getting audio across the switch?

I have the same Hakko's and they're cheap and work very well.  That said I'd like a pair of the Erems.

Ditto. I broke mine cutting something bigger than a lead.

You know what I do appreciate about opening this thread is the intense amount of knowledge amongst us pedal geeks.  It would seem that the "pedal" part of us also reflects our quest for knowledge in general.

I don't want to get all gushy here, but it's really humbling and inspiring to be part of such an inspired portion of the population.  Everyone should have this sort of outlet and the resources attached to it.  I'd like to think we represent what "should" happen under troubleshooting circumstances.

I love this place.

You put it perfectly, this place is the best.

I couldn't agree more. I haven't gotten it, but I do worry about the long and short term memory affects. I have enough issues as it is, as I'm sure others do too.
