Hey Jimi
I just finished my honeydripper, sounds sweet but a bit different to yours.
I know there are a million and one variables but I have a couple of questions about your build:

When you say you built it stock apart from from a 1n34a and 1n914 (1n4148?) in the clipping section, I presume you stuck to the BOM rather than Brian's mod suggestions?

Secondly, when you said you tried some different ICs until you were happy, what did you try and what did you settle on?

Thanks again for inspiring me to build this pedal!

Dirty love to ya

I think the 150k would be ok, there are some mods that lower the value of this resistor but you could socket it and change it later if you need to.

great builds, I'm a fan of futurama and queen so the tonebender  works for me;D

the alien egypt theme is a great choice too.

I'm jealous of the guy getting that.
fortunately I got my pcb in the post today

Well technically you could with a DIN cable, the trickier bit would be if you want to switch between a pedal and a pot. You'd need a 6pdt or 2 3pdts which is somewhat less elegant.

The sound cloud link didn't work for me but I found it anyway.

I ran the clip through some Redwirez cab impulses and it sounds amazing!
Great pedal, really amp like.

edit: oops, misread the post.

If you really think it will be a while til you get any 47r I'd probably socket them for now.
I don't think you'll damage anything by using 43r, if it sounds ok then I wouldn't worry.

Nice work and good call on the shielded jacks!

I had the same problem on my ZPM, so I just cut a piece of 0.5mm aluminium sheet, drilled a small hole for a ground wire, taped it up and slid it between the board and jacks.
It makes everything a bit of a squeeze but the clock noise seems to be gone, even with very high gain.

I like this pedal a lot more now.

Dario Argento in the house!

What the clearance like between the jacks and board on the Honeydripper?

what caps are you using, are they the epcos from mouser?

I need to start my aquaboy soon so I'll be following this pretty closely:)

Thanks Brian, sounds great.

just ordered a bunchastuff.
excited

Brian, got any teasers for the Fat Pants Jr?

I've started getting into 1590a builds and like everyone says, thems is addictive!

What's the Kraken?

It's the Mutron Micro V I've been working on.
