I would take the 500kc and put a 470k resistor between lugs 1 & 3.  see if that works for you.  at worst, it will do until you get a replacement.

fwiw I got my 250kC at mammoth

Thanks for the reply :) I´ll try it and see if it works fine :)

I emailed them ,they have backorder on some C taper pots in my order.
They offered to ship the partial order , which I agreed on. damn them! been waiting ages.

I had the same problem. I ordered the 250kC pot from Futurelec, but didn´t receive any parts for a month. I started asking about my order and they said they don´t have 250kC pots. They should´ve let me know about that earlier. Then I decided to get 100kC and 500kC pots. Now I´m wondering which one would work better as the MIX pot? Does anyone think it makes a big difference or is the working range shorter with 100kC and longer with 500kC? Or should I use the 500kC with some resistor? Or can I use 250kA wired backwards?

Thanks for the reply! I´ll go through the connections and try to see what´s wrong. I´ll try to post pictures of my bowl of spaghetti later  ;D

Tech Help - Projects Page / Deadringer boost switch
July 12, 2011, 04:51:12 PM
Hi everyone!

I finished building the Deadringer, but I have a question about the boost switch. Can I use a DPDT switch or does it have to be 3PDT? I just wired a DPDT switch for the boost but it doesn´t work right. The pedal does sound really great but the boost isn´t working. I guess the easiest solution would be changing the switch but if a DPDT would work...

Thanks for the help in advance!
