IDA Tusk OD Proto

[GrindCustoms]

Tusk Overdrive proto is verified, this layout is the most easy to populate klone i ever did..... same for boxing.

Really happy that i've got my main Drives ready... i finally have couple things to offer for the initial product launch.



PCB comes with a 2PDT footswitch daughter board... but i completely forgot to order some..... :roll:



First to find the mistake gets a proto pcb!

Nice.  Easy build klone at last.

You ran out of 82nf caps.

[Tremster]

The mistake is of course in the shiny pink finish you intended!
Nice Klon layout!

What's wrong is that the top right pot (whatever that is) is not set to 11!

Are there extra LED or pot shaft pilot holes under the bottom edge of the volume and tone control knobs?

[micromegas]

Cannot find an error, but I'm cannot figure out what are that pair of connection points between D1 and R7 lower right quadrant

OK -> I'll respond myself -> LED

THat's the only thing I see.  Although I think Rej normally drills holes for the little pot lugs, just not sure they're supposed to go all the way through.

They seem like holes for pot tags and I checked with por orientation and those are ok for me.

The only thing I could thing missing is another resistor between lugs 2 and 5 of the switch to complete the buffered bypass (but that resistor could be in the pcb too....)

Nice build (and layout), Rej.

I'm going to go with Tremster and the shiny pink enclosure mistake.

Funny how I can see the tabs now that I've had my coffee.  Wow.

You didn't use those wizard's beard diodes. Just plain old human made ones.

This!

First reply and WIN! I can't seem to find my mouser bag of 82nf.. so i went with a 100nf...

Nice Klon layout!

Hahahahaha! I like to see builds in pink but it's not a color that i personnaly favor.

It's the Gain, never i'll have that set to max on guitar does'nt do it for me, but on bass.... it's the way to go!

I drill the pot nubs hole on all of my build, personnal or commissioned, it's the only way to go for me.

Exact!

That resistor is on-board.

There's only one fix to do on this proto before i order the full production batch, the hole diameter for the 1N4001 and Zener diodes are a bit too small, the lead stance is perfect just need to resize the holes so the component drop in.

We've also added width to the Ge stance so i stop breaking them... really love this layout... should have had it when i was building 25 klones a week.....

Agreed....

I've at least took the time to build it on a card table.

For the laugh....:
