Yorkshire Cascadia, Yorkshire Pasty, Tom's Mini-multi

[juansolo]

We've actually made 4 pedals, but one is a present so no pics of that one until after xmas

We have here a Yorkshire Cascadia, Jason's (Jubal) awesome distortion. This time squeezed into a 1590BB. Next the Yorkshire Pasty, we looked and we actually made the PCB for this 10 months ago... It's taken a while to stick this in a box for some reason. It's kinda an Colorsound Overdriver/Powerboost with a Cornish-ish buffer on the front so it plays nice with other things. I'd totally forgotten how good this sounds!

Last but not least is Tom's mini-multi. Tighter than expected, it's got an Enchanter (Timmy-ish) and a Guvnor clone (Fuzzdog PCB).

The Cascadia is particularly handsome. The graphic looks like it could have come off a vote of small-batch whiskey.

really great as usual. the washers on teh cascadia footswitch caught my eye, wierdly. Different type of footswitches?

[juansolo]

Nuts are from some Ampeg switches that we had to bin when we replaced them. Just happened to fit perfectly on the usual Alpha stomp.

great builds. I have the pasty half populated from last years boty. time to finish that up!

[juansolo]

No idea why it took us so long to put it in a box. But after 10 months sat on the shelf and trying it now, I was genuinely surprised how good it sounds.

Everything is awesome as usual! One question--what do you like for transistors in the CSOD circuit? I've had one populated for quite a while now, so I figure why not prolong it a bit longer to ask someone who's actually built a few of these.

[juansolo]

We built it so long ago I can't remember. I'll PM Cleggy (pedal is over at his) and find out. Looks to be a pair of BC109 and something else...


EDIT: "Theres a pair of bc109Cs followed by a 2n5088 in Q4, dont know why, but it has had a BC109C before as the spare pad has solder in it. We've always used 3 BC109Cs on a straight CSOD"

[Bret608]

Thanks! I will give those a try. May try bc549c for comparison's sake while I'm at it.

Love the look of that Cascadia. Jason's artwork really does have that craft microbrew feel to it!

[jubal81]

Interestingly enough, I was looking at el-component the other day and saw that the BC549C is supposed to be the low-noise version of the BC109C.

[Bret608]

I believe you are correct! Haberdasher mentioned that to me a while back as well. At any rate, that's why I'm thinking of giving them a try in the CSOD circuit.
