Build Notes

Where capacitor type isn't specified, you can use monolithic ceramic or film type capacitors.

There is space on the PCB for different diode clipping options, where it states jumper wire you should solder a piece of wire between the pads, or you can put another 1N4148 in D2 to get asymmetrical clipping like an Ibanez SD-1.

Board Connections

The PCB connections are labelled as the following: I - Input, O - Output, V - 9V DC in, G - Ground Potentiometers are connected from pin 1 to the square pad on the PCB.

This board was designed so you can use right-angle board mount potentiometers on it if desired, otherwise you will need to solder wired from the pads to the correct pin/lug.

Jack sleeves and DC centre pin should be connected to ground. V, LED + with a 2K2 resistor in series should be connected to the positive pin of the DC connector.
