    Incredible, I’m very grateful, thanks. I don’t suppose, when you’ve got another 5mins, whether you might be able to adapt it with the NPN + Inverter layout? That tag board is on the same page as you no doubt found ver. 1. So many big thanks! Si 🫡

    Might anyone happen to have a schematic for the Tonefactor Cream Pie Deluxe? Can’t find anything online other than a vero layout, but I don’t have the know how to create a schem from such a layout. Anyone stashing one? Lol Si

    HX stomp cab-sims

    If you’re going into the DI from the output of an HX Stomp, then a Passive DI would be best. I currently have the Stagebug SB2 directly after my Stomp. Si
  5. Not much to say, a two switch extension for the HX Stomp, this one comes with the appropriate EBS flat patch cable. Please add £2 for UK postage. Si
  6. 3x Horizon Standard 9-47 - £15 Add £2 for postage Cheers Si
  7. Bought new for the princely sum of £166, I bought this to experiment with recording sone heavy music this year. It’s a 30” Baritone and came strung and setup in B standard (BEADF#B), but I’ve currently got it in drop A, so just dropping that low string a tone. The whole guitar is extremely impressive for the money, sure the fretboard isn’t rolled, and the tuners are a bit cheap, but as a basic instrument, not least a platform for upgrading if it does what I need, it’s quite brilliant. Worst case, I bail on the guitar thing and string it like a bass VI. Si

  8. It’s still with me, I haven’t been pushing it as I might get away with not selling it…..but if there was an offer, I’d consider it still. Si
  9. Just won a Shergold Telstar bass via an Instagram competition. Lovely! 🤩

      @Al KrowIt was the Guitar Nerds podcast competition. I’m not even sure why I entered it tbh, I think because the entry criteria was minimal, follow Shergold and drop a comment, easy. I don’t go for all this ’repost this and share that and tag a mate’. So yeah, low effort, high reward haha.

  10. Sire P7-5, done and done. https://www.thomann.co.uk/marcus_miller_p7_alder_5_awh_2nd_gen.htm?glp=1&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAADuDMCX_zSAZrfny3pSxbsVTTyYr2&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIydDKvNqLjAMVyodQBh13qhEUEAQYAyABEgIs4_D_BwE Si
  11. Another vote for EBS patch cables here. Si
  12. A ‘bag-o-pedals’? 😁 Yup, some solid choices there, love those MXR Blackout Envelope Filters! Si
  13. Hey all, This is the original prototype for the production Knightfall 66 pedal, which I ordered as a custom order prior to the design (mainly controls) being slightly tweaked, and put into production. Drop me a PM and I can show you more info about how it was born. So this is a two-channel Knightfall 66, with global controls for blend, bass (low) and High (treble), then per-channel controls for gain and volume. Left switch is for switching between channels, right switch is for on/bypass. The knobs have been changed by me shortly after I received the pedal so that each channel (blue/red) relates to the LED colour for the A/B foot switch. In addition (I don’t believe the production Knightfall 66’s had this), there are multiple diode options available per channel. The interior diode clipping switch (see image) is numbered 1-10, with the options as follows: 1: Ch2 - MOSFET 2: Ch2 - LED 3: Ch2 - Ge 4: Ch2 - 1N4001 5: Ch2 - Si 6: Ch1 - Si 7: Ch1 - 1N4001 8: Ch1 - Ge 9: Ch1 - LED 10: Ch1 - MOSFET There is also a trimmer inside the pedal, this controls the maximum clean volume when the pedal is engaged. The treble is rolled off the clean channel above around 3kHz to allow for better integration with the distortion, so you may feel you want to bump the clean volume up if there's a perceived volume drop. With regards the external control, the Low (Bass) knob adjusts the corner frequency of the first opamp stage, and as a result adjusts how much low-end will be clipped. To the left is tight and thin, and as you roll it round to the right you will loosen things up and saturate more bass. All the way to the right and you're in fuzz territory. I have found between 10 o'clock and 2 o'clock yields the most usable results, though this varies with taste and the position of the blend knob. All the other controls are as per the standard Knightfall (v1): High (Treble) is a passive adjustable LPF, with "blanket over your cab" setting at the left, all the way round to "ice pick in my ear" on the right. Gain and Volume are obviously self-explanatory. You'll get different levels with the different diodes (Ge and LED being the opposite ends of the spectrum in this regard) Cash is king for this rarity, however would consider a Sire P5-5 in part exchange pending the colour, white being the preference. Cheers Si Cheers Si
