Signal Path Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Hi, I'm looking for someone who can build me a Pete Cornish LD-1 buffer Many thanks, Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morgano Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Do you have a circuit schematic for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul_5 Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I could do you one on veroboard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chienmortbb Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 It is a Class A high impedance / low impedance buffer. Priced at just short of £200. The real question is why you would need one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoonBassAlpha Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Like a d.I. box then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chienmortbb Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 So what you are saying is that true bypass is not the holy grail many think it is? If so any simple buffer would do. At far less than£200. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I don't think it has a balanced output like a real di would have ? But if building it diy it could be incorporated without too much bother.

Passinwind Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Not sure if this is the model you're looking for: http://mklec.com/project-kits/guitar-effects-kits/fairy-dust-buffer-pcb-diy-kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chienmortbb Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 (edited) You beat me to it Charlie, stared writing this last night but fell asleep. There is a clone of the Cornish. Known as the Fairy Dust, there are Veroboard/stripboard layouts for this as well as a PCB kit (excluding enclosure) available from MKelec.com. Cost inc shopping would be about £15 from the USA.

Telebass Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Use a TU-2/TU-3 tuner. Good buffer in that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
