Pedal Parts / DIY

Linear taper, vertical mount, Song Huei pots with a 6mm shaft. These 9mm pots are popular in DIY guitar pedals, modular synthesizers, and other projects where space is limited. The knurled shaft features a painted indicator line so no knob is required. These tall versions have a 17mm shaft length and a total height of 25mm. For audio taper versions, see R-VSHL-AX. For center notched linear taper versions, see R-VSHL-BX-CN.

The TL072 is a high speed JFET input dual operational amplifier incorporating well matched, high voltage JFET and bipolar transistors in a monolithic integrated circuit. The device features high slew rates, low input bias and offset current, and low offset voltage temperature coefficient.

High-quality USA made knobs from Davies Molding. The skirted 1900 series knobs are made of solid phenolic and feature an indicator line on the skirt. These classic knobs have been used on a variety of equipment throughout the decades and are still popularly used on synthesizers today. The smaller 1910 knob was used on many early Serge paperface panels. Davies 1910 (Small)

• Minimum Shrink Temperature: 70°C
• Full Recovery Temperature: 100°C
• UL Approval
• RoHS Compliant

The 1N34A Germanium diode is an old standby in electronics. Widely used for detecting the rectifying efficiency or for switching on a radio, TV or stereo etc.

¾" dia. Knurled aluminum knob, 'positive grip', notched tip indicator, fits ¼" shaft. With set screw. Multiple color options available.

¼" female. Open circuit. Replacement for Fender®. Made in Taiwan.

Standard size terminal strips, 1/16" thick bakelite, tin plated steel solder lugs and brackets on 3/8" centers.

Great replacement for stomp-box effects requiring a latching DPDT (Double Pole, Double Throw) switch. AC125V/4A AC250V/2A.

Large black plastic control knob with set screw and brass insert. The two different options include one version with a black plastic top and another version with a radial-brushed metal cap with a chamfered edge, each sold separately. The grip has a smooth straight knurl and the skirt features an arrow indicator. Fits ¼” (6.35mm) pot shafts.

Carling mini-toggle switch, DPDT, ideal for phase switching, coil-tapping, series/parallel pickup switching in guitars.

2N5088 NPN Bipolar Junction Transistor in TO-92 package

Audio taper (log), vertical mount, Alpha pots with a 6.35mm shaft diameter. These 9mm pots are popular in DIY guitar pedals, synthesizers, and other projects. Mounting nut and washer included.

Spring steel tooth-lock washer. Uses internal teeth for locking and tension.

SPST(single pole,single throw) normally open, Off-(On) momentary foot switch. Solder lugs, soft switching. These high quality switches are great for upgrading the footswitch in relay based pedals as well as tap tempo applications. Depressing the switch shorts the lugs together and when the switch is released it returns to its non connected state with no click.

• SPST momentary switch
• Soft, silent switching with no click
• Normally open operation
• Solder lugs
• Nuts and washer included

Note: Off-(On) switches may sometimes be referred to as Off-None-(On).
