Pedal Parts / DIY

Linear taper, vertical mount, Song Huei pots with a 6mm shaft and a notched center position sometimes called a center detent. 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 standard linear taper versions, see R-VSHL-BX.

Small black plastic chicken head knob with an off-white indicator line for a vintage look. Fits 6.35mm (1/4") potentiometer shafts.

Heavy duty 4PST latching switch made in Italy by ST Professional. The body is made of PBT that is riveted to the bushing plate for a sturdy construction. The actuation force is lighter than similar Carling switches and provides tactile and audible feedback so the switching action is apparent to the user. This version features standard solder lugs. This style of footswitch is similar to the vintage footswitches found in the Schaller Fuzz, some Tonebender models, and others.

Threaded through wide dress nuts for use with mini toggle switches. This wide based nut is not capped allowing the nut to thread past the top of the switch’s bushing. The uncapped top can be useful where internal depth is an issue such as parallel PCB mounting. These plated dress nuts feature a wide chamfered edge for a professional and unique look. These work on any 1/4-40 UNS threaded bushing. Two sides are flatted for use with a tool when fastening.

Six conductor Flexstrip ribbons cables. These ribbons feature a nomex insulator so there are no melting issues when soldering. Unlike typical ribbon cables, the wires are designed to distribute the stress of the bend and vibrations throughout the entire cable rather than directly on the solder joints. These cables are a great choice for PCB to PCB connections in pedals, synths, and other electronics.

LM358 dual op amp in an 8-pin DIP package. These devices consist of two independent, high-gain, frequency-compensated operational amplifiers designed to operate from a single supply over a wide range of voltages. Operation from split supplies also is possible if the difference between the two supplies is 3 V to 32 V (3 V to 26 V for the LM2904), and VCC is at least 1.5 V more positive than the input common-mode voltage. The low supply-current drain is independent of the magnitude of the supply voltage. Applications include transducer amplifiers, dc amplification blocks, and all the conventional operational amplifier circuits that now can be implemented more easily in single-supply-voltage systems.

High quality, radial leaded, aluminum electrolytic capacitors rated at 50VDC.

A semiconductor device which passes current in the forward direction (from anode to cathode), and blocks current in the opposite direction.

CD4007UB types are comprised of three n-channel and three p-channel enhancement-type MOS transistors.

• Medium Speed Operation — tPHL, tPLH = 30 ns (typ.) at 10 V
• 100% tested for quiescent current at 20 V
• Meets all requirements of JEDEC Tentative Standard No.
