3PDT switch mounted charge pump PCB for positive ground effects. This small PCB simplifies the wiring of 3PDT foot switches in guitar pedals while also offering -9V when used with a standard +9V power supply. This is a great option for positive ground effects such as vintage fuzz pedals. The circuit of this PCB also features a protection diode and an LED indicator for when the effect is engaged.
This board is compatible with the MAX1044, TC1044S, TC7660S, and LT1054 charge pump ICs.

Heavy duty mil-spec barrel plug from Switchcraft. The S10 is a high current, non-sealed power jack with a similar design as the ¼” jacks from Switchcraft. The plug is rated for up to 11A of current.

General purpose low level, low noise amplifier. Silicon NPN transistor.

Carbon composition resistors are made by mixing carbon particles with a binder molded into a cylindrical shaped, and then baked. Resistance decreases as temperature increases. Resistance is more prone to drifting than with other types. Standard 'classic' resistor. Sold in multiples of 5. 10% tolerance.

The CD4052B analog multiplexers are digitally-controlled analog switches having low ON impedance and very low OFF leakage current.

The 2N4123 is a general purpose silicon NPN transistor in a TO-92 case. The 2N4123 is primarily intended for general purpose amplification. It is a popular choice for silicon fuzz pedals due to its low hFE specifications.

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

• 0.354" bushing length
• 2 Position On-On

• Double pole/Double throw (DPDT)

A great digital reverb sound that easily replaces a spring reverberation unit. Small package is half the size of the P-RBTDR-1H-X

YY enclosure finished in a hammered green powdercoat. The slanted YY enclosures are perfect for fuzz pedals and other vintage style effects. In addition to the classic slant, this enclosure features thick diecast walls and a recessed bottom cover. The four bottom plate cover screws are included. Features

• Vintage style slant
• Hammered green powdercoat
• Flat top-section for mounting controls
• Recessed lid
• Thick diecast construction

PCB for converting SMD SOIC-8 packages to through hole DIP-8 footprints. Solder the device to this PCB then attach pin headers (sold seperately) to connect to through hole footprints on PCBs, breadboards and IC sockets.

High quality chassis mount battery holder. This steel holder fits standard 9V batteries. The vertical mount and small footprint of the holder are great for narrow spaces and work well for any project. See S-H158 for horizontal-mount.

Genuine Dunlop replacement knob for Jimi Hendrix JH-F1 Fuzz Face. Knob is designed for use with solid/plastic 1/4” shafts and features set screw attachment. Two washers are included.

PCB and parts kit for the MKII fuzz pedal. This is based on the classic stripboard Tone Bender Professional. This stipboard fuzz circuit was also used in some versions of the Supa Fuzz as well as some other fuzz pedals. This kit includes all of the resistors, capacitors used on the included circuit board. The germanium PNP transistors are not included such that customers can select and test their own.

Reverse audio taper Alpha 16mm pots with a solid shaft and right angle PCB mount terminals. The smaller size is useful for builds with limited panel space such as guitar pedals, synthesizer modules, and adding modifications to equipment. Washer and nut included.
