I am mad at danelectro!!!!
I used to really like their stuff
But not only that they pretty much doubled their prices for their instrument without making them better
But a few years ago, Stephen Ridinger, the boss of the Company that owns Danelectro donated at least 10K$ to a cause, aiming to ban gay marriage in California.
That made me sad since it made it hard for me to enjoy their stuff
since I still kinda like their stuff
Enough ranting
More PCB stuff
This PCB is kinda based on the Breakdown by said brand wich is again very much based on a old drive circuit (sorry I am to lazy to research the name of it right now)
The original has a 6 position rotary switch for the amount of breakup
That is very fun to do but kinda shit for DIY
I changed the switch to a potentiometer wich not only gives you finer control over the breakup, but also makes building the thing easier and cheaper
But you also have the option to build it with a (8 point!!!) rotary switch
I kinda fucked up so the positions are a bit weird but let`s ignore that....
Oh and the entire thing is something between boost and overdrive or whatever
Almost forgot that
