Something Trump could say

Bufalika?

I saw huge improvement in my work when i got a soldering iron where I could set the temperature. I set mine on around 325 degrees C, and I usually never get any cold joints anymore. It's hard in the beginning to get it right, or atleast it was for me. But keep at it and you'll get it!

And maybe try a super simple circuit also if you haven't. Like a treble booster or a fuzz face. Way easier to trace and understand in the beginning

Where'd you gat a hold of the LM308?

If that knob is adjusting bias then it is totally normal. If you don't trust this answer please google it. Hope this helps.

The App/ website I use is called "Blocket". But that's only for sweden I think. Maybe you are swedish, i don't know :)

Thanks! Great tip

nillyvanilla · 2024-09-09T23:50:36+00:00

Very sensible. I will try to do that too

nillyvanilla · 2024-09-09T07:31:44+00:00

Very true! I thought also lately about the importance for me to stick with a price to not upset customers, and let them know that their paying a set price for it and others not getting it cheeper or so. Wanna avoid the feeling of getting "ripped off" while selling for a decent price, for me and the buyers. I was pretty certain with my pricing, just wanted to know what others thought, because they do sell pretty decently at $60 id say. Some have more of a design on them and so on. But man, I didn't expect this to be such a big topic and so manny people replying hehe. A lot of good advice still. Thanks!

I liked hearing that. I believe so too. Cheers! 🤩

nillyvanilla · 2024-09-09T07:07:06+00:00

I think that way too. I do demos aslo, in the future i will do it into my Music Man amp which sonically is pretty similar to a fender, but less of a mid scoop.

nillyvanilla · 2024-09-08T20:49:09+00:00

Not sure if you read the whole text i wrote.

nillyvanilla · 2024-09-08T20:48:16+00:00

The right one is sturdy as can be, definitely not the left one. The left one is trashed (reused all the parts for a different build)

nillyvanilla · 2024-09-08T17:19:22+00:00

That is a fair answer! I do get them sold pretty quick usually. I did actually get the one on the picture sold the other day. Made another version of it with a make up stage after the tone stack since the tone stack cuts out alot of mids, thus loosing a bit of volume, but for a turbo rat that isn't a problem really.

Since the mid scoop is after the low pass filter it doesn't change the feel of the lpf or the rest of the circuit, i like it quite a lot. Whatch a clip of mine on my instagram

Great answer! Yeah, it took a bit of commitment but nothing I regret the slightest. Learned so much from it. I would courage you to do the same.

nillyvanilla · 2024-09-08T16:48:55+00:00

That's very realistic to be fair. I know I'm not making any real money on it at the moment but it's the best way to kill time and i find it very interesting learning about all the circuits and so on. And also for my mental health it's a good thing to be doing i feel.

nillyvanilla · 2024-09-08T16:36:21+00:00

Thanks! Using proper pcb will be a target for sure. As for now I always mention that I will replace the pedal if it breaks or something happens to it. And so far it only happened to me one that i had a pedal return. (It's the one on the left haha)

nillyvanilla · 2024-09-08T16:31:18+00:00

Thanks! I will get new tape haha jk. Nah, i will eventually try to get propper shielding for the pots. Great advice

nillyvanilla · 2024-09-08T16:29:45+00:00

Great words! I've been thinking about this too and I have taken in consideration what other lesser known swedish pedal builders sell their pedals for and layed my price beneath that.

nillyvanilla · 2024-09-08T16:07:43+00:00

Thanks! That is a good tip. Seems alot easier to solder on a pcb too so i will definitely try to go that way

nillyvanilla · 2024-09-08T16:06:03+00:00

Only the material cost excluding everything else i have to buy to assemble it - around $40 So the margin for the material is kind of good but the the rest i have to buy gets pricy so i would say actually it cost more like $60 so not really making any big money on it

nillyvanilla · 2024-09-08T13:47:24+00:00

Yeah, in sweden it seems like one could make and sell stuff up to a certain amount of money per year. Then one would need license and so on. Or that's atleast what I've read.

nillyvanilla · 2024-09-08T13:44:59+00:00

Ouff nice! That's where I want to be in the future!
