DIY pedal help

[sleepykitty]

i'm making the one above, currently wanna test it on the breadboard first.
but where do i connect the ground to? to the negative polarity of the battery?

Just connect all to a point and connect to the metal enclosure will do.

make R4 variable or just reduse for more gain and R3 make it variable for character dime !!

Even the 100K input can be increased for more gain .....tweak it bro :lol:

Just connect all the ground to a point.
When your jack is insert into the input jack it will automatically connect it to the (-) of the batt. see?

What I usually do is to connect all the grounds to one of the jack sleeve lugs (it's ground anyway). No need to connect to the enclosure..

 

[sleepykitty]

would get the enclosure and stomp switch frm mrmisse once this thing is up and running

Just link up all the ground together.

The input jack sleave and output jack sleave and the battery ground and the ground points in the circuits.
