Cool Beans. Just curious, but any idea how many other pedals are in front of mine?

Are you safely back across the pond yet? Cheers to you and have a Happy New Year!

Are you trying to clone me, vile heathen?

Take an EHX LPB-1.

Use an 2n5088, and 820K/100K for the base bias resistors, 10K on the collector and 390 ohm on the emitter.
100nF film input cap
47nF film output cap
100K audio pot on output.

Grounded input TB wiring scheme. Have fun!
You sir are a scholar, a gentleman, and a saint.

You are a beast, Mike. You must sweat solder in order turn out the circuit boards that fast.

miguel- would the following be theoretically possible(?):

rehousing my OCD alongside a saltbooster circuit, making it a double switcher? i'd like a booster, but i'm thinking of ways to save on board space and power supplies.

Yep, that shit is totally possible. Could even add an order toggle so you have Gain/Volume Boost possibilities...

Mike,

How much do you charge for your version of the OCD pedal? Which version of the OCD does it most resemble (1, 2, 3, or 4)? How does it compare to the Saltbreaker? I might be interested down the road.

Thanks. I am excited about my Saltbreaker/Saltbooster pedal and the Fuzzface I ordered. It will round out my Xmas along with my Bugera V5 and my Voodoo Labs Pedal Power 2.
