Lovepedal Champ

Been a while since I've laid out an Electra and I came across the Champ schematic on FSB, so here you go. Should fit with a board mounted pot in a 1590A.

    1. You can try out whatever you have on hand. Just about anything will work–1N34A, 1N4148, 1N4001, LEDs, BAT41, etc. But it won't sound quite the same as the original. The 1N34A would probably get you pretty close though.

  5. Hi I'm new here is very good blog, I have a doubt that another type of diode could use as a replacement for the 1N60P would be of great help, because I can not find that type of diode around here.

    1. See my comment above. Pretty much any diodes will work, but will change the sound.

    2. Hi, I am trying to build the pedal but it only makes noise and I do not have to do it. I do not know if you could help me. I really like the effects and I need your help to correct something that is wrong. I do not know if it's the potentiometer. A B100k.

  7. Hey there!
    You have 3k3 res. Perhaps my old eyes didn't catch that, but I could have sworn that the schem reflects a 33k res. Can you verify please?

    1. Ahh - never mind. I totally missed the hand-drawn schem in the thread. It indeed shows a 3k3.

      Great job man, please - keep up the fantastic work :)
