This is a library of perfboard and single-sided PCB effect layouts for guitar and bass. I'm not an electrical engineer by any stretch of the imagination, just a DIY'er who likes drawing layouts. It is meant for the hobbyist (so commercial use of any of these layout is not allowed without permission) and as a way to give back to the online DIY community.

MI Audio Tube Zone

Here's the Tube Zone distortion from MI Audio. Original has 6 knobs with the Presence pot internally as a trimmer, but I know how you guys like to fiddle with knobs, and the layout was turning into a 1590BB size anyway, so I made it external. Schematic available on FSB.

  1. Great! Thank you! If caps are rated high enough, can it be powered by 18v?

  2. I think you could best change out the B20k presence for a B25k since there are no (cheap) B20k external pots.

  4. Precense also reversed and the 220n/100k should not go to the emitter but the collector of Q2. I would suggest using a B25k as Presence as stated before and if you want to be very puristic put a 100k between legs 1 and 3 to get B20k.
