It's true that it is more commonly seen in a horizontal position though. In this case, it was just squeezed in that way due to lack of space.stuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02461220593169801487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2534195963488802319.post-55941136262550703672016-11-15T16:50:34.954-08:002016-11-15T16:50:34.954-08:00I know this is an old thread, but is the 3pdt swit...I know this is an old thread, but is the 3pdt switch supposed to be oriented with the lugs like that?

Just a quick question, I'm hoping to make one of these but I'm unsure exactly how to connect the jack sockets and LED up to the circuit and also to the 3PDT. I'm pretty much a beginner to all this so I'd appreciate any help.

I'd definitely be checking the wiring extremely carefully, as well as the switch. Also if it's in the enclosure, make sure nothing is shorting out. The passive pickups should be fine. I use passive pickups too.stuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02461220593169801487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2534195963488802319.post-22242824493095020372015-10-18T04:56:25.037-07:002015-10-18T04:56:25.037-07:00Hi,

I'm fairly certain that I've got the circuit right, however, it doesn't seem to affect the signal in any noticeable way. Could the fact that I'm using passive pick-ups have something to do with it? If so, what would I need to adapt in order to make it work?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2534195963488802319.post-28905606530286226452015-05-17T18:26:46.087-07:002015-05-17T18:26:46.087-07:00Hi Pierre,

You can then adjust the capacitors a bit if you're not happy with the tone, but otherwise they should be fine as they are now. Let me know how you get on.stuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02461220593169801487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2534195963488802319.post-812641721413992352015-05-07T07:58:09.709-07:002015-05-07T07:58:09.709-07:00Hi!
