I asked for this before but forgot to save the file, but can someone please post the wiring diagram for a PNP positive ground fuzz? The last time I asked somebody posted the diagram from GGG and I went back to look for it there and couldnt find it. So if you would be so kind...
I promise to save it on my computer this time!
Also Im building the Tonepad MKII Fuzz so maybe someone has a wiring diagram for that too.
THANKS

I'll just draw up a diagram for you and post it here.... :)


I'm assuming that you mean the Tonebender Professional Mk II

Here you go,hope this helps,let me know if you have any trouble with your build.... :)



Note that the red wire from the battery clip is the positive lead,and is soldered to the ring connection on the input socket,the tip connection is connected to the footswitch.... :)

The black wire from the battery clip is the negative lead.... :)

Hey do you guys know how to add a voltage sag to a positive ground pedal? I can do it negative ground no problem (the beavis wiring) but Im wondering if I should put the same wires in the pot or if its just depends on the purpose of the wire. Thanks

Same exact way you would do it on a neg gr pedal.
