Big Muff Deluxe Repair.

Post by smile_man »

Does anyone have a photo of the board for an EHX Big Muff Pi Deluxe? Mine is fucked, I think I pulled a wire out and I want to compare.

If you can put a photo of yours up I can have a look but I don't have a photo of it myself (it's a friends unit but I can either check from the schematic or borrow it from him)

Cheers,
Scruffie.

Wheres the wire you think you pulled out ( I assume it's loose if you think this)
Bottom left, looks kinda burnt, whats the component on the other side? Does it look okay? Plus is that blob of solder on the purple wire bridging 2 tracks if it's been re soldered? Looks like it might be...
What happened before it broke? Why did it suddenly die or did you buy it dead?
I assume it's meant to be soldered there but bottom right of the photo, blue and orange wire... that solder might be a cold joint (looks murky or dull, cant tell from the photo) which would mean a bad connection there.

I'm away for the weekend after the next few hours so will get back to you after if you don't reply (unless you sort it or someone else chips in)
