Hi frankie pajamas
Welcome to the forum from Australia.
Laurie's "Storm Chased Mod" is very Cool.  
If you are just looking to try different diodes,
fro a soft clip.
you could use a pair of back to back Germanium diodes, or
a set of silicon 1N400x any 1N4002 - !N4004 - 1N4007 diodes will work.
Like the Red LED's they will sounder louder when clipping.
Or you could use 3 diodes (2) in one leg and (1) in the other
fro some asymetrical clipping.
You can also try out some 1N914 also known as 1N4142 small siganl diodes.
If you fit some/all thees variations onto a small switch, you will be able to try out the various options.
Lauries "Storm Chase Mod" uses MOSFETS, wired as soft clippers, but Laurie,
has also done a number of tone improvenemt mods.
Good luck - and please keep us informed of your progress.
Regards Dr. Bob  |
