The one that always leaves me scratching my head is this one MKIII with all the extra caps and two diodes...? I thought it was one I had, but it is another with a copper q3 and two NKT223 type.

Re: Rotosound Mark III
Thanks EW!! I knew you'd be able to straighten that out. I know I have seen reverse boards with late '70 and '71 Erie codes. I guess '70-'71 was the switchover to the "Non reversed" board. Maybe they were making both as they were using up the last Erie pots in '70-'71?

I wonder what all those extra caps do?

Re: Rotosound Mark III
Doesn't sound right to my ears right now. Plus,it sounds gated right now... This pedal has no balls (for now) 
I'll have to check if capacitors are ok. Pots are clean.

Re: Rotosound Mark III
By the way, I discovered that my Sola MKIII (ex Innerflight's) has a link between two of the fuzz pot pins
Damn, three MKIII, none are acting and looking the same... welcome to 40+ year old pedals world

Some of them have a reverse fuzz control, some a regular one. Do they behave differently?rafmax wrote:By the way, I discovered that my Sola MKIII (ex Innerflight's) has a link between two of the fuzz pot pins

Everything is transitional.
