I'm building a Rullywow Queen of Bone. This is my first pedal and I've been going slowly, taking my time.
I started to solder in the diodes today. I had no real issues with the 1N4148 diodes aside from the slipping while I was soldering them, so they're standing proud from the board on one side.
I also soldered in the 1S1588 diodes.
I was worried about the 1N4148 diodes that were standing proud, so I measured them with my multimeter and they seemed fine. While I had it out, I measured the 1S1588 diodes and I'll get a quick flash of a reading before it zeroes out.
So far I've only soldered in 2 of the 1S1588's out of 4. However, I only ordered 6 in total and they took 3 months to arrive in the mail from Oz. So, if there is a chance I did burn them out I'd like to avoid doing the same thing when I solder in the rest.
Any suggestions?
