1st summer project....

[Rouse]

I have several projects lined up, I doubt all of them are getting finished. I've got this, and the building of a treble booster, an amp, and an attenuator.. This is the 1st and easiest one on my list so here we go. I have this old Italian Vox Crybaby that needs fixing. It needs a new pot, some wires replaced, a new switch, and maybe a new jack. Here's a picture. If someone could point me towards a good schematic or parts list that would be great. I looked but there's not much on it. All I could find is the insides of a working one, but that not enough. I still need pot values, exactly which type of wire it uses, etc. Any advice on anything else that looks like it needs fixing would be appreciated. By the way, the first one is mine.

awesome project, i'm jealous.
i'd check out http://buildyourownclone.com/wah.html
it's not exactly the same, but they try very hard to replicate the exact tone by using the same components.
if some reason your board is fried, you can order theirs and drop it in.

You could just measure the pot to find it's value. Go from one side to the other to get the overall value, then go from the center to one side with the shaft turned midway, and see what that value is. If it's not roughly half the total, it's a log (audio) taper pot. Other than that, it appears to be a two watt unit wtih a 1/4" shaft.

Wire's wire. What's in there looks like about 22ga-24ga stranded machine tool or appliance wire. Nothing special. It's all low-voltage, so nearly anything will work fine.

Its 100k, just didn't look hard enough
