Danelectro Daddy-O Schematic
Hi All,  
 
Does anyone have a schematic for the Danelectro Daddy-O distortion pedal?  
 
Mine is a bit "hissy" and want to tackle the noise.  
 
Thanks,

put a 10K resistor in series with the clipping diodes. I replaced mine with 1n4148's. My daddy o uses a tl072 and is not noise the hiss IMHO is from the led clippers.

Thanks Gus,  
 
I take it, then, that the noise level (hiss) was reduced when you inserted the 10k and/or replaced the LEDs with 1N4148s?

It was not the "noise" but the LED buzz that I don't like sound like hiss to me. However LEDs are bad in the feedback loop type dist.
