I grow tired of pedal circuits with uncommon resistor values, requiring me to scrutinise schematics to see if a value substitution will be possible, and sometimes constructing new values from ugly series or parallel concoctions. In the past I have gone to Jaycar, but at $3 for 8 resistors plus the travel time to their store it's less than ideal.
Enter eBay and this monster pack that just arrived:
20 each of 156 different values, at less than 1 cent per resistor.
Won't get caught out now. Except for 10k. Every pedal seems to use more 10k than any other value, sometimes 7 or 8 times as many. So I bought a 100 pack of 10k.
Fortunately they are sorted. Never again will I buy one of those jumbo packs of tangled resistors!
