For Sale Budgie's Preamp PCB 2014

Things you have for sale.
Hello,
I created the board using special software based on the published schematics and PCB photos!
Shannon Park (diytube.com) Unfortunately, his website and forum have been taken offline,
but I saved everything I need (e.g., firmware for the Arduino Nano).
I used the top side of the original board as a template, and that was relatively easy.
The back side was more difficult, as there isn't a decent photo of it.
And the back side also serves as the ground plane,
so you have to look at the schematic again for each component!
To protect the tubes and fingers, these things are available at aliexpress:hot:

Our DIY section also brings a great project from Shannon Parks, with its Arduino-based real tube preamp.
This is a simple 12B4 linestage controlled by a Arduino Nano board and the tube power supply is probably
the simplest in our magazine’s history: it uses a 24V, 1A desktop supply.


I'm only selling the boards. If you're interested, please PM me.
