    so, I have a vintage poly flange that i’ve had for several years.

    in the last few years, between moving and storage, the output jacks got ripped out of it. schematics for these things are damn near impossible to find.

    i was wondering if somebody could be so kind as to open theirs up, and take some pics of the board. just the side under the cover, no removal needed. i just need to know where the effect and direct outs go on the board. thanks!!!

    I don’t have one, but if you take a picture of the insides I might be able to tell you how to wire it up.

    Alright. here’s what i have… dates on the pots 05/80

    the input jack, and blend switch are correct. i’m missing both outputs and the on/off switch.
    there is a set of red/black wires (second pic)that should be one output that are still on the board. which output this is, and where the other on attaches the the board, is what i need to know.

    and also, if anyone knows, on the transformer, which wire is hot, and which is neutral?

    pics!

    As far as I know the Poly Flange is identical to the vintage Poly Chorus. I’d try and track down a schematic of that (not the reissue stereo poly chorus, which is different)

    Poly Flange/ Poly Chorus/ Echo Flanger

    Black Wire is Direct Out, Red is Effect Out.

    Regards Transformer, to the board, Green appears to be hot, brown neutral, to the socket? Can’t See from your pictures.

    I will post a pic of the insides of mine tomorrow or the day after for you to compare wiring.

    BTW: Do you know much one of these go for? I can’t seem to find any prices for these on the web… or find any for sale. Are they just too good to sell?

    thanks for the replies. some shots of the inside would be great.

    the last time i saw one of these on ebay was about 6 months ago and it sold for a little over $600. just depends on whether or not somebody wants to pay for it :-)

    Sure, I can get those pics to you soon.

    Also, I just noticed a difference in the soldering on my PC board just above where the tape is compared to the picture that you posted of your PC board. You might want to check that out.

    yea i noticed that too. i’ve seen a few shots of others, and from what i can tell they look like mine. i guess i’ll just have to go through and check everything once it’s all fixed up. What year is your btw?

    got the big muff pi working yesterday… hopefully have the poly flange going in the next day or so… :-)

    anybody know.. are the output jacks grounded to anything? i have the positive (tip) lines sorted out, but cant figure out if the output grounds are supposed to be wired up anywhere…

    the outputs are grounded to the input through the metal case
