I received a guitar pedal in poor condition and looking to repair. Checking through the schematic, it appeared the electrolytic caps were installed backwards. All other picture I could find online had the caps orientation opposite what was in this pedal (as per schematic). Looking at the schematic, I'm pretty sure the ones in this pedal were installed backwards. I did not attempt to power on the pedal due to the received condition and was just checking through to make sure things were ok. The light bulb is a 387 bulb as stated in one of the answers (28v 40ma). So I think there is an error on this schematic and for now let's assume there is a proper ground in the power loop.
Is the resistance value for the 387 bulb correct? I've seen values ranging from 150, 200, or 220 ohms for this resistor.
Second question is will this still work correctly if all of the capacitors were reversed polarity? In other words if the + in the schematic was oriented to the bottom vice top would this cause any issues? I assume this would mess with all the output voltages?
Trying to learn something here.!
