    Can you help me fix my amp?

    nope. there are no dangerous voltages inside this amp (it's all ICs, no tubes) (except for at the power switch & power transformer, but they won't be a risk while the amp is not plugged in) just a good ol +15V/-15V supply...

    DEMO AionFX Empyrean Dual Distortion (Darkglass Alpha Omicron)

    the short story behind why this pedal was built involves the bass player of my band finally letting go of his helix stomp and agreeing to try/use another analog bass driver/distortion. he’s already got a sansamp bass driver, but apparently that’s not quite doing it for him, so i suggested this...

    Building for a pedal for tour

    i've never understood why anyone would ever want use ribbon cables in a pedal build. (except mass production to save time/money) weak, flimsy, brittle pieces of shit. they're fugly as hell. and then if you lose continuity in a single conductor, you'd have to replace the whole thing. instead of...
