Nothing terribly exotic, it's just a mute pedal with a tuner output. The tuner O/P is switchable between always-on and mute only. The LEDs are green for normal and flashing red for mute.

OK, several changes since the last pic... Cosmetically, I've painted the board black overall, but with that chequered top... looks great, well worth all the masking tape and scalpel blades, but there was a lot of swearing in my garage that day I can tell you :LOL: Secondly, I've done the Mid...

A whole bunch of changes since the last pic on 11th October. A couple of additions: firstly, the Zoom MS60B now sits in a bypass loop, making it easier to drop in and out of patches; and secondly, there's the Behringer BDI, which allows me to add a bit of crunch if I want but also sits there as...

Not an order snafu, but back when I was in secondary school (UK equivalent of high school) my physics teacher helped me build my first amp... we were planning the power supply and he said "I've got some superb capacitors, they'll be just the job". Imagine my surprise when yes, they really were...

This perfect, perfect song. Opening track from British session legend and nicest guy in the world Mo Foster's solo album Bel Assis, with the incomparable and much missed Gary Moore on guitar and the godlike Simon Phillips on drums. So beautiful it puts a lump in my throat.

Ooh that's lovely... impeccably neat as all your other projects are. Do you have a schematic of the circuit? (PS I'm Rich from Basschat, hi! Just joined, don't know why it took me so long to find this place :LOL:)

I aspire to drill press ownership. Many years ago I was a member of a model railway club and we had a variety of great tools including a lovely floor-standing drill press. I used to save all my home drilling jobs up and take them in on club nights to do them there! :LOL:

I recently bought my first step bit and it's a revelation. I wish I'd done it years ago. Up until now I've been using ordinary HSS bits and hole punches.

Here on the eastern side of The Pond, we call these metal shavings 'swarf'. Is this a peculiarly British name for them?

Hey folks, this is my current bass beastie... Genz-Benz Shuttle 9.2 delivering its full 1.2 horsepower into a Barefaced Super Twelve T cab (the Behringer compressor has gone since this pic was taken). This for me is the perfect rig... lightweight, reasonably compact, and monstrously loud when...

Hey all, here's my current tiny bass board. The 'Heffalump' is a tweaked Woolly Mammoth clone built around a Fuzzdog PCB, and the white box is a homebrewed buffered mute switch with tuner output. The blue 'Mute' LED flashes, so there's no chance of missing it! The graphic EQ serves as a low pass...
