    Save my dumb guitar headstock?

    Hey all, I found trashed First Act guitar and thought it would be fun to make it into something cool. Here's the current headstock: ...which I think is the ugliest thing ever. I've been playing with recutting it, and my favorite design is this: Question: Would this just rip itself apart...

    Everything You Wanted to Know About JFETs (but Were Afraid to Ask)

    See, what I come to expect from Chuck when I see a title like "Everything You Wanted to Know About JFETs (but Were Afraid to Ask)" is Chuck to write a very clear and concise explainer written in simple language that my limited intelligence can parse. Not a link to a BOOK fergodssake! What do...

    Overloading IC op-amps for distortion

    If you took a Quad-channel op amp IC (like the TLO74) and ran channel one into channel two, channel two into channel three and channel three into channel 4, would you have the world's simplest 4-stage distortion, or would you just have a dead IC?

    Electro-Harmonix Talking Pedal (or any formant wah)

    Electro-Harmonix Talking Pedal (or any formant wah)

    I could only find a partial circuit on DIYstompboxes: ..but there's a few other projects that seem similar: Anderton's AntiWah It's a bummer that all the circuits I find only use two filters. From what I've read, you get a better vocal sound with three filters. I've been trying to find a...

    transformers?

    more than meets th.... sorry... Also sorry for yet another one of my endless questions. I've been working through @Chuck D. Bones's posts, trying to learn the ropes. I think I'm finally making some headway with distortion circuits and EQ circuits. Lately I moved on to wah circuits, which I...

    Using fake germaniums?

    Before I knew better, I bought a bunch of ✌️"AC128"✌️'s on eBay. I didn't even know what "measuring" meant 😒 but they sounded like shit, mostly just thin and harsh. So they ✌️"work"✌️, but I probably wouldn't build a fuzzface out of them. I mostly just have an obsession with making weird...
