Yes I think there's a lot of wisdom in those comments above and it shows that we all get there at some point more or less, real experience. I had and have that at times too and as Gordo said it comes in waves. Taking a break and allow other passions until those are in for a break. Discovering a...

Awesome, this is gonna be goooood! I'm itching for another guitar build myself, so this rubs it in... Nice! And of course Tele FTW!

That looks like the NZ postie....! They must have finally arrived in my country!

Awesome and I think leaving the boost off in the Black 65 is a good idea from my point as well. Maybe do the emitter bypass cap on a DPDT on/off/on for three different positions switching two jfets?

Very cool stuff indeed. I have been pondering building another Black 65 since the one I made on an etched MBP layout went astray staying on a friends board. Would be cool to get an updated version of this and very neat to dive deeper in these ideas. Cheers!

Excellent genrous good fun, congrats to all winners and thanks again to Mr. generous Fig!

That is amazeballs love your avatar on there! I shall build it with pride and gratitude! Swirls ahoy!

Looking forward to your observations, and where did you get the 2SK193 from? I saw some on evilbay but I don't quite trust 'em...

Excellent....! Very curious about this me thinks!

Awesome, thanks, looks I didn't feed the search box the right term there first time. Cheers!

Sos eeing the Creamety compressor out where would I be able to find a THAT2159 chip? I checked Mouser and Smallbear so far with no cigar.

Thanks for your wisdom there again, much appreciated. I shall keep my CCTT handy when considerimg which LEDs to chuck in.

Hfe 58 leakage 0.67uA (micro) Too generous, too much fun, thanks kind Sir. Now, to get whacky, which device or method did you use to test? What is the room temperature when measured and did you touch them with your bare hands before measuring or did you use temperature controlled gloves? Are...

There is some volume drop but not too much, similar to other circuits that use this principal. I tried three LEDs as an option, but that was not much difference to middle/no diodes, might experiment a bit more.

I tried it on the very board, works great. Experiment with alternative diodes, maybe use 4148s there.
