Hey Chico, sounds like a cheezy plug for the site, but Robert has the cool solder sucker that works like a champ too. Not that I've ever, ahem, needed to unsolder parts or remove solder blobs or anything. Ahem.

I have a BLMS T-shirt that's just stupid good quality. Any of their jacks are as well.

Check all your part values. It could always be a transistor out of spec but SMDs I’ve found to be far more consistent than thru holes. Maybe a heat damaged trim pot? Last ditch after all the above would be to swap out the transistor itself.

I don’t want to reinvent the wheel as the original neck did me quite well. I just need direction to replace the old beast. But the prices seem to vary from $200 to $500.

Was quirky but I'm old but smart...

I like this as the programming was easy once I figured it out but have changed computers since then. I have no idea where I left off and would like to get back into this without reinventing...

I have a 71 strat that I've totally butchered over the years with synth jacks and 13 pin installations etc. I'm considering the body to be worthless in terms of a 71 and the neck has been refretted so many times it needs to be replaced. Anything out there that's outstanding? It's a big...

This one never sounded right to me, although I've never played the original. Looking forward to tearing into it.

Yeah, this was my question. Thinking you mean 9vAC? Regardless I suspect the diode jumped on the grenade before it got anything else.

Another superb build & report. I always look forward to rwl builds.

Stacked boards, it’s all good. She’ll fly Orville. Put me down for the prototype. I’m going to bed now. G’nite.

I love the Aions but suck at demos.

I was on the Tayda site a few days ago doing a general inventory restock. I bailed and hit up Stompboxparts. Is it me or does it seem like the Tayda site either has less to choose from or the interface is WAY less friendly to find stuff.

Are you freaking kidding me? That enclosure looks fantastic and a cheeky nod to the original purple and the fonts. You win the internet today. Fantastic.

Very nice. I'm really looking forward to getting mine together and have all the parts. Now I just need to find the time.
