    Kliche - diode removal?

    Klon with no diodes does sound pretty good, IMO. But, once you starting cranking the gain and treble controls you may encounter some oscillation or motorboating. As long as you stay below that threshold no problem.

    New shop space - a WIP

    Wood shop in the garage is next after this. I've got most of tools already except a thickness planer. Next year I will be building a couple of Teles and maybe a couple cabs and amps.

    New shop space - a WIP

    Almost everything has been moved into the space. Next up is to figure out where everything is going to go. After that, I will be using those amazing Lowe's gift cards to start scratch building the work benches and new computer desk and also painting all the walls. I figure by the end of the year...

    New shop space - a WIP

    New flooring is in. This took me a few days due to back pain problems, but I got it done. Far from perfect but serviceable. Once I put in base board and paint it will look good. New metal storage cabinet (putting the doors on tomorrow). Total PITA to assemble. I swear, any time I have to put...

    I'll take out all the ICs, if needed.

    Pedal storage

    I'm actually buying this in a few days. I wanted to build something with doors and LED lights but that will have to wait for another time. Shoe Rack

    Trouble Wrapping my head around 3P4T wiring

    Without the base and emitter attached no current conducts through the transistors not in use.

    New shop space - a WIP

    We did finally set a budget of $1k. So, half of it gets me in the space and later on this year we're going to paint and I will be building some worktables that fit around the bulkheads on the floor. I just wish we had done this 5 years ago like I planned.

    New shop space - a WIP

    No pics today, but we made progress. We're going to install some stick on vinyl flooring over the exposed concrete which is going to be my pedal building area (can't have little bits of wire sticking in carpet and poking my feets). New vent covers for the registers, outlet covers and some surge...

    Trouble Wrapping my head around 3P4T wiring

    You only need to switch out the base and emitter in this case, so yeah a 2p4t will work fine here. That's a neat breakout board.

    New shop space - a WIP

    Some progress today. One half of the room got cleaned and drums are finally set up for the first time in a few years. Also, the blinds from the window fell off and there's a bit of a problem with the register cover. I think I will spend the dollars for new blinds and covers for the room so it...

    It's literally the worst part of the house, which is why my wife is letting me have it :)

    New shop space - a WIP

    This is the original garage in my place that was refinished way before we bought the house. It was daughter's playroom for a long time, then storage. My initial plan was to rip out all the bulkhead on the floor (that has the air ducts) then rip out all the carpet and put in vinyl plank...

    How do you typically Clean flux from PCB

    I only sometimes clean the bottom of boards but here's what I do: 99% ISO with a toothbrush. After drying, scrub with warm water with a drop of dish soap, again with a tooth brush. Pat dry or use a heat gun. Works perfectly.

    MBP FireAxe (Boss FA-1)

    Glad you like it! Also, top mounted jacks on a 1590B is even too crazy for me :) I've never even tried it. Oh wait, never mind. I just remembered I have. Never again!

    What strings do you guys use?

    I've never been cool enough to break a bass string in like 30 years. You must have been doing some Billy Sheehan riffs.

    What strings do you guys use?

    I put DR Black Beauties on my Jazz bass the last round and I really like them (on that bass).
