I’ll check it out! Too bad there isn’t an audiobook version I could listen to.

Great idea although looking into it, doest seem there is an iPad version and Mrs G threatened to "punch me in the throat" if I brought a laptop because I would end up working at some point. Another great idea! Also, probably better than bringing a full breadboard on a 10 hour international...

Headed out on vacation in a couple of weeks and pulling together some reading material. I’ve already got the Wampler books, Guitar Electronics for Musicians, Electronic Projects for Musicians, Stompbox Cookbook and Small Signal Audio Design. Anything essential I’m missing? Prefer digital...

You don't do paint resistors? Amateur. Say I don't have any 4.7k I just grab my handy paint brush, slap on the right colors and BAM, that is what it will resist.

See when I started, I thought that was a bad thing melting the cap but apparently I was doing it right all along!

Sounds logical comparatively.

Did you turn the tv to Channel 3? Kidding - you are in good hands with swelchy!

I use velcro but the poster putty is clever, I like it!

Just wait until you accidently order a 470k Charlie Watts.... . THAT is embarrassing!

Spoke with my friend who is a NASA engineer. I’m not sure, I think he gave me better advice than shared here. “Don’t eff it up!” Glad he told me, there is an 87% chance I would have!

A good friend of mine is a nasa engineer….

That was mostly sarcasm. I believe he JUST got a guitar tech. Good way to initiate him with some hazing! Good idea, was hoping more of a one off gift but yeah, that is probably be a good idea. Transistors I have never done a socket unless I was testing things out. opamps, will have to give it...

Or do I just fill it with epoxy?

I just cross thread things so I don't have to use locktite!

Hi! I’m building a pedal for a friend who’s a bust touring musician as a gift. While he’s not abusive with his gear, he is an enthusiastic performer so I want to make sure this build is as bulletproof as possible. Up to now, I’ve only built pedals for myself and a couple of local friends...
