I haven't Floyd'd out in a while, but Meddle is still I think an absolute pinnacle of an album for me. The production, the compositions, the sounds, the mood, it's just 'heavy'. 'One of these days' is an amazing opener, but 'Echos' probably cemented my love for long format burns with deep...

Seconding to @wayni208, big ups to OP @steelplayer for posting the Affinity sale way back in 2020 which just so happened to be on sale again this month, as well as @dmnCrawler for the misc parts .svg! I was trying to learn Gimp and banging my head against the wall, I've never done anything like...

I have a CP5 with the louder than liftoff Pentode color in it and I like it a lot, it's very viby on ribbons and has plenty of gain on tap. I like the color format but I dont know if I want to continue investing in it. I finished the Hairball audio Lola pres and they are every bit as awesome as...

I feel that, I love smallbear and i have sympathy for the sourcing problem that we all find ourselves in, but they have less and less of the specialty stuff id like to order from them and have had to turn to other sources i dont like, even like... Amazon... blegh

Nuggets like this is why I keep coming back, what a great idea! Putting that in my back pocket, thanks.

Thanks for this note, im waiting on my brick to arrive but almost everything else is in the board, so ill just change r4 and skip the middle part!

Didnt know about this site, they have just the parts i was looking for for a few projects! Affordable too, thanks for the rec 👍

Just ordered his book on his website, thanks for the recommendations y'all. I've got a lot on my plate to clear up but this is a great project to have in the barrel, love that the book covers the winding machine construction. I may just have to order some '70s' lollars for my jbass in the mean...

Love em, especially was great as a beginner. Now I know how to wire it without, but still very much prefer using it. Love the DC and other breakout jacks too, dont have to use them often but really useful when I do. While I'm at it, I'm definitely going to get the testing board; somehow ive...

Hot damn, I might drive up from Texas just to stuff a car full of whatever fits, thats amazing! I think I see a short stack Leslie in picture 18, which would make sense considering the amount of hammonds in there, I see the power supplies. Keep an eye out for speaker cones, rack equipment and...

I got this Irwin Vice Grip stripper and im kinda over the moon with it. It works all the way down to 24 awg. Perfect for working with audio cabling, its pretty satisfying to use and honestly increased my efficiency by 33% when it comes to making cabling and switch hardware, i love it bunches.

I have one more Lola Preamp to build for my pair, and I really need to get this done so I can get on with the pedal PCBs i bought all the way back on black friday (!!!). Unfortunately, I seemed to have messed up making one of the Jensen OpAmps for the pre, because the appropriate resistors went...

Totally! The other day I was patting myself on the back for hearing a guitar tracked through a DIY ribbon mic through a Lola kit I built, run through a bunch of pedals I made. Time to start making the rest i guess, short of soldering a computer together (though I wonder... 😋)

I was just wondering about some of this, after seeing This here video which makes it look pretty straight forward as a concept. I got plenty of projects on my plate right now, but now im really curious about this process, looks like I got some reading to do! I'd love to wire up custom pickups...

It seems like UAD is really reaching for complete control of the high end digital market... anyone have any hands on use with their new DAW, Luna? I have an Apollo Twin Quad at the studio, and its main job is basically to process the UAD plugins, which does create a nice flow and balance of...

Definitely worth changing the stock bridge of a jazzmaster. When it comes to JM, there's such a cult over them that pushes the price up; my only real take away has been that, whatever you buy, you can put some Lollar JM pickups in there and you'll be happy as a clam. I really want to build/buy...

Just chiming in, I think Nostrodomus was the one to suggest (in a different but similar thread) using shielded cable for the in/out wires from switch to jack, and using the cold to ‘double down’ on the grounding connections, making the jacks grounded to the pcb, the enclosure, and the 3dpt...

Ok i get ya, its just doubling down on the jack grounding. Thats super useful to know, thanks!

Seconded on the cataclysm delay, i built one for me and a friend as well and it is absolutely killer. Mix and tone knobs make it particularly useful. Im not personally a fan of the modulated delays, but i really want to build some more delay and PT2399 circuits so who knows!

I noticed the dinky caps for the 47p, is a good rule of thumb to use MLCC in high gain situations? Or just whenever at all possible? Also i want to make sure about the shielded wire thing as i have a sabbath to complete: the hot goes from switch to jack as normal, while the cold goes from...
