Poor clueless guardian. :( Edit. had time to go through my Crybabys circuit and it’s really close to what I gathered from stinkfoot list on wah mods. Someone has even put a socket for midpoint shift cap! So maybe I’ll test it first before tweaking it further.

Scored these two for 60 coins. Wahs bypass mod needs some loving care with my Weller and switch height adjustment. Also considering depth pot for Neo Clone, is it worth doing? Any suggestions for wah C and R value changes to low tunings?

How it sounds with neck PU and from 12th fret upwards? Is the octave effect more apparent?

You’re joking there’s no strats there

Last friday found this on my bench. Changing new tires revealed old ones had some life inside. Need to adjust my sealant formula considering propylene glycol is that prone for microbial growth.

I honestly don’t know what I did finally caused 50/100hz hum disappear which I’ve been struggling when circuit was all stock with og pcb. But now I’m there where I want with hum free amp and acceptable hiss remaining. Was it PA grid leak resistor value reduce? Were silver micas causing it? Or...

Been working and fixing some mistakes in my ex-Simmswatts-now-superbass/model t. Doing some bass cutting as second time on rehearsals got me thinking there’s just too much bass and doing high gain with pedals leads bassy mush and preamp hits headroom limit. V1 shared cathode bypass reduced...

Handsew piece of leather or other thin sturdy material over broken end. Use multifilament fishing line as yarn. I’ve used line for fixing shoes.

Dude you went too far with all dem poles. Ease up and be happy like everyone else with 4 poles!!!

I could imagine these are from failing equipment, misusing tools or self taught amateurs (like us) doing stupid things. I’ve witnessed my grandpa duct taping broken insulation on cord as a permanent fix…

This thing runs on kilovolts, biases too hot into redplating and takes water in like champ while turning it to warm vapour. I haven’t died on throwing water into burning red resistors and you’re afraid of sockets in bathroom, camooon! Ps. I have wall AC sockets in 2 meters from the shower...

No suspension sag in action, but how’s getting enough bb drop and stack for reasonable handlebar height?

Yeah, I made the amp play pristine cleans now and unruly but articulate fuzz driven fire is gone. Harder to find fine point balance there between stability and abuse. Recent cathode bypass cap adjust and more PI headroom/balance/stability just tamed the beast too much Stuck with 2 preamp...

Conspiracy 2 commit child labour???

Been reading about preamp design and started thinking maybe I need some blocking distortion in preamp to get into that filthy pre amp drive zone with fuzz/dirt pedals. This is against usual guidelines and manuals about a tube circuit design so is there anything else to dive into I haven’t...

IS THERE A SCHEMATIC FOR THIS???? 🤡

No more cutoffs as I changed some values on V1-2&PI, but changing PI cathode resistors from 470r/10K to 1.2K/22K made a difference in low freq hum this amps been making. Now the amp has less gain and tone with fuzz was all right, but getting into really saturated chuggahs didn’t work so well...

Remember light bulb limiter on first startup to save new tubes

Planning in progress. Still needs some slotting, drilling and sanding. Yay or nay for PUs angled?
