Installed these HB sized P90s and I’m really happy they revealed to be surprisingly noise and hum free. Better than HBs I have! Another benefit is tamed microphonics.

First impression about these PUs from Aliexpress is QUALITY. :oops:

Damn thou my problem child Simms-Watts! Went through almost 4 months problem free, but last sunday tube cutoff came in when chugging power chords, but there wasn’t problems on long sustaining notes. A dying preamp tube? Bias drifted too high on big bottles? Faulty supply cap somewhere? Just...

Did you ALSO use real berries for stain? I used blueberries and it was easy to just crush and swipe mushy berryjuice over plain wood on the body. Nice colour!

I see power resistors!

Edit. Pictures step is filling/saturating pores/grains with hempseed oil. Left it there soaking overnite and if it’s still wet to touch afternoon, gonna give it a light sand with oil and wipe excess off. After it’s dry I’ll do high grit dry sanding. If satisfied on colour and 3D-effect process...

Still drying to be sanded before pore filling with oil sanding, but more colours! Bare sides went through turmeric treatment and also added it on top and back. Also more blueberry juice went in. Maybe sides will get some black? Gonna do pore filling with hempseed oil to get slight green tint...

Staining on the bench. It’s black dye on pores and blueberryjuice with isopropyl for purple. Thinking about adding some deep yellow with curcumin. Maybe?

”Hello, my name is Darpy and I escaped Great Britains unruly and bizness suffocating regime to start a new pedal company honoring classical proven designs in modern build quality and affordable-for-rich-ethics in the greatest ”slowly, but unsteady/-efficently”US of the mada fakin A! Here I can...

Deep enclosures for the ones thinking deeply, big boxes for those aiming big! What about ribbon connectors? Hasn’t this guy troubleshooted and grieved over older Peavey amps OR is this project/scheme/company based on liability that the biz isn’t gonna last even for single decade.

The problem is the lack of character! It’s too bland and would stand out better with some modulation or fx loop for coloring the repeats.

My surgical tubing is a hose from disposable low volume air mask so yeah, that’s as surgical as it gets. Those masks are used in infarmys and operating rooms. Yeah, tubing is in. Installed new bridge and changed other pickups too, but something’s still off. I’ll try changing tone caps next as...

My problem child is an SG-like Aria CS-250 so no pick guards or other hollow sections apart the switch and pot cavity. Fixed topmount bridge and so on. I’ll look that article up!

Took guitar apart for bridge change and noticed PUs fit too tightly in their cavities. Maybe that is the source of unwanted body resonance pickup?

Looks complicated and expensive to build! Synths?

Yes,,,If it has clean blend. Where do these noise gaters dwell?🤡 Good! At first I thought you’re not helping, but on the other hand you really might have a point there. HB on neck and p90 (hb sized) on bridge, both originally bridge PUs. Selector switch leaves coil start hanging there on air...

Better to start a thread about this as ”use less gain” isn’t a solution. Long story short replaced crazy microphonic og pups in my main guitar with a wax potted ones. They were fine at first, but after problem came back. Whole guitar is piezo and no matter where I tap it’s heard through...

Take your father-in-law to Sunn O))) concert for a revenge.

Haven’t done any transistor based PPs, but I’ve messed with tubes. Would your circuit be tweakable with adjustable bias or bias balance as it’s done with tubes? If the old NPN is cooked I’d go replacing PNP and NPN sides with new transistors and adding a bias adjustment addon there. With tubes...
