    I never thought of this… lead exposure…

    I use this stuff to wash my hands after handling anything at my workbench. I learned about it because one of the ranges where I used to shoot a lot had it in their bathrooms. I'll wash my hands up to my elbows with this stuff then wash again with regular soap. It's my little ritual before...

    Josh Scott Signature JHS Relevator by BilT

    There's really only one person in the world that can play this guitar. And that's Steve Morse. His right hand control tweaking, pickup switching, is a natural part of his guitar playing. Having said that, I'd love to own a Steve Morse Signature. But I'd probably just hang it on the wall and...

    Fender, the orange guy of guitarbrands?

    Oooof, I played an SWR Strawberry Blonde acoustic amp for years back in the day when I had an acoustic gig. What a great amp!

    Josh Scott Signature JHS Relevator by BilT

    Man, some of those old Blazers from the late 70s early 80's were great guitars.

    PPCB Utisol (Dawner Prince Red Rox)

    This thing has an incredible "thump" to me. Kinda sounds like playing through a 4x12. How they got that in a pedal is beyond me. Or it could be just a happy accident. This is a highly recommended build.

    What’s on *YOUR* workbench?

    Ever heard Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal play? He's a committed fretless guitar player and probably the only fretless player that makes music with it and not just a gimmick. He's an amazing player.

    What's in the mailbox? 📬 📦

    And last but not least, @jcpst had a post about building the PPCB Rain Coat. And it inspired me to pull mine and out play it. I forgot how much I liked it. It's basically a muff variant. I mentioned this to @Robert and this showed up in my mailbox yesterday...... For those of you that...

    What's in the mailbox? 📬 📦

    Been an interesting couple of days in my mailbox. I'll start with my favorite topic, pickups..... :p I got a box from Adam Asmus from Tonehatch pickups. As most of you know, I'm a bit of a strat-a-holic. But that being said, I've been trying to find/configure my ideal strat bridge pickup...

    What’s on *YOUR* workbench?

    NGD Part II! (Because good things come in twos?) Couple of weeks ago I posted about the new Les Paul I just got. This episode of Mike's NGD's is a little outside the scope of my tradition vintage-style sensibilities..... Background: (TL;DR skip ahead to the pics) I've been wanting a more...

    Simble / Symbolic OD MKII mods?

    Here's the schematic to the PPCB Symbolic. Probably the first thing I'd look at to make it less "muddy" is reduce the amount compression that's inherent with the circuit. This circuit is a bit strange in that it's like a backwards Zen with a set of hard clipper BEFORE the soft clipping. I would...

    Simble / Symbolic OD MKII mods?

    Ahh I thought you already had a Simble and wanted to mod it. So you want to mod a pedal you don't even have yet? Welcome! You'll fit right in here...... :p

    PPCB Cheese Monger / Lovetone Big Cheese

    I get it, I keep saying I'm not a fuzz guy but I have like 30 fuzzes I've built and I'm down in the transistor rolling rabbit hole even as we speak (or type heh). I have a love/hate thing going on with fuzzes.

    PPCB Cheese Monger / Lovetone Big Cheese

    Oooof, I read the name and started squirming a bit in my seat.........heh. How does it sound?

    Southland

    It's so close but sounds so different. I did not like the Southland stock. Which is why I modded mine with Ge clippers. The Lightspeed is still my #1 go to low gainer.

    Simble / Symbolic OD MKII mods?

    Also, which Simble? There some confusion with the Simble name. It was offered by Mad Professor (I think) but was not designed by Bjorn Juhls. It's a nice sounding Zen Drive variant. But the name "Simble" was re-purposed by Bjorn with his own company and I think that was more of a boost than an...
