Sounds feasible. It would be for an idea mixing different blocks (clean from X, dirty from Y, Pi and power from Z) so nothing ground breaking but would require a bit of thinking. I suppose you forgo relays for actual switches then?

🖕 :ROFLMAO: Yeah, I guess I just wouldn't know where to start. Probably wise to try to build "block by block" and not be too fussy about lengths etc I suppose like you would on a PCB? Hah ok. But there is no software like PCB softwares that make it fool proof by saying "hey you should have a...

How do you guys even plan a turret board? Is there some alien technique, workflow or software? I am already brainstorming for a much further build that would require a lot of trial and error so I am figuring turret is the way to go.

I feel very much inclined to just jump in any thread mentioning a TS or a 808 and say "bad monkey" aaaaaahhhh I feel better now thanks. Carry on.

Man you are on a roll lately. Classy insides, classy outsides (never thought I would say something like this to anyone tbh)

TME and Mouser order for my amp build came in today. Good thing I uploaded my BOM with component references for my schematic directly to Mouser. I ain't sorting that.

amp building stuff starting to come in!

Pickups are very personnal really, but given the massive used market for those just... try some out? If you keep an open mind and some patience, you can try dozens of pickups for basically the price of a stamp in and out. Also medum-hot is where it's at. And Pickup height should be the go to...

Womp indeed :(

I would be very curious to know how much metal printing at JLC for such a part would cost. I always found Hammond to be stupidly expensive for what they were, and I'd be very interested in more convenient shapes like yours.

Then you know you want something funky.

It's the new edition, it's on lulu.com HERE

I have been eyeing this and/or a Dan Erlewine luthier handbook. I guess “why not both “ is the right answer after your review…

I use it out of habit, although I know it’s not useful or can even be detrimental. I would implement a mute switch but currently I like having a standby solely for the first startup in case I have a short… I easier to locate where when you can isolate the HT line. I implement it on both legs of...

I don't know, building amps is actually 90% locking down the schematic and making the PCB, sourcing parts etc. Actual soldering is basically only 5% of the time I spend on it... so far. All my orders for the VH4-lite project are done beside chassis (need to triple check all footprints before I...

Any of you guys planning on trying a PCB as a faceplate? Seen some cool stuff with it. (Also if you need a cheap chassis, try to find someone simply folding aluminium. Most have 1.5 to 2mm thickness, even powder coated already for fairly cheap)

Took the slowest build and shipping time, I am waiting on the transformers anyway (which are ordered as well). I still can't believe how JLCPCB gets 10 PCB of decent size for such a low price. Shipping to me is like 10€, and 7€ of import taxes. so 47€ for 5 sets of PCBs. Hopefully I didn't make...

With this build you have to be really careful with the side jacks, you can wire them wrong / short them on components easily. Also picture 7 shows a burnt green cable, make sure it still does its job without shorting. The general grounding scheme of the pedal is also a bit wierd with those...

This. There are quite a few kit and I would recommend starting with one. It doesn’t have some thing you never use, but building a kit while trying to understand signal / supply chains is a great way to get into it. As a bonus you’ll get a functioning amp at the end on top of the know how. We...
