damn 3 week lead time for tayda enclosures gonna be up to 4 weeks smh

Hey nostradoomus, I hear you’ve been talking about AI and maybe wondering what it really means for you, so I wanted to take a moment to speak to you directly—clearly, honestly, and in as grounded a way as possible. AI isn’t here as something to fear or to replace the human experience that...

I got zapped by a tennis racket shaped battery powered bug zapper somehow, the kind that converts 9v dc into some AC thing that kills bugs on contact. I was picking up some metal stuff that was on top of it and in and around the "net" with both hands and felt the electricity go across my heart...

For my SG. I'm excited https://sundayhandwound.com/products/hb-fb I'll probably pair it with a Filtertron in the bridge

It's not that the high heat isn't necessary to melt solder - it isn't. But there is always going to be some heat energy lost in transmission when introducing the iron to the component/solder pad. Setting the iron to a high setting allows some of the heat to be lost while keeping the iron...

too soon

I put BAT41's in the last klon I built. As z2amiller mentioned, their curve is close to Ge and they're easier to buy and work with.

The signal path is the top part. The non-signal path is the bottom part, where the + and - interact. Carbon composite (not film) resistors are suppose to have a certain mellowness to the sound but only in old vintage tube amps where they have like 400 volts running thru them. They don't have...

Feral wasn't replying to you in particular, he was adding his opinion to the conversation. If you're not familiar with Feral, he can be a bit... catty

I just placed an order for a big ish restock. I wanted to compare the cost of shipping/tariffs with and without semiconductors. I went through and picked out about $20 of resistors and capacitors and my shipping came out to $21. I then added the op amps, transistors, and diodes I need and my...

Here you go...

Take your time, go slow. Make sure each component is exactly where you want it before soldering, when you do solder, do it one leg at a time, ie push the capacitor thru, solder one leg, look at the component and see if it needs to be straightened, and if so then hold the board in your hand while...

I wanted to do something to make the fret ends nicer on my low cost SX guitar so I purchased the Stewmac fret end file and a micro mesh popsickle stick and got into it. On the second time around it clicked for me so I went back and redid the first side, then polished the fret ends, then the fret...

Love the font and that 3D effect on the lettering. I used Gibson SG witch hat style knobs over a plain black enclosure on my first build of one of these. I have another in the works that will look like the cover of their Bonfire disc set whenever the weather warms up enough to put the clear coat...

The LED switch could go in the middle, but check out the trace that grounds the input of the pedal when the circuit is bypassed.

The audio probe cap voltage value really doesn't matter. The main purpose is that it blocks DC and lets enough of the audio signal through. The capacitance rating should be lower though, maybe 10-100nf so it doesn't trim off too much of the signal These are my favorite jacks, but these and...

The way I view AI is that it's only helpful if you already have a background of experience in the subject matter you're asking of it. I use AI to help me write sentences with good words so I don't sound like a dumbass, but really only if there's one word I just can't think of and the thesaurus...

The sleps These two compete for daddy's love and attention. Despite every attempt to make them both feel included and equally loved and attention'd, they insist on a fevered sister rivalry that is quelled only by the midnight hour when the zoomies are strong

(not for me)

yeah it's hard bc I want the footswitch hanging off the end of the board because I like it as far down as possible, so space is limited. If i ran the in/out traces on either side, then the trace connecting the bottom left and bottom right lugs would interfere with the bottom center lug of the...
