    Good practice for the eyelet boards in DIY tube amp kits?

    Never built an amp but that's my wet solder dream. However I've built a bunch of fuzz circuits on turret and eyelet boards and designed the layouts myself. I ended up cramming 5+ leads on the same turret. Amps usually avoid that. I learned to place the leads carefully because you can't undo that...

    "Moist Boy", my Low Tide Modulator (Fairfield Circuitry Shallow Water)

    I would totally buy a pedal called Moist Boy. I'd buy a cake called Moist Boy too.

    Boutique Pedal Manufacturers Are Feeling the Tariff Pinch

    Well said. Mojo talk can only carry you so much. Most of these boutique builders don't have an online presence besides a website and Instagram, if that, whereas JHS put a ton of work into their channel.

    Boutique Pedal Manufacturers Are Feeling the Tariff Pinch

    Lately on Instagram I've been seeing small pedal and guitar builders announcing they are going out of business or taking a break, citing tariffs as one of the reasons. Makes sense but also the market has been saturated for a while and let's be honest, who is doing anything new, especially among...

    Am I senile or is this just fuzz with tremolo? Where's the drip reverb? Make it surf, man!

    DBA Germanium Filter - Modded stripboard

    Joe Gore is legit. He wrote and played the guitar part on Tom Waits's Goin'Out West. He toured with PJ Harvey. And more. He has pedal demos on his YouTube channel, which is full.of amazing stuff BTW. I have his Screech octave fuzz. It's exactly as advertised. That is not his website, just a store.

    Frank Zappa Muff - Succesfull rehousing

    See how all those spaces are different? Kerning depends on the specific letter shapes but for a squarish typeface like this one I would make all of those spaces the same width. The two Fs that almost touch are particularly jarring. I'm no typography expert, though.

    Frank Zappa Muff - Succesfull rehousing

    Love it but I kinda want the mustache to be centered with FIN and to be a tad farther away from it. And the kerning in MUFFFIN needs to be adjusted. But don't mind me, I'm just a recovering graphic designer :) Those Fender knobs are the best. Grippy, with the line visible on the side and on...

    ICs and Transistors, Socket or Solder?

    I always socket ICs because I suck hairy yak balls at desoldering and there's too many fake ICs around. But I hate having to bend their legs so they fit the sockets. I don't socket transistors, not even those precious gain bucket queens that work just right, because when I build those fuzzes I...

    All Along The . . . .

    I still don't now what the song means but I like Michael Hedges's version. In one of the live performances, he replaces the line "princes kept the view" with "artists formerly known as Prince too", which was a thing back in the day if you were around. Anyway is this the company whose boards...
