    Been a minute - dev question

    So if I am reading you correctly - you used resistors to make the series connected coils the same amplitude/signal strength as a/the single coil? If true, it's something I have never tried. I do understand the tonal differences between series and parallel harnesses but that is not the fight I am...

    Been a minute - dev question

    In a real way, the instrument this is headed toward is exactly the space the Gibson recording guitar occupies - it is a purpose built, very low tuned, studio oriented instrument. And by low I mean REALLY low - 20hz low. It will be all about subtleties. I do understand your meaning. There is...

    Been a minute - dev question

    Yes it does - but not entirely. This is my shortcomings, and not your lack of clear explanation. I have two passive switching options; a 4-position or a 3-position. The 4-position; bridge and middle only in series, bridge and middle in series w/neck additional in parallel, middle and neck in...

    Been a minute - dev question

    Howdy stranger! I don't see a problem w SMD opamps - I'm chasing clean and isolated, so how I get there is predicated on ONLY that. I DOES have to live in a bass' control cavity and I do have room built in to mine as they were designed forever ago with SD pre's as standard. I'd prefer to keep...

    Been a minute - dev question

    Perhaps if each hot lead from each pickup is buffered and the buffered signal only goes to a specific coil's tone pot there will be no interactivity. But I wanted to ask the question as this notion has been a serious mind-f!ck. I started down this path passively in a Telecaster harness. I sent...

    Been a minute - dev question

    Hey y'all - I got a bee in my bonnet to do something unusual and thought to hodgepodge boards from here as part of it. The end-goal is an onboard active system for a three pickup bass - the plan is to isolate the signals from each of the pickups and dedicate passive tone pots to each of them...

    I SAW that movie (World's Fastest Indian reference). I've heard that - my neighbors may think me mad. Well . . . . mad-ER 🤪

    Has anyone tried the new black/gold 3PDT from Tayda?

    San Diego (La Jolla specifically) was particularly vibrant today.

    Hair-brained idea - by-pass switch with three or four parallel on/off switches

    Thanks so much for the forage material - I have two Life pedal projects to finish before I pursue this so I have time to digest what you've linked to. MUCH appreciated!

    Better BASS Guitar FUZZ?

    Piano designs are EXTREMELY difficult to execute - particularly when dealing with core diameters that are friendliest to guitar and bass tone - but an incredible tonal option. GHS offers this, as does Rotosound. SIT as well if I am not mistaken. I had VERY brief instruction and time with the...

    Hair-brained idea - by-pass switch with three or four parallel on/off switches

    I have a two channel pedal board presently (thank you Boss OC5) and want to run different distortions on each side of it. Doing that independently is simple enough, but I'd like to be able to run multiple distortions on each of the channels - in parallel rather than series - and be able to turn...

    Enamel Clear-coat developing cracks

    If you mix Krylon or lacquer and enamel this can happen - best solution is living with it if you can. The only way to truly fix it is to start over with friendly (to one another) materials. I learned this the hard way putting lacquer over a factory Fender finish - black over white. it looked...

    Important: Dust Covers for 16mm Potentiometers!

    I use a thin layer of silicone adhesive . . . . because I has it 🤪

    it appears you have an open diode and resistor(?) slot - why is that? Good looking build!
