That Synergy stuff looks interesting... I didn’t realize that existed, it’s like guitar racks 2.0 or something. Wild stuff!
Bruce Egnater design
Was first licensed to Randall as the MTS series, then Egnater released the first dual mods. Then licensed to Synergy.
Cool stuff. There were a few RM20s made that housed 20 modules in 10-12RU spaces.
There's also a few great modders out there, Salvation Audio being probably the biggest one.

Certainly not as a commercial product, but I am actually planning a Black Eye with a cabsim and a D.I. output as a one-shot solution for quick guitar recording because it's something I've personally always wanted. Probably won't be doing a lot of guitar-oriented stuff for 500 series though.
I am planning a couple mic preamps, but they will be original (tube) designs. There's enough Neve stuff out there, not planning on cloning anything.The way I’m choosing to read it is that a Neve 1073 mic preamp is right around the corner
albeit with a tube added, because reasons lol

Those look great @szukalski! As it turns out, I also have a gain changer in my current JLC cart and another one of dylan159’s designs, the Chewborg. Yours look great man!

I have a Chewborg in SMD from six months ago which I’m not happy with and will redo in through hole. It’s a tricky one for clean routing and the 7th control makes it awkward to find a nice 125B layout. I’m tempted to make it 1590BB combo with the PLLedal.

First time making a full 3D model of a board. Adaptation of @Chuck D. Bones mosfet drive/Cowpoker to get back in the swing of layout/jlcpcb production as I lead up to having a shop. Got the prototypes in and they work just fine, what a sweet drive pedal. Also got some relay bypass and Buzzaround boards (again based off Chuck’s schematic) in that I put a switch on to control the output buffer stage. Was very pleased all the boards worked after not doing anything like this for a year plus!

"phantom" power for emg pickups, with a high ass impedance buffer for passives (I think Douglas Self said this design is 6.1MΩ). really want to throw actives in the last couple of my guitars with passives but don't want to do any routing.

How does this work? You don't need the 9v battery anymore?

EMG sells a box that basically powers pickups via the ring contact, this is just a lot of power filtering with that, a voltage switch and a separate buffer.
ES-918
The ES-918 is an external 18 Volt power supply for EMG Pickups. If you have an instrument that doesn’t fit a battery or you don’t want to install a battery in your guitar, the ES-918 is perfect for you. You can easily power your EMG pickups with 9 or 18 volts using a stereo cable. In addition...

Love the hybrid NPN footprint, I’m starting to accumulate enough to start doing that on my boards

Where I can, I use SMD transistors. If something ain't in production, then I try to avoid it on a layout. If it weren't for other builders, I wouldn't include the through-hole!
Yeah, SMD, alas, the waive of the future for THD...

New resonant LPF for onboard preamp applications:
This version is for low tunings, with big enough cap footprints at C5 and C6 to allow using 2.5% polypro film caps in the money slots. and I made it easier to use parallel caps in those slots to get better tuning resolution, since this design can be very tweaky stability-wise.
