New project stuff maybe?

Well these are for you guys, not me. I draw mine up in CorelDraw, but I can export similar vector outputs as the rest so I can make .svg or vector .pdf available to anyone that wants to go that route.
 
Any issues on full volume/gain?
Sorry, missed this comment earlier. No issues with full gain unless I'm too close to the amp. It has typical high-gain noise, but no oscillations or power noise. Haven't tried it full volume yet because it's loud, but I'll give it a shot. Also I'll be getting my real guitar back on Friday so I can try it out with something that isn't just a piece of plastic with cheap pickups in it.
 
Well someone else can draw up a Tayda drill template like that, I'm done o_O Slots with rounded ends take forever to draw up in there, so unless they add an "upload .dxf" option I'm not changing the template I made :p
Stick to your guns, I have no issue with them on an Angle.
From first hand experience Drilling & Filing one slot at a time is a huge PITA!!!, Times 4 Forget it!!!
What brand & size of enclosure will you have settle on?

Oh that reminds me though, the Tayda enclosure's walls are too thick for this, I couldn't get the nuts to thread until I took off the washers. I may have to source enclosures from somewhere else and mill them like I do for the other projects. Amplifyfun may be an option for those that want custom stuffs, not sure where they get their enclosures.
 
As promised, quick and dirty demo. It's just phone audio so nothing incredible, but you get the gist of it. I couldn't find my switched jacks for the FX send, so I just used regular jacks and jumpered FX send and return, that's why there's a jumper hanging out in back,

omgggggggg. heck yes.


only noticed a mild bit of feedback when holding the guitar 'mute' for a second - but it sounded like the type that's completely normal for a high gain amp..

i often see people complaining about high gain preamps oscillating or whatever, but it's hard to tell if what they were reporting was normal feedback oscillation that you would get from any other high gain amp with the volume up (like a peavey 6505 for example), or if it's an inherent self-oscillation in the preamp..

i wonder if the same people realize that you're supposed to use a noise gate in your rig when you're pumping this much gain (and/or volume).

boss NS-2 works a treat for this. had one a long time ago, but then i grabbed one of these second-hand and never looked back

Headphones amp or audio interface is all you need. It's even better to eliminate the amplifier (this kind of feedback is acceptable). Set all knobs to the max and listen ;)

Just fired up the Mockup:

I love that it has two channels and a FX loop! What kind of madness is this!?!
Over-the-top unnecessary madness.

Umm so when did you say this will be available? :)
Not sure yet, it will need to be revised. I've let Jeff know, I think he's waiting on me to give him a revised board outline so he knows what to move. I'll try to get it onto my to-do list soon, but the list is never empty. I have a 4-day weekend coming up here though, so that's something.

Looking forward to the next update! Will be reserving mine when they are available!

I just shot Jeff a message since I've been working from home this week and can't harass him in person. He says he's down to make the adjustments and they probably won't take long. It's really just take out a notch on the bottom for the middle screw hole and move the MOSFET somewhere so it has room to lay down more, and that should be it. I should be able to get the info to him tonight and he'll try to get it done in the next day or two. I will keep everyone posted, partially because you asked me to but mostly because I don't have any hobbies besides this so I spend too much time on forums.
