    OK, that makes sense if I stop thinking of the Chime as a pedal and think of it as a power amp. The booster is working like a preamp and would probably clip terribly if after the chime. Pretty sure...

    Looks great! Did you also try the tone/boost after the amp?

    Also, this reminds me I should finish my noisy cricket. I lost interest a bit when it didn't sound as good as I hoped. It's the lack of...

    Looks good. I used duplicolor metallic blue over SCA filler primer, with SCA clear over that. I agree that it is hard to get a photo of the metallic finish that does it justice. Mine always looks...

    I am not a fan of headless designs myself, but that's an interesting veneer and your planned finish should highlight the timber and look great.

    With this rainy weather, my strat has been plagued by snails and slugs. Fortunately there's this Slug Snail Copper Barrier Tape Repellent for Strat Tele Guitar.

    I don't underestimate the artistry in playing metal. I listen to metal sometimes but have neither the technical chops or the desire to play it (which is odd given that my main guitar is a...

    It's that ambiguity that greatly annoys me about these attempts to be cute with a serious subject.



    Adult gator? Juvenile? Monster-sized behemoth? At least the latter is on the safe side.

    I am not sure that the 10u cap would cause that sort of problem. The impedance of a cap varies with frequency not voltage level, although I am not sure how a fault would affect that.

    I am not an expert (or a fan) of fuzzes, but it sounds a bit like gating which is just part of the design of some fuzz circuits. On some transistor fuzzes, as the signal level starts to drop, the...

    I am definitely not a shredder. I think I currently max out on picked 16th notes at 70bpm, fast enough for what I play, but quite pedestrian by most standards. Mostly I am happy to string a few...

    I frequently test pedals by putting my looper in front. Lets me just loop the test music while I adjust trimpots or whatever. That would also work for this since I don't think I can get Friture to...

    I think it's terribly ambiguous. Adult kangaroos vary too much in size depending on individuals and species.

    I don't have much experience to compare it with, but on the basswood body of my TL-1TH it did a good job under the Duplicolor. I think it was sanding-ready after a couple of days.
