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 was vaguely thinking of the ending of Candide, when the main character Candide essentially gives up hoping for a better world to live, rejecting the unrelenting optimism of his tutor with the...
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.
And hopefully it stops the slugs and snails from nesting in the control cavity as well.
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.
Ironically, there appears to be no...
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.
Breadboards...
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 think the brighter text is good. Makes it really pop.
And no worries about the drilling templates. I needed them for my own use so may as well share them too. Once you get the basics of Inkscape...
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...
Man, there are clones of everything it seems. Even the clones have clones (at least with pedals).
I think it's terribly ambiguous. Adult kangaroos vary too much in size depending on individuals and species.
He definitely knew how to play guitar:

Just skip to around 3:36
Doh! That's a good reminder. I already have Friture which can capture audio from my THR amp via USB. It has very little latency. I always forget I have it though, and only used it once to see what...
That's exactly what I noticed when experimenting with my TS clone. Multiple diodes in series didn't clip much. Blue LEDs (any colour except red actually) didn't clip noticeably unless I maxed the...
I mostly know what the coupling is doing in the circuits. Just pointing it out as an example of things that the book glosses over. The passage "our signal is AC coupled into the booster so the...
Yes, it does look good, and definitely won't gloss over details like Jack's book does. But at nearly 120AUD I might give it a miss for now. The Orman book does a good job of explaining how things...
I picked the Jack Orman ebook Guitar Effects Explained from Amazon today. So far I am finding it very readable. It avoids too much math, and reads like a plain English description of how effects work...
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.
Well spotted! I can never have enough SCA Clear. Or etch primer, or Primer-Filler, or ...
If it was me I would soften the point by not cutting right to the end of the neck pocket, but only about 2/3 of the way. But if it was me, I so rarely play above the 15th fret or so that I have never...
