    DIY Tube Pedal?

    supposedly the low voltage is better for distortion because they have to work a lot harder to run, giving higher distortion and minimum boost. or so I've heard, anyways

    DIY Tube Pedal?

    Ooooh, nice. Know if there are any step-by-step guides, instead of just a wiring diagram. Haven't dealt with those since grade 9 XD

    DIY Tube Pedal?

    Anyone know how I would go about building the simplest possible tube overdrive pedal? I'm looking at a tube amp that is very good for the money, but doesn't quite have as much gain as people would like, so I want to use the pedal on top of that. I don't think it would need any controls...

    String Tension Super Thread (Got a string question? Post it here!)

    Here are the sets I think I am settled on for 27 inch. Assuming it is properly set-up from the factory, I think I can get away without a trussrod adjustment Gauge (weight in lbs) Standard: 9 (14.73) + 12 (14.70) + 15 (14.47) + 25w (19.3) + 32w (17.38) + 46w (18.06) + 60w (18.46) = 117.1lbs...

    String Tension Super Thread (Got a string question? Post it here!)

    What's a good tension per string for a 25.5" seven-string, that should keep everything moderately tight? (It's my first 7-string, so I'm just gunna go with the middle-ground, and decide if I want it looser or tighter when I replace them) I would prefer a balanced set if possible (i.e. all at or...

    Tony Iommi diagnosed with lymphoma

    I am doing my first gig in a week and a half (one song, it's for my guitar class), and our band had already picked Black Sabbath's eponymous song to play. I am going to make a point of dedicating it to his recovery. Seeing them is on my bucket list, so I really hope he pulls through

    Jack too big?

    Problem is, if I try to change it, and something else turns out to be wrong with it, they won't take it back. also, I don't know how to take it appart. My bass has a control cavity, this one doesn't. It does have a pickguard, but I can't get the knobs off and thus, can't remove it. Update...

    Jack too big?

    Ok, so I bought a guitar at the pawn shop (not telling you the price, it was embarasingly low... and it was also half off the embarassingly low price). So I went to plug it into my bass amp (lowest volume settings I could to prevent damage), and the output jack for the instrument is too big...

    Cheaper bass parts

    Just basses at the moment, though I do have a couple of ideas for a boutique and neon version. The standard line comes first though :D edit: Max, although Guitar Fetish doesn't have all the parts I need, you have cut a good 40 dollars off my overhead, and in the long run, you have no idea how...

    Cheaper bass parts

    I do appreciate that you are trying to help, but everyone agrees I have a good idea. And many people in history have made it with a good idea and a lot less money to their name than I. Edit: though the sources you have listed will be helpful, and for that I thank you :)
