Ok, so I wired it for true bypass and put a Millennium 2 indicator led drive circuit in, and that all works fine. I also did the following mods, which I acquired from the forum at freestompboxes.org:...

Which resistors are the ones in question? Anybody know?
So after some research and consultation with a lab technician that I am friendly with, I believe I have an answer. If run on both a supply and a battery simultaneously, the battery would likely...
I didn't expect the mechanical disconnect to fail, mostly I don't like the cheap connectors that have it built in. All the closed switch jacks I have seen are housed in plastic. The two conductor...
The dc power jack on a pedal is switched such that when you plug in a power supply, it disconnects the battery from ground, so that you are not running it on both battery and the adapter at the same...
Do you need a 3dpt switch Spud? I thought that was only necessary if you want to add an led indicator...
I have a newer (late 90's to early 2k's) Dunlop Crybaby, marked Benicia California. I got it along with some comic books from a friend, and haven't much used it because to me it sounds like crap. It...
I recently got back my old Boss MT-2 Metal Zone from a student I had lent it to so he could experiment with pedals. I had long ago shelved it since I had "outgrown it", it's tone being far inferior...
That's true, and I am working on that mod, but it's a little difficult because the TS-10 housing doesn't fit a round panel mount switch. I have read on forums that for this reason, many people...
Thanks Voodoo, you da man. But one more question, of the green and orange wires that go to the original switch, which is the pcb in, and which is out?
Just a squawk when switched, the sound does not continue. Analogman and the others whose tutorials I used said that this would happen to a TS-10 when modded to 808 spec, which is weird, because the...
I have modded my TS-10 to TS-808 spec, and would like to add a "true bypass" switch. I am aware that the case won't fit the switch, but I can work around that, and if worse comes to worse, I'll...
Hello All
I modded my TS-10 to bring it to TS-808 spec, and as expected, it now squawks when switched on at high levels. I have read on Analogman's website that he has fixed this problem, but I...
Hello all. I am trying to get a piece of brass to make my own tone block for my Strat, but everywhere I look it seems I will have to buy much more than I need, and brass aint cheep... does anybody...
Has anyone tried these out? I need to replace some saddles and these look like a good idea. Also have been considering titanium saddles,as I have heard they sound great. Any input guys?

I have been teaching for a few years now, both privately and for one of my local music stores, and I stay competitive with my local market. The standard rate for most places in the area I live is...
The only way you can really go wrong is if the guitar won't set up playably in the tuning you want. As I am sure you have gathered if you have read all the replies to this thread, there is no one...
Hello all. I had a very interesting experience yesterday, and thought I would share. One of my old teachers sent me an email about carbon fiber guitars. He is a fabricationist, and we are both into...
I still have a big block of beeswax... What is your preferred method Deeaa?
Btw, I use a high quality water based artist's acrylic lacquer that is usually meant for brushing. I just cut it with...
Has anyone here ever finished a maple neck? I ordered a maple Strat neck, and I asked for a flame figured piece. I had originally planned on leaving it all straight up raw, unfinished. I've sanded...
I happen to be friends with one of James Trussart's luthiers, and he is making me a neck for the Strat body I built. I know, I know, if I made the body, why not make the neck as well? Well, right...
I am trying to get together the hardware and wiring for this Strat that is now like 5 years in the making. I am going traditional (three single coils) and most of the wiring I have seen has one...
Uh, huh huh,... huh huh... oh yeah... huh huh...
It's a Strat.
A lefty neck on a righty guitar would be strung reverse. Thus the length of string to each tuner changes, effecting the guitar's...
So I come back from Tehran, Iran, to my home in the SF bay area, and there is this almost guitar sitting there. I worked on it right up until I left to catch my plane, and now it needs a capacitor,...
