New Photos and Slideshows

April 10, 2019

After going through a bunch of WordPress slideshow plugins before I finally found a good one, I have started adding new photos of my projects. Eventually, each one will start out with a slideshow of the finished product, followed by whatever build details I have for it. Some of them are quite lengthy.

For this, I built a photo stand that holds each piece at a good angle under the workshop lights. This will make the job of re-photographing everything much faster and easier.

Superfreaky Brain Fart

August 24, 2020

Not sure what possessed me at the time, but I built this with A250 tone pots and B500 volume pots, and the B pots are doing their usual on/off switch behavior - no change until almost zero, then cut off completely. After my most recent testing, I have concluded that B pots have no place in a guitar at all. I probably did this because I have just two A500 pots in the parts bin, one mini and one full sized. A few days ago I ordered a lot of them, when they come in, I will swap these out. In the meantime, the B's will do, especially at full volume, so I can check this thing out.
