i made a couple of patch setups for my pedals, unfortunately, the cable is so thick that the 'springs' (coming from the back of the jacks) wont fit over it, so i ditched them... all good so far, but is it wrong to assume that the thickness of the cable will compensate for a 50 cm length of wound...

or maybe you just dont know how to tweak the spiders to make them sound good. i dont give a crap if people say 'the presets are crap', some are, some are not. it depends on either what you like, or what you like should sound like.... ive got a spider III 210, and im impressed on the tweakability...

good stuff, look forward to hearing it :AOK:

when i bought my digitech rp80 multi fx at the shop, the guy told me to turn down the bass and tone dials to 9 o'clock on my amp and always use the pedal with just the bridge position with the guitar... was he full of crap? needless to say i didnt take his advice as it sounded way too muddy on...

im thinking of moving, cause where i live, i know at least 25 guitarists, and 1 drummer :rotflmao: , who doesnt want to be in a band. it sucks too cause most of the guitarists i meet dont live nearby or move away. so.. when are you guys guna release a cd?

awesome solo :rockon: how long have you been in a band for?

done... here are the results stock capacitor "tracon" capacitor after 6 seconds on both clips, i rolled down the neck tone control and you will hear a subtle difference between them.. so experimentation is the key! :AOK: for the record, for both clips i played the same riff, in the neck...

:AOK: cheers mate, that helped a LOT "• Use 0.001µF (microfarad) for treble-bleed circuits on volume controls. • 0.020µF and 0.050µF are common guitar tone control caps • 0.050µF and .100µF are used for electric bass" so i assume 0.100uf is 1uf? btw those green "tracons" on my diagram look...

by the way, theres at least another 30 or so electrical capacitors, resistors etc, with different values that ive yet to desolder, but the majority of them appear similiar to the ones in the picture

judging by your amount of posts, and your obvious electrical experience, do you honestly reckon any of these could be used on a guitar???

ahh k :thwap: i seen on ebay that very similiar looking things were coveted "bumblebee" gibson capacitors selling for 80 bucks each.. thanks anyway

:D 2 words.. borat mankini.... theyll probably stretch to fit anyways. if not, youre guna be sore in the morning :rotflmao:

okay, heres a crappy quality pic of some of the capacitors ive managed to extract so far.. there are some small orange disc shaped ones ive yet to remove, mainly cause i grip the pliers too tight and crush them :rotflmao: but below is a pic with descriptions of what was written on each one ive...

ive been on a neverending quest to mod my ebay robison 'les paul', not only to improve the sound, but to gain experience in modifying guitars (if i stuff anything up, the guitar cost me 167 aud and wouldnt really affect me).. im moving house at the moment, and as i was cleaning up the yard, i...

heres another one... 5LRIhkSGgrY
