@boo Using MOP for side dots is a bit nerve wracking, eh? Don’t drill to deep homie! I really want to try Iluminlay side dots but they’re definitely pricy coming from Japan and I hear mixed reviews as to how…   Read more»

@boo
Yeah thanks for the tip. I’ll definitely look into it as I’ve loved clear covers ever since I saw them on the Les Paul BFG and I do like a shielded cavity, now I can have both. 🤙

@boo
No chance of missing the octave on that board, nice one!

The future is now! 🤯

Still, it’s polite to ask @boo. 😁

Great Idea @boo. Can I nick that one day?

@boo Planets in our Solar System around the Sun? 🤔

12th fret 🤯 @boo.

With those caps and extremely good soldering, it would be worth having a clear cavity cover to show them off. 

@boo
Agreed! The only “drawback” to a clear cover is that you can’t have shielding. 

@boo I love using my Freqout pedal by Digitech, it’s so much fun, have you tried it?  Nope, never even heard of it. But looks cool. I’m guessing it’s nothing like a sustainer though, right? I mean, how could it…   Read more»

@Boo Top wiring tip (one of many top wiring tips). Make yourself a little “jig” or pattern on a piece of scrap MDF.  Drill 8mm holes in the MDF to replicate where the vol/tone pots, p’up selector switch and output…   Read more»

@boo I would like to add that you too can achieve similar sexy wiring results with a bit of study and well, ahem, practice. It’s not rocket science after all. Just some bonehead easy circuits coupled with some sexy soldering…   Read more»

@boo
Pre-wired circuits are pretty common these days but… you’ve got to like the components they use and pay a hefty premium. They are extremely well done though…

@boo Yes he does. A Fernandes Sustainer to be exact. I have one and they are awesome. These days Steve uses a Sustainiac. Those were on the market waaaaaay back in the day. The first I heard of it was…   Read more»

There’s no FX in there @Boo – just some neat wiring.
You can buy pre-wired looms, or you can get handy with the hotstick …
 

Would need use of that hotstick (aka “soldering iron”) though @Boo … It’d be quite simple to put a circuit together, run it on an “outboard” basis to try it out and decide whether it’d be useable, and then rewire…   Read more»

@boo

Wow, you looked so different back in the day Matt. 🤣

What do you mean? That photo is from last week, I don’t understand…

@boo @tv101. Great advice guys. I’ll keep that Mind well and truly open. 🤯 
🙂🙏🎶🎸

I think it’s an exciting idea and I’m in all the way. Hit me up! Would need use of that hotstick (aka “soldering iron”) though @Boo … It’d be quite simple to put a circuit together, run it on an…   Read more»

Hey @tv101, @boo, @mattbeels, @russ It’s Bruce here!!!! ha ha…def dont mind being a duplicate for Mr Dickinson…. Part 2 is ready and will upload asap….I’ll do my best to shoot some of the process and the mistakes, and I…   Read more»
