Ha! I’ve cracked it! In the original diagram I didn’t realise that the right hand terminal on the volume pot was also connected to earth, it just looked like it was missing (and therefore not being us...

@darrenking. Hi Darren, Somewhere in the back of my head I think I remember Mark @markbailey talking about this in one of his YouTube videos. Not sure which one or even if I'm just miss- remembering. ...

@boo I forgot to say that I did look for a pot in my spores box but don’t have one sorry

My favourite song today:

@darrenking, I can see only two ways that the volume control in that circuit would not turn the sound right down to zero 1) It's a dodgy pot, and the minimum setting is not 0 ohms between the middle t...

Hi gang! It seems like a long time ago now, but I did complete this build but there is something odd with the electronics. I have followed the diagram sent by Jonathan (I'll get back to you about the ...

@darrenking in that diagram the ground wires are green and the hot wires are black. The black stranded is I assume a shield, so it goes to ground. It's a pretty fair bet that black solid goes to groun...

My favourite song today. I was at this gig as I've been almost every time the band came to Holland.

Hi gang, I saw the Noisettes at the Cambridge Corn Exchange a good many years ago now. It was the most surprisingly amazing gig I’ve ever seen my exposure to them up until that point largely being thr...

You can dry clamp the neck to mark and drill the bridge holes - just make sure to double check alignment as you are gluing. You can run a ruler down each side and check it intersects with the bridge m...

under an umbrella of wishes and hope I love that phrase!! First time I've ever heard it ...

@tv101 thanks for the feedback, that’s pretty much what I did in the end apart from moving the bass side back but the adjustment for. The test set up I made was more than enough for the scale length b...

Few comments ... 1. That's a good bridge. I've used it on a few builds. Lots of adjustment in that, both for the bridge overall and the individual strings 2. Definitely drill the bridge holes *b...
