Ahhhh, back in the workshop!! It’s one of my happy places, lots of great memories, and the odd pretty-good guitar, all made in that workshop. 😀 ...

I was expecting a bang, or at the very least a FIZZZZZZ-POP @brie. This is the first time I've attempted anything like this. But, it was a painless...

*Another* excellent build and finish there Mr @clinton - congrats on that and whoever it's going to! Re the BKPs - they've become very expensive now...

Thanks @clinton. I've long fancied doing an amp build. I was booked to do an amp-building course a few years ago, but C-19 arrived, so that course ...

5w is plenty loud enough for my needs @clinton! The "Power" control dials that down to about 0.1w, with anything in between available at the turn of ...

Ouch @Robin!

I have been listening to this a lot recently.

8. The trickier bit. Wiring in the front panel controls. Doing this when the board is already full of components, and mounted in the chassis, means...

That was where we started, a few days ago. Since when I've been busy, wielding a hot soldering iron (when I remember to switch it on) and inhaling th...

I've missed this daily treat thread! A classic @Marcel (won't get fooled again).

Just a few days @Russ - it's possible that another member of this little forum might be there also 😉 I've been told that Ayrshire in August is ...

Is there anything in the fret slot that is stopping them being seated properly? If they won't glue/clamp into place, maybe need to pull them and re-c...

Certainly looks good from here. Nice piece of fretboard wood.

Whenever I see an acoustic build, I think to myself "maybe I should have a go". And then when I read all the detail of the build, and realise al...

You’ve had a busy couple of days Russ!
