HHHNNNGGGG!!!!
Yeah man I should have it in a couple days. Dunable guitars are INCREDIBLE. I played some at NAMM again, and like, damn, I was really into guitar again for a minute :)
Luckily I've handled the neck before:

The first couple years of Dwarfcraft was done into that little guy. I still like it a lot for amp sim stuff, such as giant trade shows where you can't hear an amp anyway. Every other amp sim I've tried sounds like fried garbage.

Two ways of doing this with a single knob. One is to use a ganged pot, log/antilog or audio taper/reverse audio taper. Don't know whether you have the depth in the body cavity to do this. To avoid re-inventing the wheel, look at this article: http://www.harmonycentral.com/articles/-panpot-guitar-re...

Sorry, ROb, I think you have a two pot situation.

So most of the rack here is for R&D of the dwarfcraft Modules, so there's a lot of those up there. The joystick is a (mostly) working thing but the parts are too rare to put into production. But OK, the whole rundown? TOP ROW LtoR Pittsburgh Double Helix, Dwarfcraft HAX, Dwarfcraft Argue D2 (pro...

What now? Eurorack Stinky Sizers? Yes you could say I am familiar. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/DqHpiaYU0AA5IxD.jpg good call on the MATHs. The way I use the modular is all centered around modulating really flexible envelopes, and "weird" oscillators, historically the Makenoise Telharmonic, ...

EHX also owns New sensor (or vice versa) which is a pedal parts company. So while making shitloads of money off of most other pedal companies by selling them parts their EHX parts are essentially free. We've even been getting enclosures that are partially drilled for the SMM/POG 2 layout from the in...

strat pickups

Hey folks! I've got TWO traditional SSS strats at the moment, and they both have like, CRAZY low output pickups. One is an 82, the other is a fairly recent Squier. the 82 is the worst, by far, like, no sustain even through a big amp, it goes attack-feedback. :( Anyway, I'm hoping some of y'all have ...

shrug emoji, last Aen release.

Probably the last "Aen" track that will come out. The project/name has been retired. Expect more musical nonsense from Minnesota Nice.

Many years ago I had a synth get rained on super bad. I was advised to open it up as much as possible and take a hair dryer to the guts. It worked quite well! Now, your situation is a bit... stickier. In that the sugars and whatnot in the drink are making your synth guts sticky. If you're going at i...

youtube is always your friend with these type of things. how are they working with the modular stuff? The keys has a pair of dedicated cv/gate outputs, which is great. I had to make some cables (stereo 1/4" to dual mono 1/8") to get it going, but once I fought my way through the setup in ...

I found the Octatrack really easy to get up and running, with the help of some youtube tutorials, of which there are PLENTY. The "analog" series is considerably trickier, but again, really well covered on youtube, forums, etc. I traded a digitone for the RYTM, and the Digitone is kind of a...
