I don’t really want a huge, solid, 9V battery sitting in my pedal. It’s going to be difficult replacing it if it ever runs out. So here’s the DC jack. I had to be careful with this, because polarities matter. My pedal seems to work on positive polarity. To insert […]
My new-and-improved equipment has finally arrived! In fact, I can’t believe I haven’t been using some of these. First up—some multi-core wires. Regular breadboard jumper wires aren’t very good for soldering, and I’m pretty sure I busted most of my pots trying to re-solder them. So give it up for […]
So, I’ve not made much progress of the fuzz pedal. For one, everything’s breaking apart! It started with the potentiometers. I’ve probably broken like, 10 different pots in my short career. I asked some fellows on Reddit for help, and I’ve apparently been soldering on to the more delicate parts […]
It took me the whole afternoon, but it was definitely worth it! I was surprised it turned out this well — it was my first time making buttercream. (Note to self: Cloyingly SWEET. Decrease sugar as needed.) Anyway, I’m glad I made the mini snickerdoodles. Extra work, but the cookies […]
Again, I got the recipe from Sally’s Baking Addiction. I’ve finally gotten the “lumpy” texture I’ve always wanted. Snickerdoodles are a true work of art.
At this point in the Bass Fuzz, the only thing that’s holding me back are my subpar soldering skills. One bad solder joint is all it takes. Even if it works, I can’t move the box by an inch or two before it fails again — the connectivity’s just that […]
