I've heared plenty of people use the word Mojo to describe electronics circuits before. I appologise that it offends you. Sorry I made you kill yourself. I appologise that I said something incredibly stuipid which you feld obliged to shoot me down on. I know you have an electronics degree and I resp...

Shut. Up. Do you know how to make a silently switching A/B box with low cost components for mass production? No. You don't know what you're blathering on about. Overcomplicated - idiot. What purpose would that serve for a company interested in making profit - adding unecessary logic and components....

The circuit seems incredibly simple though, not like the behringer over-complicated no-mojo circuits. Overcomplicated? No- MOJO ? Seriously - shut up. You don't know what you're talking about. Overcomplicated? I can't get over that - what a stupid-ass thing to say, you're probably comparing a Digit...

It looks like a lookalike switch at quick glance, certainly not a big chunky EH switch, but I did the unplug-the-battery test and it seems to be true bypass. I'll have a proper look tomorow and find out for definate. The circuit seems incredibly simple though, not like the behringer over-complicated...

Those things are flaming gross (pardon the bad pun). Seriously though, that's the most tasteless way of making on the of the most beautiful guitars ever built look nasty! Whoever had the idea should be shot!

OK, couldn't find it, but yeah, that was basically my thinking upon buying it, and was pleasantly suprised when I plugged it in. :)

Now you mention it, I think I've seen them boxed as belcat before now, cheers Bob! I knew I'd seen them before but couldn't remember the manufacturor and was confused because it didn't say on it and came unboxed as is. I dunno what the consensus on here was when they where discussed, will try to fin...

Mystery cheap delay

Just baught myself a delay for £10 from Ca$h Converter$. It's nothing too fancy but it sounds pretty good, true bypass, metal case, doesn't colour the sound at all (appart from the delay, obviously, but you know what I mean), I'm pretty sure it's analogue, and in honesty it was a good use of a £10...

I totally agree... except with Teles, where blonde with a black guard is sexy as fuck! Irresistable! And I want one badly!

It's completelly possible to use a 1 meg tone and 500k volume as they are totally independant of one another. Bigger tone pot will mean there is more resistance pushing the cap out of the circuit, meaning potentially less highs will be lost when you have the tone controll not rolled off at all/in th...

Doog's right, they are different things. Tap is something you can do to a single coil, you can't split a single coil.

Students budget well? Lol me and a mate drank $200 of spirits today, damn absinthe hangovers suck! No, I think he meant the noun. He knows what a student's budget is like, i.e. they don't have a lot of money to spend. He knows it well . Malik is correct, as I too am a (just finished) student, I am ...
