Re: What are you buying, What's on its way?
1381I've built a JFET preamp I absolutely love to the point I will make a thing - I 'get it'. Also the folks who make the Chase Bliss stuff also make stuff for me at work, and I like them.
Is this the kind of thing we should keep in mind the next time there's a PRF charity build?TylerDeadPine wrote: Wed Aug 28, 2024 11:21 am I've built a JFET preamp I absolutely love to the point I will make a thing - I 'get it'.
Man, if that’s what I think it is, I’m on board. I love (non-clean) boosts and drive at near zero for pedals with circuits that tolerate that. I kind of use pedals more like a studio eq and to goose the amp just a bit. That works for both cleanish and AC/DC grit sort of sounds.Dr Tony Balls wrote: Wed Aug 28, 2024 11:30 amIs this the kind of thing we should keep in mind the next time there's a PRF charity build?TylerDeadPine wrote: Wed Aug 28, 2024 11:21 am I've built a JFET preamp I absolutely love to the point I will make a thing - I 'get it'.
My old buddy used to swear by a Rat with the gain down at like nothing and the volume up.llllllllllllllllllll wrote: Wed Aug 28, 2024 12:45 pmMan, if that’s what I think it is, I’m on board.

Elaborate on this because it sounds perfectly normal to me. You press the switch and it turns on. ?cakes wrote: Wed Aug 28, 2024 1:45 pm the footswitch turns ON only when it's depressed, making it really fucking hard to time everything and remember that this ONE pedal does that. I don't really understand why the hell anyone making pedals would make the depress turn ON (it still turns off on the press).
I have one of those TC guys, and it will stay silent until you lift your foot off the switch.Dr Tony Balls wrote: Wed Aug 28, 2024 2:04 pmElaborate on this because it sounds perfectly normal to me.

Has certainly Seen Some Shit but has been serviced recently; needs a couple of little things yet (one speaker that is anything other than the current Marsland, something that isn't duct tape holding the badges on, a bath), but rips. Seller, an excellent, eccentric old man, threw in a TS25b for free ("oh, I love those amps." "Sucks. Take it.").
