I have the same 25 watt that I have been using for three years. I would not go higher than 30 watts or you will fry your caps and pots.

thank you thats all i was looking for

MOD EDIT the one i have now is beat up and at 40 watts i felt it was cooking the pots, as when i changed my pickups my tone pots died on me, so the iron is to blame.

The comment was unappropriate, but still did not require any flaming from you.

ok a quicky, for doing the electronics on a guitar what wattage of soldering iron is needed?

thanks a lot, im gonna go for it i'll keep you guys informed of my progress

yeah man i found that a whole 4 seconds after you, so much for an hour eh lovekraft ok gonna see what i can do with this....

anyone recomend an easier effect to try and build first? id love to try out a mxr phase 90, they easy?

thanks man i'll do some digging to see what i can find

hey there, i really love the sound of the Ibanez WH-10 Wah pedal, but there...

1- impossible to find

2- expensive

3- the casing is plastic

so i wanna make my own.

firstly is this possible? if i get the schematic and a case could i knock one up fairly easily? and secondly where could i find the schematic for this wah? im kinda new to this and id really love to give it a try.

so whats the verdict, possible or a waste of time?

thanks

ok im making this soon, but im curious to how it actually works with the ds-2, can somene explain?

thanks dude, helped a lot

ok i recently bought a very nice boss ds-2 and i would like the footstwitch to switch between turbo modes. the only problem is that it is impossible to get the boss FS-5L in my little part of the world so i wanna make one myself.

basically what is involved in the pedal...ie components and stuff like that and how easy it will be to knock together. getting the parts shouldnt be a problem and im handy with a soldering iron so im confident this should be a walk in the park...

well i was refering to my father, who is an electricion...

anyway im really sorry for being a bit of an idiot, i really appreciate the help and i suck at explaining what i mean most of the time anyway. so thanks guys

ok handbag down Mr Wes...i appreciate the help, even though u gave it in a 'i cant believe hes dumb enough to ask' kinda way, just remember were not all as talented as you

thanks Mr Fruit that helped a lot, i'll let you guys know next week how i get on,

adios!

thanks guys, i know im a complete noobie but thanks for taking the piss anyway didnt i say that the duncan site didnt help? so ner =P

i can solder, and will have a qualified electrician looking over my shoulder- thanks dad...its just i cant get the wiring diagrams for a standard les paul, there all for strat types and coil taps and stuff, and i cant find the 3 switch, 2 h/b, 2 tone, 2 vol. diagrams, not even seymour duncan has them

umm thanks for the speedy reply, but dont u think i would have thought about that?

i have a dimarzio humbucker arriving next week and im planning to stick it into my epi les paul, DIY stylee. i have a decent idea of what to do, but id really love a step by step tutorial. after searching the net i cant find ANYTHING like this, so any help will be much appreciated.

thanks
