  1. hi guys! i'm back. I tried to built a sustainer yesterday but it doesn't work......I used a wrapping wire ( totally resistor was about 6 ohms) and i put directly a magnetic core (magnetic bar from an old single coil pickup),is that the mistake? i built fetzer valve/ruby and i used my middle pickup as driver's input,my driver was in neck position and my bridge as my amp's input...when i turn the gain and volume knob from fetzer valve/ruby the driver makes noise even without amp after...so it reacts as a speaker..it makes biiiiiiip but no more sustain.....So now i make a new core in wood with steel plots (like a pickup) and i'll put a magnetic bar below the plots...but for the wire i've a copper varnished wire about the same diameter than the wrapping wire but i don't how th remove the varnish ( i used fire but it does'nt work so maybe a cutter? ).... I tought...maybe the mistake's coming from my capas cause i used only 10V capas. Another question: u need 2 pickups+1 driver or u can use 1pickup+1driver for this system and put in // the outputs like this: pickup output --->guitar's jack output \-->fetzer ruby input Thank's in advance for your answer....
  2. Thanks for your answers ....Be careful when your measuring input impedance of coils....it's not only the resistor but inductance too. However for those little coils-driver impedance=R (imo).
  3. Hi guys! First post! This post is too long and i was so tired to read it entirely.....and i've some questions: -psw: for the samples u posted ...did you use this schematic ? If you did it ,how did you do the harmonic/normal mode ? Caus' i don't see any switch on this picture.... Thanx you in advance..best regards.
