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....
