First time using an audio probe and it worked like a charm! Found a lifted trace after C9 on my Open Source Tubescreamer build. Fixed it up with a bit of solder, and now it works perfectly! That was so easy, I can't believe it 8)
That's all. Had to tell somebody that would understand. My wife just rolls her eyes.
Congratulations! I understand the thrill.
My wife rolls her eyes when I get excited about pedal stuff. I remember fixing something that hadn't been working for ages, and she just said, "so?" Pffff.
She's generally cool with stuff I do, but sometimes I wish she was more enthusiastic. I bet you guys get that.
Also, congratulations. I love solving any problem, and I know just how satisfying it is.

Big congrats! You'll always find a use for one of those!

Yeah, I get this. My wife is happy for me in a general sense when I accomplish something, but pedal building is where my enthusiasm is directed; hers is directed elsewhere.
Pshh, wives. They just don't get pedals, but on the other hand they are very sexy (the wives I mean)
;)
Ha! I knew you guys would get it ;)

The pedals aren't bad either.
yeah, hehe
when i finished my SLO clone amp, she just said "cool"
to me it was like finding pirates hidden gold
Nice work!
I do love the feeling of finding and solving the problem in a project. Audio probes are pure gold, and so is the continuity test function on a DMM. Between those two, you can solve just about any basic pedal problem.
