I use step less drill bits.

I don't care for most stock Gibson pickups, they do sound muddy. Timbo, another forum member, has wound buckers for me that sound waaaay better. That being said, I have too many of each to count, I have been gravitating towards a tele that I built, with a set of pearly gates. It can be twangy or gritty.

I agree that stock Gibson buckers are muddy and overly compressed. I have used Seymour Duncan's and various small builders over the years. All different wire, magnets, outputs. Got closer to what I wanted with some but never got all the way there. I can add an overdrive to my tele and get a super convincing humbucker  tone but I never can do that with a humbucker.

I will agree with you there. I did that with my Humbucker one. Uber buckers! I do that will all my teles as a  matter of fact. The out of phase setting is useful with humbuckers in series oddly enough.

The schematic says it's a 0.1u (pin 7 of IC2)

Awesome, thank you. I was tired last night, I should've looked at the schematic myself.

The cap on the top right below the .1u has no marking in on or around it, but I noticed it is used in the picture further down. What is the value?

Nice and score on the graphics! What trannies did you use, matched I guess? And how does it compare to a stock phase 90 (which I am sure you have floating around the house...)

I used a matched set of 5457s. I have a spare phase 90 or 10 I'm sure. It sounds chunky like a phase 90 and a tremolo mixed. It only has a few usable settings. I was a little disappointed when I found out it's exactly the same as the phase 90. I'm tempted to just change the values and make it a phaser.

That's killer artwork, but I think Hendrix was more into acid than speed.

Bwahahahaha

By options, do you mean optocouplers?  Then yes, I verified they are correct (gotta love autocorrect)   Will be able to post pictures later this evening

Stupid auto correct, sorry about that.

I can't describe to you the level at which I hate mayo.

I grew up with Miracle Whip and margarine, Miracle Whip is no closer to mayonnaise than margarine is to butter, only time i'd experience butter was if dining out. All mayonnaise is egg yolks, oil, an acid and flavourings/seasonings. At least make sure you've tried the real thing.

Unilever contacted me a few years ago for permission to use a picture i'd posted of a meal i'd made and used Hellman's, no idea if it was ever used but was still pretty cool that they asked.

I have, don't care for it at all.

That's cool man, always makes you feel good inside. I was a freelance photographer for about 18 years. Spent my spare time taking pictures of things I liked.

Got some pictures and are your options oriented correctly?

Your back at it again Jimi, pumping them out. Looks good dude. Do you sell at all or are you a hoarder like me? I keep everything I build.

What will happen is, I get frustrated that they're literally everywhere in my house, so I'll sell them. Then I will build them back again, because I miss them.

Americans have tortured themselves with food and dysfunctional eating since around the time the "TV Dinner" was invented.  Through warped senses of entitlement to convenience and recognition of junk food as a sign of status, we messed up our eating to the point where our brains only recognized three flavors: sweet, salty, and fatty.  At some point, guilt became a new marketing tool to introduce new convenience foods into the American diet, and food that tastes terrible began to become popular because it is "healthier".  No one really tried to shift the American palate away from sweet/salty/fatty because it wasn't profitable.  Today, most average American food is either something brown and unhealthy, or it is a salad or some other penance food like plain steamed cauliflower (likely with something brown on top).  It is basically the opposite of, say, Thai food, which is exciting and favorful.

I blame the parents.

No legacy recipes from either side in our repertoire, i always knew there had to be more to it then what i was eating growing up, the search is endless.

Hellman's always on hand,  sometimes a tube of Kewpie, homemade mayo as an easy make with pantry items, if all you can taste is mayo when you use it, like anything else that overwhelms, you're using too much.

This is a pseudo vibe. It's the Dr. Phybes phase 90 with mods rebranded as a vibe.

I just hope folks know what they're getting into and realize that getting a pup is not a small decision.

Me too. My wife an I are at the half century mark and the kids are gone....
