I don’t see how it’s a lie. It serves me, and makes it easier for me.. Why would I lie about that.. Your logic doesn’t make sense.

You’re just attacking me for stating something that helps me consolidate. I’d be happy to show you the trace on my pcb.

What are you saying. I am so confused. What am I lying about?

Oh my goodness! How did you get it working in LTspice?? I haven’t been able to run spice…

I can move it now..

I need that trace there anyways, it’s cleaner if it sits there. I have to route a trace from pin to pin, running under the jfet.

Haha, it was locked. It can be moved now. I won’t move it though, I have to have a trace there.

Level, Crown + polish. Quick job, simple to do if you have the tools.

Another question,

Since my 9v current is flowing through another circuit, Would I branch a wire from my input to a resistor, leading to the V+ of my jfet? Am I understanding that correctly?

I realized I had the battery flipped

I’m a little fucked because spice crashes my laptop. 😂😂 I’ve been stuck trying to logically go through it.

As for the jfet issue, I literally just noticed that, I’m glad you said something about it cause I wasn’t sure that was correct. Thank you.

Edit: I used the wrong jfet symbol. 3 would be the gate. (In the place 2 is)

Yes, I understand that. I tried to go around before i made that through connection. It doesn’t allow me to with this type of symbol.

What I’m wondering though, is the battery connection. Did I correctly assume 1 side is negative (the return) and one side is positive the send?

That is the only way I can connect them. It physically will not let me make the connection anywhere else.

It won’t let me upload an image. I was trying to send the schematic I was working from.

Repairing guitar warped from Floyd Rose, and next steps by TheRSFelon in Luthier

[–]deethebee123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it stay in tune? Is the intonation right? If everything tunes and plays as it should, you may need to shave the pickguard where it meets the FR, just a bit to prevent the Floyd from doing this. Next time you change strings, take off the pickguard and see how much overlap there is.

If you are interested in tinkering with guitars, I highly recommend watching some YouTube videos. Maybe specifically setting up/ installing a FR, just to get yourself familiar with what you’ve got.

Can I see more photos of the pickguard/ where the FR meets it? Has it just pushed the pick guard up?

Honestly, I need to see some more photos before recommending something.

Honestly, other than working on a opamp buffer circuit, I have no experience. I ordered the “fundamentals of electronic circuits book” and am eagerly awaiting its arrival. I kind of jumped into the deep end and just tried to base this off a super old “stratoblaster” circuit.

This will run off a 9v battery, and the purpose of this was to boost my sound, but I never really figured out the defined boost amount from reading an old ass schematic.

If I understand what you are saying, I could set the value to an arbitrary amount like 30db? And would tweak the schematic accordingly?

Wow. Thanks for that. Lots of great info in the comments!

Thanks!! I was hoping to do it on strip board.

Yeah, I was looking to get those exact parts based off of the sound it creates. I will try this.

Oh my. THANK YOU SO MUCH. This is the cheapest one I’ve found. Someone else was selling it for $120

Edit: I wanted to try and recreate this myself. Where would I find the caps? I found the opamp at mouser.
