This is soooooo cool! I have been looking at getting a startech rack for my servers, but none of them are perfect, but this would be amazing. However, I neither have the skills or the tools, so I guess I have to find another solution. Great video though!
Very good video, fun and informative. I have a few guitars with under saddle piezo’s and onboard preamps. Do you think it’s possible to plug the Journey (that I liked best) into such a preamp? The sound might benefit plus you would have more control and a tuner.
Hi from Spain, I thought your presentation was excellent. I had no idea which was which, I thought your fingerpicking style was great and made all three sound really good. I was tempted to replay and I think from a practical point of view playing live with vocals, "C" with just a mic. at the fretboard is not possible, but for recording I would always use two mic's. For playing live I thought "A" sounded as close to the natural sound of your fantastic guitar. I wonder if the 3 pickups on the Journey could be increased to 6 smaller ones precisely located, picking up the vibration of each individual string, and would that improve it further? Great and very professional video, John.
Great vid! Thanks for posting. I've made a couple of cabs in the past but I like to watch several videos to get as many ideas and pointers as I can, and your video did that very well! Going to build another 4x12 soon. Thanks!
How did you secure the bridge? or is it pressed by the strings and removed when you loosen the pegs? I repair guitars, but I want to try to make them myself. There is a video for inspiration. greetings from Russia 🇷🇺
It is basically just held by the string pressure but I added very very tiny dab of glue to keep it from getting bumped especially during string changes.
Ive got an old Alvarez by Yairi and the installation approach from K and K is the same as JourneyTek)...Didnt like that I could not see what I was doing. Also my bridge was tucked up close to the X brace so just enough room for the 3 pickups. This worked flawlessly and I was able to see exactly where ea pickup was installed! Bravo!
There's a tree in my grandmother's yard that probably isn't too long for this world, so I have my heart set on getting some wood for guitars! Thanks for the encouragement!
Hey Merwin, I have a Line 6 Spider V mk2 60 watt guitar amplifier but I am trying to connect it to an external speaker but it doesn't have any kind of speaker output connection at all.... What are some ideas, tips, tricks, and information you could help me out with?
Why not just add a switching jack? When nothing is plugged into it, the signal will go to the internal speaker. When a speaker cable is plugged into it, the signal will be routed to it, and onto the external cabinet. No need for a manual "internal/external" switch.
yeah why you took those cd's without using aol is pretty weird, but AOL is dead so just throw them away, you're worrying about literally garbage. they're only usful if your stranded on an island and you need it to signal ships for S.O.S. like that tom hanks movie
