Hi Greg,
 
    I saw that you were offering you help at a meeting!  If I remember correctly you build gits and amps.  Can you put together a half hour presentation?
 
    We have setup a meeting for Sunday,  1 to 4pm, February 16th at the Strum Shop.  I will not announce the date until I have setup the program, so let me know asap.
 
Thanks,
 
Will King

Hi Greg

Great stuff on your page

You got it happening!

Hey Greg, yes the VCC is your 9v + side, use either of the 2 grounds for the 9V - or input - sides. I use a stereo plug so it acts as an on off switch, so I just use 1 ground lug for both 9v & input.

Hi Greg,

The Second Ever Sacramento Area CBG Get-Together is going to be held next Sunday afternoon (Jan 13th, 2013) at The Strumshop in Roseville.

Hi Greg - thanks for your comment - they seem to work quite well and I thought it was better to drill a small hole by the eye rather than have the strings pass through the headstock,  Best, Phil.
