Hi Mark
about those geom games: I was just playing about.. sorry. Wondering whether make sound holes or what to do. Finally I chose make 3! as I jut posted, but I'm still not sure. I will be able to say something about that when I finish and I try to play. Thanks for your mess.
Hi Mark, good to meet you too, my knowledge of actual cicuit design is very limited. It sounds like you have studied it deeper than me already. I see someone has replied to the cap on pin 7 question. As for the input, I don't know either but could it be some sort of d.c. block to protect the i/p ?
I have recently acquired an oscilloscope and intend to do some experimenting with different components to see what effect they have on the o/p signal. I need a signal generator first though. Sorry I can't be more helpful.
Cheers mate i was also pleased with the sound john produced , i wish i had the B***s to get up and play myself , maybe next year - i have some tunes i recorded on my profile page - the first tune that plays is the Distorted Plank which was recorded using the first Plank i built for hollowbelly plus theres tunes recorded using the reso and the four string mayorga with the Alloy tail
Thanks again and good to have you as a freind

Thanks for the freinds request , thanks also for your great comments on my guitars , it was a great weekend cant wait till the next one
Thanks again
juju.
thanks for watching the video and for your kind words. yeah, i just use an open G tuning, (g,d,g,b). I just kept listening to the zep's version trying to get it down, he has a few more hammer on's and pull off's, but he's got six strings....and he is Jimmy Page.

I've just posted a pic of my amp on my page.
The valves are the 12v ones originally designed for car radios such as the 12U7 and 12K5. There's stuff on the web.
