Amerikkka v2 Multiscale semi hollow design 1″fan

Posted on by

V2 semi hollow design. Piezo circular pickup inside or in neck pocket. Added toolpaths, Must be careful when cutting the chamber and not go too deep. Good thing about heavy ash is that it is strong. I will be able to cut a lot out.

Much progress on Silent kill switch. Bishop Vogue created a silent box using LDR resistors. Its so quiet, no popping, I will try with some ldr’s I bought from Amazon. Should come in soo.

Here’s another I found using regular resistors http://www.muzique.com/news/simple-kill-switch/

Kill switch
This is a simple passive kill switch that can be constructed in a tiny box like the 1590A or even smaller. The circuit is symmetrical so either jack can be the input or output. The resistors were added to make sure that the output of the circuit driving the switch was not shorted to ground, which might cause a problem with some designs. Use a normally-open momentary switch.
Kill switch 2
A 5k potentiometer can be added so that the amount of signal reduction can be adjusted. In the first version, the signal will be cut completely off when the switch is closed but the version with the pot can be adjusted so that some signal still passes through when the switch is hit.
If the circuit pops with your pedal, put a 2.2M resistor across the switch terminals (from one switch lug to the other).
The circuit is non-critical but a shielded box is still recommended.To lower the pop, try putting a 10M resistor across the switch terminals, i.e. from one switch lug to the other.
Different wiring options, may add one that turns on blacklight when flicked on and add black paint that will shine when clicked
