Hellzero Posted July 20 Posted July 20 Unsolder that red wire for the moment as it's the power (tension) for the LED, so not really mandatory to check the circuit. Clean these solders as they have a lot of tin. 😉 And try again as the red LED should only turn on in active mode when wired correctly. If it's working without the LED shining as it's not powered, just take a multimeter and check where the power is located and that'll be it. 1 Quote
Hellzero Posted July 20 Posted July 20 Also check if the ring and tip are not reversed on your stereo jack (looks like a cheap model). 1 Quote
Rayman Posted yesterday at 16:15 Author Posted yesterday at 16:15 This project was a real struggle. It’s been here a couple of months, in bits mostly, and it put up a fight all the way through. I got it for peanuts, probably because the guy knew it was goosed. So, I ripped out all the knackered active electronics and binned them. I spent WAY too long trying to get them to work. Today, I turned it passive…. CTS pots, orange drop cap etc…. and now those EMGs absolutely sing. Piano like tone when played with a pick, lovely neck, very nice to play and well balanced on a strap. Maybe it’ll make an appearance at the next gig? A bit 80s like, but f*** it! 😉 8 Quote
Rayman Posted yesterday at 16:16 Author Posted yesterday at 16:16 So it’s basically a B2 now. 1 Quote
PaulThePlug Posted 23 hours ago Posted 23 hours ago Had a play with a B2 a while back Well worth replacing the 3 plastic washers on the tuner screws with a F4-10M Thrust Bearing (4 for about £5) for smoother tuning. Mine is wired Single Vol after a 3 Way Pup Selector. 1 Quote
