Ibanez AD9 analog delay pedal. I had to blow it apart like this. Otherwise no access to the component side of the board and there is zero silk screen on the backside.
Wanted to give a shout out to Bryan K. He gave me this function generator about 6? years ago maybe. It needed a tiny bit of rehab but has worked great for me for years working on my audio projects.
I have several O-scopes (Tektronics, Hitachi, etc.) but for doing audio level debug I always go to this cheap hand held scope. I think I paid less than $100 for it.
I think that is the first time I've seen any of those complete kits for under $ 3digits shipped. I'm sure they are nothing to write home about SQ wise, but I'd get it for the building experience and novelty of it's function.
There are several versions to choose from with varying prices. Adding Bluetooth, vu meters and such. The two basic ones still show $55+$36 shipping for me. Either voltage.

Approaching single digits with 40-50mph wind here right now, lots of blowing snow.
I wish you'd keep that stuff to yourself. The noon weather report said it's our biggest temperature drop since 1936. It's currently 26 and dropping fast.
Currently stormy and 61 at 3:40am.
When I get off work at 1pm, it will be 30 and snowing.
Welcome to Indiana, wait 10 minutes and the weather will change. Not a wonder that family, coworkers, and friends are dealing with illnesses. Flu B and the stomach bug are going around at the moment.
Ortho visit tomorrow and a couple exciting interviews for maintenance management positions on Friday - both possibly life changing events. I've been trying to get back in to maintenance management since the average wage for that position has skyrocketed in the last few years while safety wages have essentially stagnated. Plus safety is boring when things go well.

Good luck. Maintenance is tough, despite your best efforts stuff will break, then break again. Then the scapegoat for not making production numbers. Yeah I can see why wages are up. It's tough to find people to run a shop let alone qualified electricians to repair equipment and deal with the inherent stress. Definitely not boring.

So when word gets out that you can fix musical instrument stuff.... more stuff starts coming your way

Dry (clean) output channel works but wet (processed) channel has no output.

Thank You Bryan!

Scratch that... I found my receipt. I paid $119 for it 5 years ago. Unfortunately it's around $199 or more now
Hell, that would make my shoulders sore anyway.
It was a no flannel, ride the motorcycle back to work after lunch day here. I took the long way home tonight and saw lots of people out on bikes.
Is anyone surprised?

I would love to see Scott run that amp through it's paces. You can't even buy a pair of small SE output transformers for $60 in the US.
Car washing was part of my should rehab

Anyone catch that the big thing in the center is just an LED lightbulb?
But then I spotted this:

Yep - E27 is just a lightbulb socket.
It very well could be part of mine, as well - just going to wait and see what the doc says Thursday morning.
Drew, make sure you had 110V selected, as the prices went up.

Yeah, I was never bored for the 7 years I did it, that's for sure. I am pretty good at stress management, except for boredom induced stress.
All looks good for a man my age and workout/job/martial arts history meaning some wear and tear. Diagnoses indicates very little tearing of the cuff.
Severe impingement is what she called it.
Did you get the T/S parameters so we can model it for proper excursion limits?😛
