I cheated and used AI to save typing but this is the 'real' rock top ten (in layer years the first side of 2112 became a staple): The "Friday Rock Show" top 10s from the classic Tommy Vance era on BBC Radio 1, consistently featured epic rock anthems like Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven" (often #1), Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Free Bird," Deep Purple's "Child in Time," Rush's "Xanadu," Rainbow's "Stargazer," Pink Floyd's "Shine On You Crazy Diamond," Genesis's "Supper's Ready," Yes's "Starship Trooper," and Deep Purple's "Smoke on the Water", with slight variations depending on the specific listener poll or broadcast date in the late '70s and early '80s, highlighting progressive and heavy rock. The year that sticks in my mind (because I listened with my first serious girlfriend) was 1982: Led Zeppelin - "Stairway to Heaven" Genesis - "Supper's Ready" Lynyrd Skynyrd - "Free Bird" Rainbow - "Stargazer" Rush - "Xanadu" Deep Purple - "Child in Time" Yes - "Awaken" Deep Purple - "Smoke on the Water" Pink Floyd - "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" Rush - "2112"

I have a Honhner Vineta. 48 holes Everywhere will tell you it plays three chords F, C, G. It also plays the root notes as bass tones (two reeds). On 'suck' you get the fifths so (I think) the chords C7, G7, D7. 99% of web sources don't realise this.

That's a great selection.

I think it's the PSU at risk, rather than the pedal. Regulators aren't perfect, so whichever gives the highest voltage will do all the work until the load drags its output down to the level of the next one and so on... Whether this causes issues depends on several things. If they are just tied internally (in which case you may as well just use one of them) or if they are just a single source and isolated by diodes then you'll be fine. If they are truly isolated and floating, success will depend on how well they are matched.

Just noticed... he seems to have completely missed that the Joyo has a gain knob....

Good luck. My experience of seeing someone about technique was they only wanted to teach theory.

How do these doublers work? If they are just commoned wires whichever output has the highest voltage will be doing nearly all the work.

I have a high power solder station with temperature control now, means I can use a 1mm bit or a point and work with smd or tackle larger stuff with ease. But it costs six times as much.

If I only had one iron, I'd paradoxically choose a smaller one, as you'll cause more grief overheating delicate electronic components than having to spend 30-40 seconds getting a pot case up to temperature. YMMV.

It was slow with the 15W antex, but doable with patience and a 4mm tip. I did it many times in the past.

Can you have toneplugs?

£35. https://www.antex.co.uk/store/p/m12-w9wdk-mg96e-y7lr5 Get one of these and a cheap stand off eBay. Mine lasted about 40 years.

Essential repair?

Mine will be used for work from time to time as an alternative to over-ear protectors when feasible.

That is eminently sensible... I went with plain transparent as I don't want to draw attention to them, which I may regret.

How many dB attenuation can I get with one Jelly Belly? Will two Jelly Beans double the attenuation?

It blew the felt off of a third of my workshop roof 😞

On Friday the second song on the setlist was 'Walk in my Shadow'. Alex called 'Walk in My Shadow'. Not long after, having played a bar of Walk in My Shadow in Gm, I seamlessly transition to The Hunter in Am which is what Alex and Paul are playing...

You've seen the colour of my earwax!

Now I have decision paralysis!

The IEM thing made me ask, but I am thinking of investing in earmoulded plugs.

Lots of licenced Fender merch turns up in Tesco and Asda, decent quality at good prices. I just happen to be wearing this...

In six month's time the 'super portable' rig will be the size of an Ampeg stack with all the add-ons...
