There's a couple of PCBs I want from deadendfx - anybody interested in splitting shipping? I think they've had issues in the past shipping to the UK so they'll only ship super fancy fast tracked and it's $48...I'll just pay it if need be cos one of them is a pretty years clone and I need that in my life, but if anyone wants anything, good chance to save on shipping...

Oh wow - that is monster! I'm pretty tempted by the Pompei, but I think my PCB build backlog now exceeds my likely years remaining. I think I still have a deadendfx board to make, though I can't remember what it is... good luck - someone must want something!

Being a fan of Bob Weston's grinding/snarling bass tone in Shellac, I've just ordered a TS-50B kit from Musikding - https://www.musikding.de/TS-50-Bass-Preamp-kit

 

I believe it's pretty identical to the Tronographic Rusty Box bit with a toggle switch instead of a foot switch for the boost function.

 

It's the first time I've ordered anything from them - Has anyone had any experience with Aion/Musikding?

 

Cheers

I haven't, but thanks for the share - that's a really interesting circuit, never seen anything like it. It's like a dirty version of the Trace dual band compressor, only with three bands and clipping instead of 'nice' compression.

 

That 'middle' control - I can't see how it could do anything other than cut the bass as it's turned anticlockwise. Fully clockwise C7 and C8 are out of circuit and the preamp goes straight to the tone stack. Am I missing something?

 

Also a Shellac/Jesus Lizard/Big Black bass tone fan. I believe a Rat might also be an ingredient of David Wm Sims' tone.

 

cheers

Aion two kits and Musikding countless times... takes a week or so sometimes to put it in the post but it's good. (and a few days to reply to emails)

I think I've just laid out a Prunes and Custard for a Gorva M45 with all top jacks! So that's just slightly wider than a 1590a size!! :o 

 

Also found having a batch of 10 screen printed isn't crazy expensive 

though of course I would kinda be fun to get UV printing and do a small run... but of course it's also mad and a pain in the bottom - why would I even think of that?

Musikding are good - bought a few things from them. Aion I've seen on there site for years so I guess they must be at least ok or they would have dropped them due to support issues?

Aion are great - boards are good and documentation is always very good. Good to order from directly as well - they're US based but shipping isn't too bad and Musikding don't sell their bare PCBs anymore. 

 

Musikding also great - quick despatch and I've never had any customs/import issues post-brexit. Never had a kit from though TBF, I usually buy bare PCBs.
