I use the same Kester - it's great

The first thing I ever built was the BYOC "confidence builder" which was basically a switch and a pot.  Doesn't really do anything but served its purpose and was a great idea for a kit

This is for something different, may or may not be useful

Thanks - that's what I'll do.  I had an order probably 6 or 7 years ago, same thing happened.  Figured I'd give it another shot, thinking maybe it would be different.  It's a shame - he has a lot of cool stuff.

I'm a few months in, no responses to anything.  I think PayPal has a six month window for refunds, but I would much rather get a box of parts if it will show up eventually.

Check out The Word with Robert Randolph and John Medeski.  Randolph is kind of like the Derek trucks of pedal steel

I hope they continue sourcing / stocking all the weird old stuff like Steve did

Post 10000: I am officially announcing I just bought Small Bear

Hopefully he sells it instead of just going away.  They provide a great service

I have tickets to a concert on Monday, I think I may just skip it.  Seems too risky.  I didn't know Ticketmaster now has a feature where you can resell your seat right through their app, so they get the service charge multiple times

At those prices, I wouldn't be surprised if people start making fakes.  Solder, goop, spray paint.  Way easier than faking a Rolex.  Until we start seeing Klonn or Kllon

Having everything controllable with an expression pedal is great.  Some of these have so much circuitry they're literally heavy

I have a couple of these - they are ridiculous.  You can plug them into each other and just play with oscillations. The only downside is they are really big.  I think moog has killed that entire product line in the last year or two
