Re: Volume Pot issue Harmony Transformerless Tube Amplifier

It may not be a volume pot issue at all.
I'd go through the updates and then see what happens.

Re: Metal triangle picks

Re: Metal triangle picks

Hope you find it!
Even if I found that one...it was thin.

Re: Metal triangle picks

Not sure of the vintage status because I have hundreds of Tortex picks. The small green Jazz III Tortex pointy is my current favorite. I like them worn down so I don't have to replace them very often. Helps that I don't put them in my pockets too. I tend to carry picks in my mouth! When I say "parts...

Re: Metal triangle picks

Too clanky sounding so I did not keep it.
I think.
Might be in a parts bin.

Re: I F'ing Hate Home depot!

Neighbors go crazy over my Memphis-style dry ribs. No damn sauce. Crispy outside, melt in you mouth inside. And yes every cross country drive includes a visit to places in Memphis, including the Beale Street Blue's Boy's restaurant. Mine match up. I like mine dry as well. Just to show off? Maybe! A...
