Cool video, sounds great & useful, question, would this be similar to putting an ''ART tube pre-amp'' on your pedal board, and if that was possible where on your pedal board would you insert it. Cheers & thanks.

10:39 prolly since you used a magnet with the north and south pole on the flat sides not the thin edge.

Would a transformer work to step up the output of for example vintage pickups with few winds? Or just increase the output of regular pickups in general?

Ive tried this worked great!! Thank you so much. You are so talented and explained very well

It sounds like a frustrated can opener.

“We don’t need that chuck it” 😂😂😂 brilliant. I replayed that part several times.

The difference is quite evident listening thru headphones. Thanks for making this video, it is something I will do to my Bullet as well.

Looks like I got fooled there is no build information here just "look what I did" video. COME ON MAN!

Just a note to folks (I still have to watch this video) Dont know if you addressed this issue. My mod is still in the planning stages but some forums have expressed concern that the monotron mostly works with 5v and checking documentation tells me that both my NIFTY CASE and Microfreak go 0-10 volts by default. the freak has a 5v setting so thats my girl. If you go into say a SAW1 and a SQUARE2 pad with two CV voltages will that make it paraphonic with the two oscillators. so many questions. I need to make a breakout board. Trying not to fry it.

ITS A DREAM COME TRUE! [I had to go get my other laptop so I could sign in and comment] I have been stumped as to how to hit the pitch in as most of the supposed tutorials on OG Monotrons and a DUO has no pad marked PITCH but those six SAW SQURE and pulse 1 and 2 and after another week of dead ends with reddit and youtube I did actually think to myself " I wish Clementine would do a Monotron duo video" and SURE ENOUGH the right search terms got me here and as soon as I saw ""solder cv pitch in to the saw2" I knew I was in the right place. Thanks for all the good work, I am working on a Tom Scholz MARS rig based on your tube preamp video and whether it works or not I'll be posting a full vid giving you full credit of course!

Damn that was an impressive video. I stumbled upon your z-coil video when stuck in a rut of ‘guitar building and modding is expensive’ ++inspired This is a project that’s now jumped to the top of my play time bucket list.

That bridge mod is GENIUS! I picked up an old Teisco a few months back and the bridge is one of the worst parts of the thing.

I smoke 2 joints in the morning! I smoke 2 joints at night! Yeah I heard that! Good stuff man.

Thank you, your videos is not far away from science. Thank you, they are satisfying.

You tried humbuker sized p90 pickups

The only fault of ceramic pickups is being cost wise cheaper than alnico. Full stop. Sounds wise ceramic is no less valuable than the counterpart. But human beings think that more expensive is better in all fields: clothing, automotive, music... So, unless you like the alnico sound because imprinting, personal taste, ceramic is no less musical! I did the same mod replacing the ceramic bar with a Neodymium one, which is stronger from a gauss standpoint, not for a bad opinion on ceramic but just to tweak a cheaper pickup and try something different

You changed the sound, but it's not the same as a pickup designed with an alnico magnet. The magnet, windings, wire size, dimensions all work together. Taking a pickup designed to use a ceramic magnet and installing an alnico magnet will not make it sound like a pickup that was designed for an alnico magnet. It may sound better, it may sound worse, don't know till you install and play it. Everyone has their own preferences when it comes to tone, would be a boring world otherwise. Just don't expect a miracle.

I need to fabricate a different shaped backing plate for a P90. Now I'm dealing with option anxiety 🤔 There really is a marked difference in them. I was tempted to use aluminium but thinking steel or brass might be closer to standard, now I'm looking at copper and maybe a bass cut pot 🙄 it's going in a neck position of an old hollow body with a 59 PAF style in the bridge. Good video.

Hi I have Jackson Warrior WRXT MIJ 2007 on basswood with Jackson 580 bridge with Duncan Design Detonator HB108 b/n. I want change bridge pick with DiMarzio Super Distorzion. I dont know which is best connect and wired. I want bright chrisp harsh sparkly sound not bassy and muddy. Well I really dont know what is best opnion How I know paralel is quiet and series is more bassy so booth is not what I need. I dont know how is tone with one HB in bridge is it better than HB b+n and how must connect him. Realy dont know how guitarist like George Lynch, Waren D Martini or EVH have wired pick ups.I cant find in web. ​What is your experience. Which way would be best for me. What do you think. Thank you very much kind regards

That dokken riff tho

Alnico sound too glassy and thin to my ears. Kinda prefer the ceramic ones.

Incidentally they got even more famous than the legendary NS1000Ms.

Next Humbucker Junior you get, just rotate the humbucker so the screw poles face the neck and then raise the screw pole 3/16ths inch. That gives a chunky beefy P90 tone .. and is reversible if you ever want to go back.

Nice detailed review!!!

They should put those in a Les Paul Jr, and call it a Les Paul Senior!

Alnico with the Klon boost gets you right in that bell-like ballpark. Very cool.

Sounds pretty great actually. Didn't expect that.

ur good ppl

amazing description of compression.

Loved this video, especially the bit about ice cream. It's frustrating to go on guitar forums and see 90% of people chasing a sound from 50-60 years ago. Not that there's anything wrong with those sounds--like you said, vanilla is good--but there's much more out there than Hendrix and Led Zeppelin. We need to reference the past without being stuck in it.

Original P90's were 10k wraps around a single coil, original PAF's split the difference and put 5k wraps around each coil, so unless this HB was like 16k DCR wouldn't one coil be half the required wraps for an "authentic" P90 spec? I like the "air coil" idea suggested by others and not meaning to pick holes in your project, you may not have been going for authentic and by all accounts a single coil flanked by 2 magnets is mostly P90-esque but it's not the full equation 😅

The spider thanks you for fixing its hidey hole. Also scotched brite a crank shaft on an Oldsmobile station wagon. Filled crank case with Prolong and full synthetic Mobile One. Drove it 75k more miles. Sounded like hammers in a gold mine. Still ran until the trans went out. Funny as hell commentary!😂😂😂 I use Prolong on all my electric motors. Stuff works!

Brass saddles?

Great video! The way you do it the differences are easy to hear. Here's something to try; stand one of those neodymium bars on edge, insulate it, and wind up a strat pickup on it. Keep up the good work.

It all turns to smoke? Might not want to breathe that in.

Why do we use pole pieces in our pickups?

I'm trying to work out if I can make a P90 Z coil pickup that would fit on a humbucker base plate. I may have to use the wide ranging HB base to fit it all in.

Great video 🙏

Great video! I miss my ns10s!

Thanks man really nice job! appreciate you taking the time and your ingenuity have a great day!

Lube the screws with old bar soap. Help w/breakage.

Brake work implies this thing will roll.

I’m hearing the opening to every Bugs Bunny cartoon in there.

I loved the tone, but then again I love butt pimples, so I am not a good judge. JK, I dug it. I used to make impromptu cone repairs with paper soaked in white glue and water mix to thin it out. Cut to fit the tear and glue it up. Works a treat an lasts a good bit too

Could I do something like this for a diy Reamp box?

So would you still benefit from this build if you don’t have a tube amp? Or will this still have a net benefit?

Camphor is an ingredient in some celluloid formulations, so that nut is probably made of celluloid. Be aware that celluloid and camphor are both extremely flammable, so dont emulate the classic Keith Richards "lit cigarette stuck into the peghead" thing!

All is about different magnetic field shape and strongness. And how copper winds placed in it. Thats hard to describe without painting it ) Humbucker rib magnet make a less rich wide range sound than Single flat magnet, for example, because of that. Single flat magnet gives more wider and stronger magnetic field. More space of string react with it. More harmonics of string disturb this wider and stronger magnetic field. As result, copper winds produce a more complex and stronger signal from extra parts of string. Thanks for yor channel! ))☀️🌿✨ And may the Force be with you ))

I love les paul juniors there my favorite guitar ❤😊
