Happy New Year!
Wow, another year is already over!
The last few months have been pretty quiet here at planetz, as I’ve been insanely slammed at work.
I have so many planetz projects started, but have had so little free time to finish anything. Hopefully that’ll improve in the coming months.
Here are some of my current projects that are either nearly done, on the way, or in the planning stages:
- a comprehensive audio/video comparison of the Vox AC15HW1 and AC15C1 amps
- a video how-to installing an on/off LED in a Proco RAT pedal while preserving true bypass
- lots of pedal DIY stuff including an overdrive pedal inspired by the Fulltone OCD
- some more guitar tweaking videos like push/pull pots, TOM bridge replacement, etc.
- a comprehensive audio/video comparison of pickup magnet types
- perhaps even some woodworking stuff- restoring an old rusty Rockwell band saw, building a set of drawers for the kids, etc
Wishing you all the best for a happy, healthy and prosperous 2011.
Rock on!

Can’t wait for the ac15 shootout. Are you ready to add a 12ax7a comparison to your to do list? If you’re up for it I’ll put in the order (and send you which ones I want to try).

Sounds like fun. But wait a bit til I knock some of these other ones off my to-do list 🙂
I have hours of video already shot, waiting to be edited down into 10-minute youtube-friendly chunks. The first part of the AC15C1/HW1 comparison is nearly edited. Then I have the cabinet comparison to do. 🙂 So it may be a little while.

Don’t worry, I was thinking Feb/Mar timeframe. Should I assume you’re going to NAMM?

Yes indeed, NAMM is just a couple weeks away!
