The OT would suit 4x EL84 valves into 4/8/16 ohms, but I think it would also work with 2x EL84 if I use the 'wrong' secondaries - I really need to get some advice on this before proceeding.
The cabinet will need to be completely re-covered - not looking forward to that part!
One guitar build, got the wood and most hardware but not quite sure what shape it'll be.
Some repairs and refins to do.
One pedal build underway.
Mostly will be working on the Land Rover though at least for a few months so prob going to be delayed from my own builds unfortunately.
@hywelg now that's a project! Hats off.. and good luck with it.
So, goal one of the year is record more (my old drummer and I are working on a low-fi Americana album we’d like to finish). Goal two, keep messing with fuzz pedals at some point as I’m never happy with them and maybe just maybe keep a mind to another partscaster.
Replace bathroom.
Repaint walls and ceilings in 7 rooms.
Replace garage roof.
Repair house roof.
Reorganise workshop, and build a better workbench.
Rewire cellar.
In between all of this I want to:
1. Build another headless guitar. This time with Tele pickups and wiring, and hex synth pickup.
2. Integrate a guitar synth into my live rig.
3. Build a second guitar. No idea what.
.think of something else to use last piece of purple heart - maybe a paul to go with the purple sg I made her indoors
.get round to making a strat from scratch with new templates
.think of something to make with last 2 pieces of zebrano.. I have 2 guitars worth of decent quality parts to use
.she wants a V now, so I'm planning a shipwreck looking one like Hetfields esp explorer
.possibly attempt making new fretboard for poor old burns ... or just get some advice from a professional.. probably be disowned if I ruined grandads guitar
I had cut it down to 2 homemade guitars but I'm sure it'll be 3-4 again within a few months
damn you that awesome feeling of completing & playing a homebrew guitar

Since they’re a bit pricey and rare, I figured I’d build my own with the cheapest tweed amp/cab I could find:

and a cheap clock mechanism from amazon. Will see if I decide to keep the amp inside, or just gut it.
Then I want to finish my Tele thinline.

- Rewrite the forum software
- Release the bad's album and tour it (HahAHahHAHHAhahahAHAhAa)
- Get the forum YouTube channel off the ground
- Put the Luminlay dots I bought at the beginning of the year into my self-build Nuno-alike.
- Put together a cheap-ish low-power bench drill to put the Luminlay dots in
- Re-think my Arduino-controlled pedal-based multi-effects idea
- Build it
- Lay a patio in the back garden
- Replace the fences around the front garden
- Replace the rear arches on my Puma (think this one will end up being somebody else paid to do it...I can learn things quick, but I think welding might be a step too far)
Think that's it.
