Anyone have experience with the Celestion G12k100 speakers?
I can get a pair for around 100$.
I play baritones loud.

Do any Mini Tuners pass a signal, even when the tuner is engaged? I want to put a mini tuner on my oscillator box, so I can visually monitor the pitch. So the signal needs to pass through when the tuner is on.

I haven't tried them, but by reputation I would hit that as a likely fit. Supposed to be Celestion's closest model to an EVM-12, with great headroom and extended response (that is, more and clearer bass). If I saw that deal, I would buy right now for the rig I'm slowly building.

Oh that looks like a good suggestion, except I don't see any used ones for sale (and hoping to do this cheap). It doesn't even have to be an accurate tuner, just close.
Edit - I see Behringer makes a Boss TU2 clone, and Hotone has a mini tuner. Sorry to take up bandwidth

I've always liked the broadcasts, they have this low gain but still supersaturated tone that I don't hear too often. I've always wanted a two channel one but they always go out of stock quickly or are release when I lack funds.

I've been curious to try one, but more importantly those knobs are rad.

Yeah, they're a victim of their own hype at the minute. I got mine a batch or two before it really blew up. I'd like to try some of his other stuff but it's not cheap and the broadcast is so good, I don't really *need* much else.
It's not very a complicated build though. If you or a mate are happy to knock out a clone, it'll at least let you know if it suits you... and whether or not you actually want the 24v charge pump, which seems to be the more popular version lately

I want to get some end caps for a daisy chain, so the unused plugs don't short out my pedals. Godlyke sells them but they're like a buck apiece when shipping is factored. Can't we get them cheaper, if we buy them as industrial supply?
Here's a sample link:

It seems like the Boss style barrels are 5.5mm diameter (?) external. I see these, but maybe they're too long (15mm, while it seems like the Boss barrels are 10mm):

Not sure what size I'm looking for, to be honest. I don't want them so tight that they don't slip off.

What about just using some heat shrink tubing?

The only drawback for electrical tape is the gross residue left after it's been on for a while through hot days.
