17? Shit, dude. Just use any and every crappy piece of gear you can get your hands on until you can afford nice stuff, like everyone else did. And "dissecting" and modifying electronics is clearly far beyond your capabilities. You could get seriously hurt. Take an electronics class at a local...

A Boss Metal Zone pedal into anything is great for instant "shitty metal band" tone. Get yourself a good, cheap tube amp. I just got a used Carvin MTS-3200 for $300 that rules. Beautiful, deep, glassy tone. Louder than I could ever want. My normal pedal rig sounds astoundingly better going into...

Mercy kill this thread, please.

Yea. How about some sort of official declaration/tutorial of TnC approved repairs/mods? The information is so scattered at this point, and all this technical information goes over most of our heads. Sure, those of us who can solder and are capable of replacing circuit board components are...

True. Less ambiguity would be nice, though... for the good of the group buy and future group buys.

I definitely am. I just hope next time (if there is one) that everyone is made to agree to a Group Buy EULA so everyone understands everything and there can be no bitching after the fact.

I guarantee you Digidesign wouldn't have been sending out replacement power harnesses to anyone with a bad Digi 002 if they were going to be liable for some moron electrocuting himself. Not to mention, I seem to recall Alan Hyatt himself suggesting mods for Toft ATBs at least once or twice.

How can TnC be made responsible for someone screwing up a mod, when there are companies like Paia and Seventh Circle that base their entire company on having the customer do the electronic work? Sounds like bullshit to me.

Hey man, I'm all for getting to the bottom of it. But without all the negativity I've been seeing here and at GS. Seeing as I'm hoping there is another group buy down the road, I'd love to see all the issues get fixed... but of course it's going to take time.

Yes. Very. Others seem not to be. And given the circumstances, I can understand why. However, I think perhaps there should not have been any sort of implied or written warranty. Maybe Chance should have said "purchase at your own risk". Then maybe those with high expectations and the inability...

I don't pretend to know what happened between Chance and his tech and the manufacturer. Personally, I don't care who came up with the schematics, because either way it's going to to be a Neve clone/Neve inspired pre. The issue with the previous group buy being shut down had nothing to do with...

Yea, I kinda always thought this was just an innocent exaggeration. I don't really need a big LA engineer's endorsement to be interested in a product anyway. I think this was because Chance was originally trying to keep the manufacturer's indentity under wraps to avoid comparisons between TnC...

All I know is, I don't want to be Chance right now. I'm sure it was a big enough pain in the nuts to send everything out in the first place (which isn't even done yet), and now he may well have to get a whole bunch of stuff to send back and then pick up and re-distribute. Not to mention all the...

Chance, let me say: TAKE YOUR F*CKING TIME, MAN!! :D Seriously. We are all adults with patience. I hope.
