Artic les and such from Jon Bla ckstone:
Distortion 101
Forget what you know about gear for a second, and focus on the actual physics.
Inductance
and the many reasons you should know about it.
What's a MOSFET?
and should you care?
Teach your neck pickup to twang.
Turn your guitar's 'tone' knob into a bass control.
My first attempt at short-form content, the "Tip of the Week" series:
"Dual-Range Guitar" is the hybrid instrument Jon uses to play bass and guitar at the same time.
The Band Name Engine. A little web app that Jon made in the 90's that generates band names from random words.
We'll be adding more articles, product intros and reports on Jon's experiments here. If you'd like to be notified when we do, sign our mailing list.
For a while Jon was using Instagram to post gear tips and show-&-tell from around the workshop. You can see them here.
