I'm quite interested in building my own pedals. For the first one I was thinking about an MXR Microamp. It seems rather straightforward, doesn't need that many parts... I guess I could get it together for about 30 or so euros. What I don't know though would be where to get the casing? I have websites for everything else (General Guitar Gadget for the diagrams and Banzaii effects for the parts: advise if you know better!). Also if you have any idea about simpler pedals... But I think I will need a boost sooner or later :P

Tele Pickup Advice Needed
Hey guys, I wanna change the pickups in my MIM tele but i'm having trouble deciding what to put in the bridge. I've settled on a Vintage Stack in the neck but i just can't decide between a Lil '59 or a Hot Stack in the bridge. They all sound great individually on the soundclips but i'm not sure what would go together best. Does anyone have a guitar with a Vintage Stack in the neck and either of the other 2 in the bridge so they can make a recommendation? (or maybe sound clips?)

Does anyone use
a jazz pickup in the bridge position? I always hear of people using them in the neck but not the bridge.

Like a Fender!?
I have a Peavey Classic 30 that I like. It has all JJ tubes and a Reverend All-tone speaker. It's a nice clean sounding amp with good tones....but...

Resistors and Capacitors on an Invader
As some of you may remember, I'm working on my first customising project at the moment, but I'm still aquiring parts. I'm making what I have now discovered is a Tom Delonge style strat, with a single Invader in the bridge and a 500k volume pot.

Most versitile amp?
Title says it all really. I've become really fed up with my Marshall JTM 60 and want something new. I rely on a lot of pedals for a wide variety of sounds. I want something that will do everything well. What do you think?

Need a SingleCoil that plays like a Humbucker
I'm really a Humbucker person, all around, but I have a H-S-S Ibanez S-Series guitar. I was going to upgrade the single coils when I replaced the Humbucker.
