Drawing software and a question for ChrisK

[sumgai]

Chris,

After seeing some of your other postings, I'm not surprised in the least that you're also into AutoCAD. ;D Far too expensive to go out and buy for stuff like this, but if you've already got it, what they hey, right?

Question:
You also said that you've got a diagram of your AmDlx SSS w/S1. Would you be willing to compare notes with me on that? I'm wondering if my 2005 is the same as in years previous. If so, let's start a separate thread in the Schematics sub-Forum.

sumgai,

Well, I've picked up a bit of "clutter" in my wandering aboot the planet.

AutoCAD (full suite as well as LT), MathCAD, Maple, Mathematica, Pro E, PCAD, solids modeling, yada, yada, yada. Whenever I do a start-up, I put all of the licenses in MY name!

Sure, on the Am Dlx SSS S-1 Strat (I musta got a great price on S's, eh?) The was/were some change(s) on the SSS wiring. I bot my first one in Feb 04. I traced the circuit and found the following modes:

5. N
4. N+M
3. M
2. M+B
1. B

and

5. N*M
4. (N+sC)*M
3. (N+B)*M
2. (B+sC)*M
1. B*M

SC is the “special cap”. I think that it’s 0.03uF. It is a cap, I just don’t know if it’s all that special.

I bot another one (the 50th anniv. model) last summer, I think that it's the same.

You can get to the diagram on the FDP Forum. I'm "yetanothermidlifecrisis". Men have mid life crisis' BECAUSE WE CAN!

Ask away!
