Technical Articles
I've been fascinated by electronics ever since I was a kid. Occasionally I get interested in some small aspect of guitar amp design or electronics in general and I dig into it, sketching out circuit ideas and making calculations and running simulations and building prototypes. Sometimes I get so excited about an idea that I write a brief article about it. That's what this page is for. If you're an amp builder or are interested in electronics, you might find something interesting here.
