Members Bob411 Posted January 16, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 It sounds great for what it is. It doesn't do clean, but I don't think he misses it. The speaker magnet is hot melt glued to the back of the box, so the face of the speaker isn't right up against the face of the box, and that adds a little more "fuzz". He just goes to a public school, Tri point Jr. High in Piper City, Illinois. He is in 8th grade. He did it in enrichment class. Enrichment class where they send the smart kids, that they don't know what else to do with. Part of the class, they decide what they want to work on. He has also wound a single coil, and is still working on a humbucker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
