My Locals Community on Amazon Fire

I was asked by a member @Nige earlier why my Community doesn't show up on his Amazon Fire. Here is what Locals Support told me:

"Your community has not yet been added, which is why your supporter can't find you on FireTV (so, it's not a tech issue). I'll go ahead and reach out to the Locals team about getting your community added - it appears to meet all criteria, so most likely will get added but I just need clearance from someone higher up first. I'll let you know once you've been added. You can tell your supporter in the meantime he can try casting to his TV from the mobile app using Chromecast (for android) or Airplay (for iPhone)."

Sarah at Locals Support has been amazing so far about addressing all my issues, so I look for this to be resolved soon! Stay tuned!

Modding a Hiwatt DR504

This is a video response to Tone Priest's question about modding a Hiwatt clone build. If you are a paid member here on Locals and have tech or other questions, I'll be happy to give you a similar video response when I get time! Thanks so much for all your continued support.

1931 Gibson L1 Extended Jam

This was the full jam session on the Gibson L1 I did recently. As you probably know, I usually will jam for a while on something and then pick a few highlights to show in a final video. A ton of stuff got edited out. It's not all great, but it's not all bad either. I find it kind of soothing, this quiet acoustic stuff. I'm never sure where the mood will take me.

10 Minute Crash Course in Open Tuning and Open D Licks

I made this quick video the other day for a friend and figured I'd post it here as well. He wants to get started in slide, so I was quickly showing him some open tuning concepts to make the transition to slide a bit easier. Kind of like learning slide without a slide.

Why Do Billy Gibbons, Brian May, and EVH Have Such Distinctive Tone?

This is probably the most overlooked aspect of your guitar tone hiding right under your nose.

What's going on here, fellas? On both these schematics the OT plates get B+ DC like normal through a bridge rectifier but check out how the screens and all the preamp tubes are getting juice. There appears to be a second tap off the secondary of the PT which goes through a choke, has a couple filter caps than straight in. How is this getting rectified???
