Below are a few links to sites we have used for either information or parts for some of the projects we have documented on this site. We've only posted a few here so far - hope to get this list updated periodically...


Music Supplies

A good local source for music supplies in general (strings, picks, cables, effects, equipment rentals, etc).

Amplifiers

A good source for mod kits for a number of popular tube guitar amplifiers.
A good source for JJ tubes for guitar amplifiers.

Guitars

An interesting site with info on guitar wiring.

Microphones

A good source for microphone mod parts, as well as full mod kits, mic capsules, and complete custom mics.

Electronics

A good source for electronic components. We got most of our parts for the mic mods (other than the capsules) here. Good selection, and, generally, no minimum quantity limits.
Another good source for electronic components. Good selection, and, generally, no minimum quantity limits.
Another good source, particularly for audio electronics and speaker components.

Software

An open source, free, Photoshop like image editor. Versions for various opererating systems are available, including Windows, Mac, and Linux.

Solar

Nice site that will calculate the sun's position for any date and time of day for any location. Calculates sunrise and sunset for a given date, and position and inclination for a given time of day.
South Mountain installs and maintains solar systems. Back in 2019, they swapped out our array meter with one that is capable of auto reporting production to the state, and helped with the paperwork to get that setup.
