I went to the link. It says it is a signup but it is a survey to gather information to build the course from. I filled it out because I would like to see something like this happen.

Yeah I signed up a long time ago now. I'd actually forgotten about it until I saw this thread. I've not heard anything or send anyone else talking about it since I signed up.

Yeah, it appears to be in development. Hopefully Brian will chime in soon. Definitely looking forward to it.

In the latest Chasing Tone Podcast, Brian mentions that he’s been hard at work on the course. Hopefully we’ll hear something soon.

@Wampler Pedals any updates on this? I’m jonsing for some lead solder fumes.

Lol I'd forgotten about this again until I saw your post.

Looking forward to learning about making, and modding circuits.

Sounds cool, are there any firm dates or details?

Nothing that I’ve seen so far. Only mentions in the Chasing Tone Podcast.

Well, it looks like it’s progressing. I just received an email that an example module is live:

A few months ago I mentioned that I was working on a DIY pedal course and it would be ready around the end of March.

Well, good AND some bad news. The good news is I'm about half done with editing and I have an example from one of the modules up for you to check out:

https://www.guitarpedalcourse.com/courses/how-to-design-overdrive-circuits-for-guitar-pedals-for-beginners

Click "about this upcoming course" and if you're logged in you'll be able to view it.

The bad news: I originally thought this course was going to be about 2 hours long in all. Right now it's looking about twice that in all - but it's a very in depth course, broken up into topics/short chunks so it's easier to take it all in, as well as much more organized than anything else like it. I'm guessing it's about 2 more weeks away or so from being ready for release.

Anyway, check out that video if your curious and I'll probably put a few more up this week as well as examples.

Thanks,

Brian Wampler

PS...I'll be selling some breadboard modules as well that will help with creating these circuits in the course. While it isn't 100% necessary, it does make it easier to breadboard. Right now I only have about 50 in stock, so if you want one please let me know asap so I can order parts for the next batch, which should be ready about the time the course is done:

I was just coming to post this. I'll check the video out later tonight.

That's a really easy video to follow for anyone who hasn't used a breadboard before. It'll be interesting to see what the final course looks like. I'm not sure how deep he'll go and how much info that I don't already know I'd actually get out of it.

I’m guessing that it will be a beginner course.

Yeah probably. I'll have a look when the course is released just to see what it looks like. I'm definitely not an expert by any means I'm mostly wondering just how basic it'll be.
