Here is a video on the 7-string Flying VII (Roman numeral 7!!) that I am building for Tim Steinruck. Today started with some unsoldering of the Theremin circuit. I trimmed the wires and tinned them. When I went to solder the first of many wires, it seemed some solder was left in the pads on the circuit board. I tried a few different ways to clear the solder blockage, but nothing worked. So, I will break open a new Theremin kit and use a clean circuit board so that I will be able to use the prepared wired components from the first kit.
I am not even sure this idea is possible, combining a passive pickup circuit with an active component. My logic says the 9-volt Theremin and the passive pickups could be mixed together with a blend potentiometer before going to the output jack. That is how I see it working, anyway.
I then looked at a few options for mounting the circuit board in the control cavity. But it looks like there will need some routing, as well as a custom pickguard.
Up next, I will be finishing up the Theremin kit and giving it a test run. It should be pretty fun!!
Stay tuned ... more to come!!!
