Dimitrios,

This is for the GC8 that came with the 220V R-880 that I got from you. I
am currently interfacing another GC8 that is using a 110v PSU, but I got
this one here in the US on EBay. Wouldn't the one that came with the 220V
R-880 require a 220V PSU as well? I am interfacing this R-880 with a 220V>110V
transformer.

Thanks,

Naaaa.......just trying to get a second unit working as a backup in case
I ever need it.

;)Hey DJ,
NO.
You only need to feed 9V to the controller.
It does not matter if your primary voltage is even 1000V !!
So you only need to buy a good 110V primary 9V secondary rated at 1200mA.
JUST CHECK polarity !
Behind the controller there must be an evidence of where is the plus going
and where the minus.
Just be sure , whatever power supply you use that polarity is the same.
You will not burn anything because there is always some kind of protection
with diodes inside the hardware but if it does not lit when connected then
you must have put it wrong.
Cheers,
Dimitrios

but that's the "way it's done."

I like that chord and use it fairly often, or variations of it. If you
really need to mute that 5th string, Bill's fingering worked best for me,
but it's more natural for me to grab th
