Just started listening to that, coincidentally. The Fretboard Journal's main podcast is worth a listen too.
Sparky-
I had a rush of blood to the head and subscribed to the print mag last year. It's ok.. loads of stuff about gear that's the wrong side of marmite for me. And tbh the writing is annoying as well. A lot of it is from that overly sincere style that veers dangerously close to guitar lore live-laugh-laugh lovery. A lot of hot guff about not much. I'm struggling to articulate it but i know it when i read it. Half the copy reads like a Jack Daniels advert. It's def aimed at conervative nostagic boomer americans.

I've been wanting to start a build or conversion for ages too. Looked at kits last year but the budget didn't stretch to the ones I was jonesing for.
Started listening to this podcast last year which can be great -although it seems to be into diminishing returns now. There's only so many times the same guy can recommend buying a Variac and powering things up slowly...
